Stomp!
The Brothers Johnson
Words & Music: Johnson - Temperton
Steppin' out the weekends open wide
Fill it up let's blast the jams and ride
While we're cruisin' around in the street
Listen up for the party in feet
Slap me five that's the place we've arrived
it's alive
Ev'rybody take it to the top we're gonna
Stomp all night wanna party
Till morning light
Runnin' runnin' runnin'
The set is hot there's people wall to wall
Old gones young things short ones standing
tall
Grab the one with the smile on her face
And hit the floor and stay right on the
case
The heat is on and the funk just won't
leave us alone
Ev'rybody take it to the top we're gonna
Stomp all night in the neighbourhood
Don't it feel all right gonna
Stomp all night wanna party
Till morning light
Stomp step down in it put your foot
Where you feel the fit
Stomp you don't want to quit
Put your heels where you're feeling it
Stomp all night in the neighbourhood
Don't it feel all right gonna
Stomp all night wanna party
Till morning light
