GOIN' DOWNTOWN
by J. Koterba, Copyright 1998
Daddy's goin' down, downtown tonight / goin' down with his dancin shoes
Daddy's goin' down, downtown tonight / he ain't got nothin' to lose
He's got a new haircut, a brand new suit / he's wearin' his daddy's old tie
He hopes that he mights see her / but if he don't he's not gonna cry
Daddy's goin' down, downtown tonight / goin' down with his dancin' shoes!
Baby's goin' down, downtown tonight / flyin' as free as a bird
Baby's goin' down, downtown tonight / she don't care what she's heard
She's got a new dress, some sweet perfume / he's the one who said goodbye
She hopes that she don't see him / 'cause if she does she might want to die
Baby's goin' down, downtown tonight / flyin' as free as a bird!
Daddy wants to swing around tonight / swing around the floor
Daddy wants to swing but he don't know why / his feet won't move anymore
His head's in a twirl, his heart is a jumpin' / his body is achin' inside
Now he hopes that he don't see her / if he does he might want to hide
Daddy wants to swing around tonight / swing around the floor!
Then she sees him by himself / standin' all alone
His head looks kinda heavy, legs kinda shaky / standin' there all alone
He says "hello, how are you" / and, "how have you been?"
Before she can say, "Hey I'm OK / they're out there dancin' again
Swingin' around, around tonight / swingin' around the floor!
They swing and they hop, they jived and they stomped / 'til the night turned into morn
They kissed and they cuddled, but they didn't wonder what'll / they do now that they're untorn
To patch things up is not an easy thing / even for these kids of swing
Such a good start to open their hearts / they're out there dancin' again
They swing and they hop, they jived and they stomped / now let's hear that horn!
They swing and they hop, they jived and they stomped / 'til the night turned into morn
They kissed and they cuddled, but they didn't wonder what'll / they do now that they're untorn
They swing and they hop, they jived and they stomped / 'til the night turned into morn
They swing and they hop, they jived and they stomped / 'til the night turned into morn!
