No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years, oh
And it won't mean a thing in a hundred years, yeah
Just keep on walking like I don't care
But no matter how hard I may try
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years
And it won't mean a thing in a hundred years
Then I excuse myself but they think I'm rude
Well, if she shakes her head, well, then that's okay
Another lost little boy in a big old town
But why you're giving such an evil eye?
And it won't mean a thing in a hundred years
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years
There's just no accounting for some people's taste
Big angry man in the doorway there, yeah
Tourist don't want me to end his show
And it won't mean a thing in a hundred years
I want to laugh, I want to cry
I tell a few lies but my hunger is real
Play in the park for tobacco and food
Sit at the pier, watch the sun go down
It won't mean a thing in a hundred years
But this colorful attraction got places to go
I watch her walk away in haste
Could it be you were ignored by every passerby?
No, it won't mean a thing in a hundred years
I've got a long way to walk, can't afford my next meal
Mademoiselle, tell me do you play?
