Well, I#39;m a hoofer#39;s daughter and that#39;s what I#39;ll be.br /
I shuffled my way to Asheville, N.C.br /
Up into the mountains and across the hillsbr /
and byways.../p
p I can hear him count, tap two, three, four,br /
ldquo;Now that#39;s what I#39;ve been looking for.br /
Practice your steps and you#39;ll go far,br /
my dear.rdquo;/p
p I went back home the other day;br /
made my way back to the Frisco Bay.br /
Daddy can you show me how you shuffle and slide,br /
not too long and not too wide.rdquo;/p
p And Daddy won#39;t you show me how Bojangles did It.br /
You#39;d better hurry daughter, cause I only got a minute.br /
Got to get back to work and drive that Muni Busbr /
today./p
p Cause I#39;m a hoofer#39;s daughter and I#39;m proud to be;br /
Still shuffling my way through Asheville, N.C.br /
And up here in the mountains where the bears roam free,br /
I can still hear tap, one, two, three./p
