lyrics

Look at you, on the dance floor tonight
Every move you make is clean outta sight
With just a little touch of savoir faire
Like Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire
I’m a bein’ with a bombshell
No buntah she fo sho
And I ain’t no Charlie neither
Cuz I’m her daddy-o

(refrain)

She’s fading in and out like the Cheshire Cat, meow
Steel-eyed stare with a tip of her hat
Listen up hepcats, killer-diller, kopesetic, let me tell you where it’s at
Where’d ju learn to dance like that?

She be cuttin’ a rug
While the fat cats with their dough
They can’t buy her love
Cuz like I said, I’m her daddy-o
Zoot suit, hep cats, not bent, Cadillac
Bust loose with the cats and the chicks
Creeps out like a shadow
No jivin’ with an ickeroo, NO!

(refrain)

Frisk those whiskers, and lick those chops
The Gabriels are sounding good tonight
Hit some Armstrongs, play it hot
The joint is jumpin’, it’s a jammin’ spot
But no one stops to lookin’ at her
She’s dinner, she’s a barrelhouse
She’s a mess, she’s a blip, she’s ready
Reap this righteous riff

(refrain)
