showman dan

Madeleine Peyroux

Hey papa stop swappin pop, talkin shop
Let the beat drop and do that dance
Shake it up, break it up, long as you can wake it up
It s right in your hands
You ve got to know you re the man
Go on and show em, Showman Dan

You re playin it cool baby
whoop you re a hoot and I m in the loop
I got the scoop when I saw you swoop on down
Startin a love affair to fill the air
and people come from everywhere
To drink up your sound
You ve got to know you re the man
Go on and show em, Showman Dan

High in the sky there s a spot light right on ya
Shining as it follows you round
My oh my, first you make them cry
Then you turn every frown upside down

Oh daddy, what a treat
you turned a mean city scene into a sweet street
Down home groove
Feet tapping, trees clapping
branches in the breeze slapping
Backbeats deep and smooth
You ve got to know you re the man
Go on and show em, Showman Dan

Swing it high, swing it low
Wherever you been, wherever you go
It s ringing true, it s ringing through
However you do what you can do
You ve got to know you re the man
Go on and show em, Showman Dan
High in the sky there s a spot light right on ya
Shining as it follows you round
My oh my, first you make them cry
Then you turn every frown upside down

Oh daddy, what a treat
you turned a mean city scene into a sweet street
Down home groove
Feet tapping, trees clapping
branches in the breeze slapping
Backbeats deep and smooth
You ve got to know you re the man
Go on and show em, Showman Dan

You ve got to know you re the man
Go on and show em, Showman Dan

You ve got to know you re the man
Go on and show em, Showman Dan
