Fosse Ensemble - Fosse (Original Broadway Cast Recording)

I Wanna Be a Dancin' Man

I wanna be a dancin' man,
while I can.
I wanna leave my footsteps
on the sands of time
if I never leave a dime.
Never be a millionaire, I don't care.
I'll be rich as old king Midas might have been
Least until the tide rolls in.
Let all the men build mighty nations
or stairways to the sky
I'll leave a few creations
To show that I was dancin' by.
I wanna be
free as any bird can be
Yes indeed.
I wanna leave my footsteps on the sands of time
If I never leave a dime
A dancin' man
With footsteps on the sands
Of rhythym
And rhyme!
I wanna be a dancin' man
While I can!
I wanna leave my footsteps on the sands of
Time!
If I never leave a
Dime!
Never be a millionaire
I don't care.
I'll be rich as old King Midas
Midas, might have been
Least until the tide rolls in.
Let all the men build mighty nations
or stairways to the sky
I'll leave a few creations
to show that I was dancin' by
I wanna be
Free as any bird can be.
Yes sirree!
I wanna leave my footsteps on the sands of
Time!
If I never leave a dime,
Show that I was dancin' by!
I wanna leave my footsteps on the sands of time!
A dancin' man!
Of rhythym!
Uh-huh!
A dancin' man
A dancin' man
A dancin' man
With footsteps on the sands
Of rhythym
Ah!
And rhyme!
Sands of time (of time)
Sands of time (of time)
Sands of time (of time)
End
