What is that song?

I am trying to figue out what the "fill song" that is used on the Pardon Our French episode (Apr. 17, 2010 ) after the "round-heeled woman" bit at approximately 27:29. It's a funk-anthem sounding song that is familiar to me, but I cannot quite recall from where. Please help me figure this out; it's driving me nuts.

"Soul Finger" by the Bar Kays.

It makes an appearance in the movie "Spies Like Us", where one of the characters (the one played by Dan Aykroyd, I think) identifies it by name.

Yes! That's it! I remember it from that film when I was a kid. Toward the end, the Russian missile crew is dancing to it. Thank you.
