Released as the first Boney M. single, it became a minor hit in the Netherlands[2] and Belgium, prompting Farian to create a proper group to promote his studio project.

"Baby Do You Wanna Bump"—a remake of Prince Buster's 1960s song "Al Capone"—was written by producer Frank Farian under the pseudonym Zambi, with Farian himself doing the deep male lead vocal, as well as the high falsetto backing vocals.

George Reyam was also credited as a composer on Part II, but the label did not mention Prince Buster, who had written "Al Capone".

The track was not included on the UK, US, Brazilian and Japanese versions of that album, since the recording was still licensed to Creole Records, and it was replaced on those pressings by "Help Help", a Farian composition previously released by Austrian singer Gilla.

When Boney M. topped the UK charts with "Rivers of Babylon" and "Brown Girl in the Ring" in 1978, Creole Records re-issued "Baby Do You Wanna Bump" as a 12" single there.
