Lyric

Velvet smoke hanging over the crowded room

Gold heels tapping underneath the silver moon

The bartender laughing while the snare cuts clean

And the bassline crawling like a long black limousine

Red dress swaying to the crack of the tambourine

Sharp horn crying with a little bit of attitude in between

Nobody standing still when the pocket gets tight

Cause the groove got everybody hypnotized tonight

Street heat dripping from the edge of the sound

Soul fire rising while the band gets down

Every slow turn pulling harder on the beat

And the whole room moving underneath your feet

Late night bodies glowing under neon blue

Rhythm getting deeper every time you move

Every clap snapping like a match in the dark

And the groove keeps hitting like a shot to the heart

Champagne shaking while the drummer plays mean

Sweet guitar scratching through the rhythm so clean

One glance from you and the whole floor froze

Like the music and the smoke wrapped around your clothes

Backbeat rolling like a tire in the rain

Hot breath mixing with the perfume and the pain

No cheap talking when the funk gets low

Everybody locked into the afterglow

Black shoes sliding while the bassline bends

Whole room sweating when the chorus hits again

Every horn stab cutting straight through the light

And the rhythm keeps growing through the night

Slow hips turning with the groove in control

Snare drum cracking right against your soul

Every hand moving with the pulse of the band

Like the whole world shaking to the sound

Midnight pressure pouring out the speakers loud

Heavy soul floating through the smoky crowd

Every low note hanging thick inside the air

Like a dangerous feeling everywhere

Silk shirts sticking while the heat climbs high

Trumpets ringing underneath the city sky

Every footstep landing hard upon the floor

Till the groove keeps begging us for more

Cool sweat shining underneath the amber glow

Pocket so deep nobody wants to go

Every dancer caught inside the sound tonight

While the funk keeps burning bright

Wild hearts beating with the kick and snare

Raw soul floating through the heavy air

Every body leaning closer to the flame

While the rhythm calls your name
