Back in way back, way back

Way back, way back

Way back in 1973, 1973

1973

And we gonna tighten it up just a little bit

And we gonna try to make it mellow

And we gonna try to make it mellow, whoa

You gonna have to catch up with me

And we gonna try to make it mellow

We gonna make it mellow, make it mellow

First tighten up on the drums right now

Come on now, drummer

I want you to tighten it up for me now

Oh, yeah

Tighten up on that bass now

Tighten it up

Ha, ha, yeah

Now let that guitar fall in

Oh, yeah

Tighten up on that organ now

Yeah, you do the tighten up

Yeah, now

I said, if you can do it now

It sure would be tough

Now look here, come on now

Now make it mellow

Let's tighten it 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 you get too tight

Come on and tighten up

Let's tighten it up now

Let's tighten it up now

Tighten it up

Do the tighten up

Come and tighten it up

Tighten it up now

Come on now, Billy

Tighten it up

Oh, yeah

Sock it to me now

Tighten it up

Come on and tighten up that bass

Oh, yeah

Now look here

I want that guitar

To fall in on there

Tighten it up now

Oh, yeah

Now tighten it up, organ

Yeah

Now everybody tighten it up now

Now look here

We gonna make it mellow for you now

We gonna make it mellow now

Tighten it up

You can get it

Move to your left

Move to your right

Tighten it up now

Everything will be outta sight

Come on and tighten it up

Tighten it up now
