Lyrics

Boom-boom-boom-ba-dum-boom
Boom-boom-boom-ba-dum
Boom-boom-boom-ba-dum-boom
Boom-boom-boom-ba-dum
When you're out there on the floor, y'all
Music starts a-playin', everybody's sayin'
Check me out, I can move, I can groove
I can rock, I can shake, I can make your body quake, baby
If you feel like dancin', get on up
Just go ahead and rock, yeah, can't nobody stop ya
When you feel the music, get on down
Music starts a-playin', everybody's sayin'
Keep that body workin', work it out
Start to work, mm, boogie down
When you feel like dancin', get on down
Just go ahead and rock, can't nobody stop you
Temperature's risin', it's not surprisin'
It makes me move my feet, well
Feelin' the fire, takin' me higher, higher
Higher, yeah
Boom-boom-boom-ba-dum-boom
Boom-boom-boom-ba-dum
Boom-boom-boom-ba-dum-boom
Boom-boom-boom-ba-dum
If you feel like dancin', get on up (whoa-whoa-oh)
Just go ahead and rock, yeah, can't nobody stop ya
When you feel the music, get on down
Music starts a-playin', everybody's sayin'
Keep that body workin', work it out
Start to work, ooh, work it out
When you feel like dancin', get on down
Boogie down, way, way down
Temperature's risin', it's not surprisin'
It makes me move my feet, well
Feelin' the fire, takin' me higher, higher
Higher, yeah
Get up
Get up
Get up
If you feel like dancin', get on up
Just go ahead and rock, yeah, can't nobody stop ya
When you feel the music, get on down
Music starts a-playin', everybody's sayin'
Keep that body workin', work it out
Start to work, work it out, work it, baby
When you feel like dancin', get on down
Boogie down, way, way down
If you feel like dancin', get on up (whoa-whoa-oh, ah)
Yes, just keep that body workin'
When you feel the music, get on down
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Keep that body workin', work it out
Just go ahead and rock, yeah, can't nobody stop ya
When you feel like dancin', get on down
Boogie down, way, way, way down
(Get on up) shake it, baby, get up
Get down, rock around, come on
(Get on down) music starts a-playin', everybody's sayin'
(Work it out) just go ahead and rock, baby
Can't nobody stop ya, no
(Get on down)
Get down, baby, get down, yeah
If you feel like dancin' (whoa-whoa-oh, ah)
Get on up (get up)
(Come on) when you feel the music, get on down
Music starts a-playin', everybody's sayin', yeah
Keep that body workin', work it out (start to work)
When you feel like dancin', get on down
