Stepping out The weekend's open wide Fill it up, let's blast The jams and ride While we're cruising Around in the street Listen up for the partying feet Slap me five, that's the place We've arrived, it's alive [Chorus] Everybody take it to the top We're gonna stomp all night In the neighborhood Don't it feel alright? We're gonna stomp all night Wanna party 'til the morning light Running, running, running The set is hot There's people wall to wall Old ones, young things Short ones standing tall So, 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 [Chorus: x2] Stomp, step down in it Put your feet where You feel the fit Stomp, you don't want to quit Put your heel where You're feeling it [Chorus: x3] Stomp, step down in it Put your feet where You feel the fit Stomp, you don't want to quit Put your heel where You're feeling it Take it to the top Stomp, step down in it Put your feet where You feel the fit Stomp, you don't want to quit Put your heel where You're feeling it
