On the Southside of ChicagoBobby boogie as the peopleWatch him dance step on the floorAin't no match, you canCatch him some night dancingAnd the people in the discoCheer for moreAnd the music's fineHe's the greatest dance starHe'll blow your mindWell, it's hard to stay on topWhen you can't stop, noYou're number one, yeahYou're number one, yeahNumero Uno, yeahYou're number one, yeahNow Jimmy's dressed in satinLaced with diamondsAnd he has moves just likeA tiger in the nightIn every disco up in FriscoThey're dancingHis moves are strongTo every songAnd the number oneHe had to knowSo he challenged BobbyOn a TV showLike the?, got the stuffGot to show your stuff, yeahWhen you're number one, yeahYou're number one, yeahNumero Uno, yeahYou're number one, yeahPeople cleared the floorTo let the dance beginBobby moved and glidedI thought his movesWould never endJimmy turned and twistedAs the ladies watched him danceHis feet, they weavedThat magic spellPut the crowd out in a tranceEverybody, everybody was lookingThe music, the music, the musicThe music was cookingThose fast feetHips and hands were movingAnd somehow when thatSmoke got cleared awayJimmy was on the floor dancingAnd Bobby had simplyFaded awaySo if you thinkThat you're number oneYou can't claim the titleTil the dance is doneYou're always gonnaMake yourself a targetTo every new kidWho comes to townHe's waiting to meet youAt some discoWhen you're number oneThey try to shoot you downWhen you're number one, yeahYou're number one, yeahNumero Uno, yeahYou're number one, yeah
