Lyrics

Shake it up, baby
Now twist and shout
Shake it, shake it up, baby
C'mon and work it on out
You know you move real good girl (Shake it up baby, now)
You know you move real fine (Twist and shout)
C'mon and move a little closer (Shake it up baby, now)
Now show the world that you're mine (Now work it on out)
You know you got me goin' (You know you got me goin')
Like I knew you would
You really, really got me goin', yeah
Like I knew you could
(Like I knew you could)
(C' mon, baby)
(C'mon baby)
(Twist and shout)
(C'mon baby)
Shake it up baby
(C'mon and)
(Work it on out)
(You know you move real good)
(You know you move real fine)
(C'mon and move a little closer, girl)
And let 'em know that you're mine
You know you got me goin' girl
Like I knew you would
You really got me goin', yeah
Like I knew you could
Like I knew you would
Shake it up, baby
Shake it up, baby
C'mon move a little closer
