The Tango King

B. r. 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 she's going back again

Just to give a good cold shoulder next time



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



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, and the truth is found with a

Drink in hand

Kings of lounge, and 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
