What the Boss wants, the Boss gets.

Springsteen, 62, and daughter Jessica, 20, waltzed to the saxophone solo of "Dancing in the Dark" in front of 10,000 fans during his July 5 concert in Paris after he begged her to come up on stage with him.

At the end of the dance, Springsteen carried her back to her seat, shouting to the roaring crowd, "That's my little girl!" according to Rollingstone.com.

Springsteen's gesture is reminiscent of the 1984 music video to "Dancing in the Dark," when he pulls a young Courteney Cox to the stage for a dance.

Jessica, Springsteen's daughter with Patti Scialfa, is making a name for herself in the equestrian world, having made it to the reserve list of the U.S. equestrian team for this summer's Olympic games.

Springsteen is currently on the European leg of his tour with the E Street Band. If you can't get enough "Bruuuuuce," here's his performance of "E Street Shuffle" with equally ubiquitous musicians The Roots.
