Lyrics

Well, when the night falls
Way down in Savannah
Well, you can find him down on Fourth Street
Hidden out in the night
Ran into his good time buddies
Never gonna need no rest
Walking round in his dancing shoes
Gonna put em to the test
Look out, world
Cause here he comes
Moving through the night
The kids are looking for the good time
There`s a lady
And she`s standing in the corner
But she`s a little but shy
She needs some coaxing on the dance floor
But pretty soon
She caught his eye
Now he`s moving in
Beauty`s shy
But in her eyes
She starts his head to spin
He keeps up all the dancing
Starts them both to swing
Now they`re getting to a good thing
He is the king of Savannah nights
The inspiration
The ladies delight
You could not catch him
If you wanted to try tonight
He is the king of Savannah nights
The inspiration
The ladies delight
You could not catch him
If you wanted to try tonight
He is the king of Savannah nights
The inspiration
The ladies delight
You could not catch him
If you wanted to try tonight
