New York Dolls

(There's Gonna Be A) Showdown

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
