West End Blues - Carolina Chocolate Drops

So tall and slender

Daddy was a charmer

He was a handsome man

But when he’d move it

Lord the ladies lose it

Daddy was a dancin' man

When he was dancing

Daddy swept the floor

He called it siftin' sand

So light and graceful

Not a step was wasteful

Daddy was a dancin' man

And when the young men

They’d come a-courtin'

They’d try to take my hand

They’d buck and wing

But it didn’t mean a thing

'cause Daddy was the dancin' man

So tall and slender

Daddy was a charmer

He was a handsome man

But when he’d move it

Lord the ladies lose it

Daddy was a dancin' man
