I'm Dennis Dupree from Danville,
I've moved into your town.
Dennis Dupree from Danville,
I'm here to take a look around.
Get this across,
Dupree is boss,
There must be somethin'
Happ'nin in your town.

I went down to the street, babe,
To look at the flashing lights.
I lived down on the street, babe,
Nothing there is out of sight.
Get this across,
Dupree is boss,
There must be somethin'
Happ'nin in your town.

I went down to the drug store,
To buy myself some shades,
What do you think I found there?
A girl who was quite the rave.

What's the matter with your town?
The sights and sounds are dead.
You treat me like a poor town,
When city life is in your head.

Get this across,
Dupree is boss,
There must be some-thin'
Happ'nin in your town.
Ah.
