Archie Bell & The Drells

Say man, they tell me you think you're pretty good

They tell me you're pretty fast on your feet

So I want you to meet me at the dance hall

On Market Street, you hear

There's gonna be a showdown

There's gonna be a showdownj, showdown, oh yeah



I've got ten notches on my shoes

When it comes to dancin

I just can't lose

They call me the top cat in this man's town

So I want you to meet me before the sun goes down

There's gonna be a showdown

There's gonna be a showdown, showdown, oh yeah



All the girls are losin faith in me

Don't seem like top cat's great

As he used to be

I know I'm good

So you better be better

When you get out on the floor

You better have your steps together

There's gonna be a showdown

There's gonna be a showdown, showdown, oh yeah



Now my reputation has been one of the fastest men alive

So I'm gonna see how good you are when I count to five

(One) oh man, you better stop

(Two) You can do better than that

(Three) Man will you move aside

(Four-Five) And let me get out here and do my jive

There's gonna be a showdown

There's gonna be a showdown, showdown, oh yeah
