The Big Man's Bear‑Dream Boogie

Lyrics

[INTRO] Piano keys click, the crowd’s alive, it’s another night at the club. The lights are low, the air is sweet, and the bartender’s pouring buzz. [VERSE 1] Papa Joe walks in, the room just lights up, He’s the big man, the king of the tap. With a grin and a pocket full of coins, He’s still a stud, though he’s cheap with his toys. [CHORUS] Papa Joe, Papa Joe, he’s the big man we know. He’s a stud in the night, but he’s cheap in the show. He sleeps like a bear, on a couch in the hall, We all love him, and we’ll shout it to the wall. [VERSE 2] He’s got a laugh that’s as deep as a well, He’s got a swagger that tells a story to tell. He’s cheap, he’s sly, he’s the master of tricks, But his heart beats like a drum when the crowd starts to mix. [CHORUS] Papa Joe, Papa Joe, he’s the big man we know. He’s a stud in the night, but he’s cheap in the show. He sleeps like a bear, on a couch in the hall, We all love him, and we’ll shout it to the wall. [BRIDGE] When the moon’s up, and the city’s still humming, He takes a breath, and the rhythm is coming. He’s got a story that’s still fresh on the floor, All that matters is that we’re standing to the core. [CHORUS] Papa Joe, Papa Joe, he’s the big man we know. He’s a stud in the night, but he’s cheap in the show. He sleeps like a bear, on a couch in the hall, We all love him, and we’ll shout it to the wall. [OUTRO] So we’ll toast to the big man, the king of our town, With a melody that keeps our feet on the ground. Papa Joe, oh he’s the one that we see, Let’s keep the beat and keep dancing with the big man’s melody.
