Mark Knopfler - Back on the Dance Floor lyrics

[Mark Knopfler - Back on the Dance Floor lyrics]

Hand me down my high roller Stetson
Hand me down my smokeless 41
We’re gonna look so sharp when we walk in
They’re gonna be jazzed we come

We’re going for the major comeback
For the motherlode, the mighty score
We’ll be the toast of every
Knocked out boogie shack
Now we’re back on the dancefloor

Going all the way is the only way to go
The only game in town
Shake your moneymaker closer to the floor
Shake ‘em on down, shake 'em on down
Hand me down my two-tone wingtips
Hand me down my skull head walking cane
You all gotta wear them
Shantung gambler suit's
They’re gonna be jazzed we came

We’re going for the major comeback
For the motherlode, the mighty score
We’ll be the toast of every
Knocked out boogie shack
Now we’re back on the dancefloor

Going all the way is the only way to go
The only game in town
Shake your moneymaker closer to the floor
Shake ‘em on down, shake 'em on down

We’re going for the major comeback
For the motherlode, the mighty score
We’ll be the toast of every
Knocked out boogie shack
Now we’re back on the dancefloor
