Lyrics[]
When I step onto the dance floor I gotta pause and thank the Lord Thank him for the gifts he gave me An addiction to the rhythm and jammin' feet Anytime that I hear the Jazz play I gotta tell 'em halfsteppers "Get out my way!" Trix is for kids and I'm playin' for keeps I can buy ya and sell ya you can keep the receipt Cause can't nobody move the crowd the way I do I feel for any bro' that might try to. Heard 'da Boom Boom Babygirl?! never you fear I'm Jonny Dynamite lettin' I'm know I'm up in here The Jazz is on the one and the musics' pumpin DJs got the whole crowd jumpin' Door to door. You go for yours And all we want is More More Can you handle More? All we want is more. Swing it, like they used to do Put the house beat to it and before I'm through You might learn a thing or two you can show ya peeps And you can catch me on Soul Train late next week Don't you know I'm all that and a bucket a' wings I'm on the Jazz when I feel the need to shake my groove thing. And when you feel me coming sit back relax Tell your boys look out step back Feel dat Yeah yeah Feel dat. Feel dat. Here I come again. Here I come again

Song Production Information[]
A dance track with live JAZZ-like instruments and garage beats, Jonny Dynamite's strong HIP HOP-flavored rapping make this a pleasant club jazz-styled house number.
In genre crossovers, jazz and dance music are said to have good compatibility, but it makes me feel a bit more of a different warmth in Dance Dance Revolution, which contains many completed and programmed songs.
The acoustic walking bass and adult electric piano, etc. are all noteworthy, but in particular, the final saxophone high tone is the actual sound performed by an actual saxophone player without EDITs, so by all means, don't miss it!
