Say man, they tell me you think you're pretty good Don't you know you're in my neighborhood They tell me you're pretty fast on your feet You best be at the dance hall down on 14th street, you hear
There's gonna be a showdown There's gonna be a showdown I've got ten notches on my shoes When it comes to dancin'
I just can't lose They call me the top cat, right in this man's town I just want you to meet me, baby, before the sun goes down
There's gonna be a showdown There's gonna be a showdown
All the girls been losin faith in me Don't seem like top cat's great As he once used to be I know I'm good
So you better be better When you get yourself out on that floor You better have your steps together
There's gonna be a showdown There's gonna be a showdown
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 step (Two) You can do better than that (Three)come on baby,you better step 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
