Select language to translate this lyric
No one came to criticize
No one to complain
Just to pass a little bit of time
Play some human games
Some were smoking 'Roll your owns'
While others they had none
Everybody was holding hands
And singing this little song
We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night
Then when things were happening
Around about ten to four
There was a screeching of brakes
Dogs barking outside
And a hammering on the door
Then the voice of officialdom
Saying, Open
in
the
name
of
the
law
But we just kept on holding hands
And singing this song some more
We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night
Then they broke down all the doors
And kicked the windows in
They let their doggies off the leads
And they ransacked everything
They stood us all against the wall
Their faces split with grins
And then they linked each others' handcuffs
And they merrily began to sing
We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night
They took us to see the county judge
With a wig hat on his head
He heard our case with a smile on his face
And this is what he said
I'll have to send you all to jail
For doing this terrible thing
And as I walked down to the cells
I swear I heard him sing
We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night
We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night
We can swing together
'Cause we feel we're doing it right
We can swing together
We can swing all through the night
