(DJ voice) Big up every sound in the place tonight

Tum-pa, tum-pa

Feel the bassline rise

Tum-pa, tum-pa

We set the vibe right here

One love for the people yeah yeah

Verse 1

Sun gone down and the moon rides high

Salt breeze dancing off the neon sky

Pretty girls rolling in with their hair tied back

Every soul in the crowd on the right track

Speakers stacked high and the riddim unload

Feel the warm night turn the whole street to gold

Pre-Chorus

When the drums start knocking

When the bassline's thumping low

You can't help it baby

Feel the fire starting to grow

Chorus

Everybody move tonight

Tum-pa, tum-pa

Lose your worries in the light

Tum-pa, tum-pa

Hold me close and step in time

Tum-pa tum-pa

Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Verse 2

She spin around with a smile on her face

Two step closer and she takes that space

Island heat running through her veins

No tomorrow and no yesterday pains

Hands up high when the horn section blow

Caribbean fire only we all know

When the drums start knocking

When the bassline's thumping low

You can't help it baby

Feel the fire starting to grow
