It Ain't What You Do (It's the Way That You Do It) - Fun Boy Three

It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it And that’s what gets results

It ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it And that’s what gets results

You can try hard don’t mean a thing

Take it easy and then your jive will swing

It ain’t what you do it’s the place that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the place that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the place that you do it And that’s what gets results

I thought I was smart but I soon found out

I didn’t know what life was all about

But then I learnt I must confess

That life is like a game of chess

It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the place that you do it And that’s what gets results

You can try hard don’t mean a thing

Take it easy and then your jive will swing

It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the way that you do it And that’s what gets results

It ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the time that you do it And that’s what gets results

It ain’t what you do it’s the place that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the place that you do it It ain’t what you do it’s the place that you do it And that’s what gets results
