Lyrics
Steppin’ out, the weekend’s 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, everybody take it to the top
We’re gonna stomp
All night
In the neighbourhood
Don’t it feel alright?
Gonna stomp
All night
Wanna party ’til the mornin’ light
Runnin’ runnin’ runnin’ (oh yeah)
Set is hot, there’s people wall to wall
Old ones, young things, short ones standin’ tall
So grab the girl 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
Everybody take it to the top
We’re gonna stomp
All night
In the neighbourhood
Don’t it feel alright?
Gonna stomp
All night
Wanna party ’til the mornin’ light
Gonna stomp
All night
In the neighbourhood
Don’t it feel alright?
Gonna stomp
All night
Wanna party ’til the mornin’ light
Ooh!
Stomp, step down in it
Put your foot where you feel the fit
Stomp, you don’t want to quit
Put your heel where you’re feelin’ it
Stomp, step down in it
Put your foot where you feel the fit
Stomp, you don’t want to quit
Put your heel where you’re feelin’ it
Stomp, step down in it
Put your foot where you feel the fit
Stomp, you don’t want to quit
Put your heel where you’re feelin’ it
Stomp
All night (night)
In the neighbourhood
Don’t it feel all right?
Gonna stomp (stompin’)

Wanna party ’til the mornin’ light (light)
