Pumps and a Bump Lyrics

[Verse 2]
Pumps and a bump, now many say "a big rump"
But if you're hip, you know that it's a full trunk
It's making the brothers go crazy in the '93
Shaped like an hourglass; fine as wine, G
So when I see I gotta step (It's a pride thing)
Never been a coward ('Cause it's a eastside thing)
Just step right up to the girl with the big fat
Hell of a rump, yo, the pumps and a bump, uh!

[Bridge]
All that we want
For the rest of our life
Is a girl thick and tight (Ladies!)
All that we want
Is man who is right
Who can hit it all night!
We gotta bump the pumps!

[Chorus:]
Pumps and a bump (Oh!), pumps and a bump (Oh!)
We like the girls with the pumps and a bump! (Uh!)

Pumps and a bump (Oh!), pumps and a bump (Oh!)
We like the girls with the pumps and a bump! (Uh!)

Pumps and a bump (Oh!), pumps and a bump (Oh!)
We like the girls with the pumps and a bump! (Uh!)

Pumps and a bump, pumps and a bump
Give me the girls with the pumps and a bump! (Uh!)

[Verse 3]
I don't like 'em figgity fat! (No!), I like 'em stiggity stacked (Yeah!)
You wiggity wiggity wack if you ain't got biggity back (Awwww!)
Now when you see the rump shakin' on the dance floor
You following with your eyes and get hypnotized
But a brother like me will dance with her, took 'em, charmin' and chillin'
I squeeze the Charmin and she won't find it alarmin'
I put my fingerprints all over that rump
I'm guilty as hell but I love the pumps and the bump! (Ow!)

[Chorus]
Pumps and a bump, pumps and a bump
We like the girls with the pumps and a bump!

Pumps and a bump, pumps and a bump
We like the girls with the pumps and a bump!

Pumps and a bump, pumps and a bump
We like the girls with the pumps and a bump!

Pumps and a bump, pumps and a bump
We like the girls with the pumps and a bump!


[Bridge]
All that we want
For the rest of our life
Is a girl thick and tight (Ladies!)
All that we want
Is man who is right
Who can hit it all night!
We gotta bump the pumps!
