Lyrics Tighten Up

Hi everybody

I'm Archie Bell and the Drells from Houston Texas

We don't only sing but we dance just as good as we walk

In Houston we just started a new dance called the Tighten up

This is the music we tighten up with

First tighten up on the drums come on now drummer

I want you to tighten up for me now

Whoa yeah

Tighten up on that bass now

Tighten up ha ha

Now let that guitar fall in

Oh yeah

Tighten up on that organ now

I say even you can do it now it sure would be tough

Now look here come on now now make it mellow

Let's tighten up now do the tighten up

Everybody can do it now so get to it

We're gonna tighten up let's do the tighten up

You can do it now so baby get to it

Look to your left now

Look to your right

Everybody can do it but don't get too tight

Come on and tighten up let's tighten up now let's tighten up now tighten up

Oh do the tighten up
