The Tango King Lyrics - Bruce Hornsby

Parking lot's full, the crowd's here 

All to see and hear the food and beverage seer 

Bumpin' time, everyone side to side 

Left allemand and do-pah-so time 

Here she comes, coming 'round the bend 

Been to the bathroom and going back again 

Fix her hair, oh baby powder that shine 

Just to give a good cold shoulder next time 

Been around town and we're going again 

Hallelujah, when you get to the end 

The summer's come now don't you feel the sting 

All going down looking for the tango king 

Look at Pete, he's a lounge hand 

All want to stand where he stands 

Spin that girl 'neath the colored ball 

Fancy plaid man's the envy of all 

Been around town and we're going again 

Hallelujah, when you get to the end 

Summer's come now don't you feel the sting 

All going down looking for the tango king 

All the sounds, truth is found 

With a drink in hand 

Kings of lounge, button-downs 

Are coming back again 

Coming back again 

Been around town and we're going again 

Hallelujah, when you get to the end 

Walk on cut glass wouldn't feel a thing 

All going down looking for the tango king 

Been around town and we're going again 

Hallelujah, when you get to the end 

The summer's come now don't you feel the sting 

All going down looking for the tango king
