Lyrics
Cruisin' down on Broadway groovin that old man funk
Got all I need to get up to speed
Don't need no modern junk
When the drums are slammin' and the boys start jammin'
I go back to another place
Ain't no stoppin' when the bass starts poppin'
Puts a big smile on my face
I was on the make, no mistake, hadda find me a baby tonight
Some downtown lady with a past that's shady
Would make me feel so right
At party time I felt so fine
With a pocket full of foldin' green
I had moves that looked so smooth
I swear I was a dancin' machine
Gettin down to some funky sound, we were the army of the night
Party 'till dawn then party on
Didn't need no guiding light
Bang some heads and rip some threads
Everybody on the floor
Weren't gettin older we were so much bolder
We were always ready for more
We were party creatures with party features had no time to waste
Losin' sleep but never cheap
We had champagne tastes
So discreet in the big back seat
Of my '69 Cadillac
We'd jump inside and take a ride
Never worry 'bout holdin' back
