**[Intro]** Hey, Daddio! Show ’em how it’s done Everybody up— One, two… One, two, three, four! **[Verse 1]** Saturday night, music loud You were moving before the crowd First on the floor, last to leave Getting everybody in the groove I was your little buddy, right at your side Matching your outfit, wearing mine with pride I didn’t know it then, but I know it now You taught me joy by showing me how **[Pre-Chorus]** You put the fire in my feet You put the heartbeat in the beat When the music starts to play I still move the Daddio way **[Chorus]** Do the Daddio Shuffle Let the rhythm run free He put the beat in my body Put the music in me Do the Daddio Shuffle Let your whole self move I got it all from my Daddio He’s the one who gave me the groove **[Post-Chorus]** Slide to the left Bring it on back Two quick steps And give me that clap Roll those shoulders Let yourself go That’s the Daddio Shuffle Now you know! **[Verse 2]** Dancing turned to music, and music turned to me Every bright little spark I put on my name Every room I move through, every crowd I light Every beat that brings a little more life tonight You remember your buddy tagging along I remember my hero teaching me strong You’re the greatest man I’ve ever known And so much of me comes from what you’ve shown **[Pre-Chorus]** You put the fire in my feet You put the heartbeat in the beat Every dream I’m dancing through Still carries a piece of you **[Chorus]** Do the Daddio Shuffle Let the rhythm run free He put the beat in my body Put the music in me Do the Daddio Shuffle Let your whole self move I got it all from my Daddio He’s the one who gave me the groove **[Breakdown / Dance Call]** Now slide—slide Take it back Step—step Daddio clap Turn around Then strike that pose Keep it smooth That’s how Daddio rolls! Slide—slide Side to side Little more soul Little more pride If you feel that rhythm Let the whole world know— My Daddio started it A long time ago! **[Bridge]** I’ll always be your little buddy You’ll always be my hero And every time the music finds me There’s something you should know It’s more than just a shuffle It’s the rhythm inside me From the little boy beside you To the man I came to be **[Final Chorus]** Do the Daddio Shuffle Let the rhythm run free He put the beat in my body Put the music in me Do the Daddio Shuffle Everybody find your groove I got it all from my Daddio He taught my soul to move Do the Daddio Shuffle From the ’70s to today As long as I keep dancing Your rhythm never fades **[Outro]** Slide to the left Bring it on back Two quick steps And give me that clap I’m still your little buddy You’re still my superhero And every time I dance… I’m dancing with you, Daddio **The Daddio Shuffle!**
