"Fuck Me Pumps" is a song by English singer and songwriter Amy Winehouse from her debut studio album Frank (2003). Written by Winehouse and Salaam Remi, the song was released in the United Kingdom as the album's fourth and final single on 23 August 2004 under the title "Pumps"—with "Help Yourself" as its coupling track—reaching number sixty-five on the UK Singles Chart. A clean radio edit was released for promotional purposes.

The track is about stereotypical "gold-digging" girls. The term "fuck-me pumps" or "FMPs" is a slang expression for sexy women's shoes, particularly those featuring bare heels. Chris Willman from Entertainment picked "Fuck Me Pumps" as the best song from Frank.[2] The music video for "Pumps" shows Winehouse walking the streets with a microphone wearing pumps (high-heeled shoes).
