The Gangster’s Groove Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I’m the boss of the beat, got my hat tilted low,

The rhythm’s movin’, I’m ready to go.

With my suit pressed sharp and my shoes on fire,

I walk in the room, and the jazz takes me higher.

[Pre-Chorus]

The trumpet’s blarin’, the bass gets loud,

The gang’s all here, we’re swingin’ proud.

Don’t mess with the groove, it’s a dangerous thing,

When I’m in the mix, it’s the gangster’s swing.

[Chorus]

It’s the gangster’s groove, smooth and sly,

Catchin’ the rhythm as it passes by.

With a tip of the hat and a wink of the eye,

We’ll swing the night away, you and I.

[Verse 2]

I got my crew in tow, we’re makin’ our move,

The sax is blowin’, we’re in the groove.

We’re dancin’ close, we’re livin’ fast,

In the gangster’s groove, it’ll always last.

[Pre-Chorus]

The trumpet’s blarin’, the bass gets loud,

The gang’s all here, we’re swingin’ proud.

Don’t mess with the groove, it’s a dangerous thing,

When I’m in the mix, it’s the gangster’s swing.

[Chorus]

It’s the gangster’s groove, smooth and sly,

Catchin’ the rhythm as it passes by.

With a tip of the hat and a wink of the eye,

We’ll swing the night away, you and I.

[Bridge] (Instrumental Break – Sax Solo & Tap Dancing)

Ba-da-da, doo-wop, shoo-bee-dee-doo,

The gangster’s groove will see you through!

Step to the left, slide to the right,

We’ll swing it all day, and into the night!

[Final Chorus]

It’s the gangster’s groove, smooth and sly,

Catchin’ the rhythm as it passes by.

With a tip of the hat and a wink of the eye,

We’ll swing the night away, you and I.

[Outro]

So keep it cool and keep it clean,

In the gangster’s groove, you’ll reign supreme.

With every step, we’re livin’ large,

Swingin’ through life, we’re in charge.
