You can call it buck and wing or You can say that old soft shoe Anything you call it's the happiest dance to do If you think tapping while you dance is antic Take a look, you'll see, it's been updated Modern styles swing That's the tapping of tomorrow All you do is plug in and go, go, go, go! When I hear that crazy rhythm Gonna dance away my blues 'Cause I know the time is right To put on my crazy tapping shoes!
