Ain't gonna bump no more (with no big fat woman) - Joe Tex

Joe Tex was born as Joseph Arrington jr on August 8, 1933. He was the first artist to record a Southern soul record that also hit the pop charts in America ('Hold what you've got' in 1965). Between 1965 and 1972 he had several hits in America, but in 1972 he decided to retire from the music business.

He returned to music in 1975, and two years later enjoyed a massive comeback hit with 'Ain't gonna bump no more (with no big fat woman)', which reached number 12 in America. It was also his first big hit in the Neherlands, peaking at number 6.
