lyrics

swingin’ for crack by dean/liberatore/rodgers music mint bmi

if you’re looking for a way to meet some chicks
my method will do the trick
see arthur murray or fred astaire
you better learn those steps and comb your hair
buy some two-tone shoes and a suit to match
it won’t be long (be)fore you’re pullin’ snatch
you’ll be
dancin’ for trim, swingin’ for crack
a sure fire plan and that’s a fact
a dancin’ fool that’s a sharp dressed man
that’s a winning combination in demand

now buckhead bobby is short and fat
dancing girls don’t care about that
they all know this simple thing
it takes two to make it swing
he’s out numbered, three to one
he knows that girls just want to have fun
so he’s
chorus...

don’t you worry. no need to hurry
everything’s gonna work out fine
swing your baby. treat her like a lady
you’re gonna have a real big time
so get up! throw down!
let that music send you right out of town
wise up! get a life!
believe me, brother. this ain’t no hype
get off your ass! get on your feet!
you never know who you’re gonna meet
your future wife, a one night stand
all things come to a dancing man

well if you want girls on you like white on rice
you better listen to my advice
a dance floor’s like a fishin’ hole
if you want to catch fish you got to bait your pole
go find the first flower leanin’ up against a wall
swing that baby, and have a ball
you’ll be
dancin’ for trim, swingin’ for crack
a sure fire plan and that’s a fact
a dancin’ fool that’s a sharp dressed man
that’s a winning combination in demand
