Lyrics
I know a man who moves so well
but he don't take the floor
makes you boogy-woogy
shimmy and shake
till you can't stand no more
He can jazz it up
and rock you down
sticks pausing in mid-air
tips off his high hat
kicks into song
and grabs you with his snare
(chorus)
He's polyrhythmic, almost scientific
in the way he moves a groove
he don't need to leave his seat
to show the rhythm in his feet
cuz he's a dancer on the drums
(guitar solo)
(chorus)
You can catch his act around the town
in cafes, grills and bars
or you can tune it in
and turn it up
on the stereo in your car
he's got more charms
in his arms
than any man you'll meet
but you can't dance with him
and you can't dance without him
'cuz he's the back bone of the beat
(chorus)
