East Coast Poplock
How you doing?
Oh sure, chill, I ain't seen you in a long time, girl
Uh-huh, party! Now wait a minute...

On the East Coast they know how to party
On the East Coast they know how to party
In the city of New York, in the city of DC
In the city of Baltimore, they're poplocking

Poplocking in Rolls-Royce, Cadillacs, Lincoln and Mercedes-Benz
Poplocking in Howard Johnson, Sheraton
Poplocking at the Holiday Inn
Poplocking in Hollywood, it's understood
While listening to the Mac
Poplocking on Broadway, everyday
To the preacher's ray

So rough, so tough, out here, baby
So rough, so tough, out here
On the East Coast they know how to party
On the East Coast they know how to party
In the city of Jersey, in the city of Philly
In the city, city of Buffalo, they're poplocking

Dance, jazz, disco style
It's all on the East Coast
Living good and playing hard
Cruising that Boulevard
Leaning, fiending
And you won't be dreaming
That's what it's all about
So rough, so tough out here, baby
So rough, so tough out here, baby
So rough, so tough out here, baby
So rough, so tough out here, baby

(Alright, get it together, alright!)
(Ah, got some booty, honey, bust that ass)

Lock it up, baby. Woo, yeah!
Lock them shoulders
Lock them arms
Now lock that neck
Just raise those fingers in the air
I swear it's getting mighty funky out there
There's a party over here
There's a party over there
Can I get a "right on", cuz?
Playboys – that's cool (that's cool), clean and mean
Can I get a "right on", cuz?

So rough, so tough out here, baby
So rough, so tough out here
On the East Coast they know how to party
On the East Coast they know how to party
In the city of New York, in the city of DC
In the city of Baltimore, they're poplocking
Poplocking in Rolls-Royce, Cadillacs, Lincoln and Mercedes-Benz
Poplocking in Howard Johnson, Sheraton
Poplocking at the Holiday Inn
Poplocking in Hollywood, it's understood
While listening to the Mac
Poplocking on Broadway, everyday
To the preacher's ray

So rough, so tough out here, baby
So rough, so tough out here
On the East Coast they know how to party
On the East Coast they know how to party
In the city of Jersey, in the city of Philly
In the city, city of Buffalo, they're poplocking

Dance, jazz, disco style
It's all on the East Coast
Living good and playing hard
And cruising the Boulevard
Leaning, fiending
And you won't be dreaming
That's what it's all about... woo!

So rough, so tough out here, baby
So rough, so tough out here, baby
So rough, so tough out here, baby
