Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Clean shirt, new shoes
And I don't know where I am goin' to
Silk suit, black tie (Black tie)
I don't need a reason why
[Chorus]
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
[Verse 2]
Gold watch, diamond ring
I ain't missin' not a single thing
Cufflinks, stickpin
When I step out, I'm gonna do you in
[Chorus]
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
[Verse 3]
Top coat, top hat
And I don't worry 'cause my wallet's fat
Black shades, white glove
Lookin' sharp, lookin' for love
[Chorus]
They come runnin' just as fast as they can
'Cause every girl crazy 'bout a sharp dressed man
[Outro]
You can't lose with the dress I use
That's right, real fine
