Tower of Power

Tower of Power (or TOP for short) is an American R&B-based horn section and band, originating in Oakland, California, that has been performing for over 44 years. They are best known for their funky soul sound highlighted by a powerful horn section and precisely syncopated bass-guitar lines. There have been several lead vocalists, the most famous being Lenny Williams, who fronted the band between early 1973 and late 1974, the period of their greatest commercial success. Their biggest hits include "You're Still A Young Man", "So Very Hard To Go","Soul With a Capital S", "Soul Vaccination", "What Is Hip?", and "Don't Change Horses (In the Middle of a Stream)." more »

It's Saturday night and I'm just hangin' out
Lookin' for a place to party
I jumps into my ride and I hits the road
'Cause there's only one place to go
(Down to the nightclub) Ooh, the women be righteously ready and pretty
(Down to the nightclub) We go bump-ty, bump-ty, bump'
(Bump City)

Sitting by the dance floor checkin' it out
Watchin' the man with fast feet
He's got the hippest threads and the bad boogaloo
And a big ol' bag of tricks
(Down to the nightclub) Ah, ha, you can get what you want
 If you know how to find it
(Down to the nightclub) Ooh, we be slick, slick, slick

Ooh, the people be bumpin' (At Bump City)
The joint be jumpin' (At Bump City)
The mamas be humpin' (At Bump City)
Hey, while the band be pumpin'
'Said the band be pumpin'
The beat be somethin'
Ow! One time y'all!

The night's almost gone and we're still goin' strong,
'Cause the party's been so hearty.
I hope it doesn't show while I'm drivin' down the road
That I had to much to drink.
(Down to the nightclub) Well, if you've got the dough
The liqour will flow

(Down to the nightclub) Tied on a drunk, drunk, drunk
(Down to the nightclub) We go bump-ty, bump-ty, bump
(Down to the nightclub) We be slick, slick, slick
(Down to the nightclub) We go bump-ty, bump-ty, bump
(Down to the nightclub) Tied on a drunk, drunk, drunk
(Down to the nightclub) Well, if you've got the dough, the liqour will flow
(Down to the nightclub) Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah

(Down to the nightclub) Look here, man
You can get what you want if you know how to find it
(Down to the nightclub) see'mon, see'mon, see'mon
(Down to the nightclub) Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah
(Down to the nightclub) Look here, y'all
The women be righteously ready and pretty (Hee-hee)
(Down to the nightclub) Alright, now, now
(Down to the nightclub)
Down to the nightclub
Bump-ty, bump-ty, bump
