Eddie staggers forth He stutters on a brew can He wink and a smile He looks like something Lee Marvin spat out His black face all twisted up Hey let's go over to Pop's and have a party We jog along with his weird accent Hey yeah Smashing his fist on the door Pop lets out a yell now he's shimmying round the sofa "hey Smoke turn that record over and let's all dance" Eddie's dance Everybody laughing and pa**ing round the drinks Linda lights up a cigarette And Billy threw up in the sink Eddie shouts "hey gimme that draw man"
Why don't you turn up the ba**" Jimmy's juggling gla**es And Mike fell asleep on his face Hey yeah That's Eddie's dance You'll find him down the stairs at Angelo's With the girls all intertwined Or on the corner of Westbound Park Shouting deals along the line He'll be spinning yarns in the Golden Cross He'll keep them all amused but when it's late and you gotta roll You'll catch him down the blues That's Eddie's dance I said let's all dance To Eddie's dance Come on come on
