Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Ain't got no trouble in my life
No foolish dream to make me cry
I'm never frightened or worried
I know I always get by
I heat up (Heat up)
I cool down (Cool down)
When something gets in my way I go round it
Don't let life get me down
Gonna take it the way that I found it
[Verse 2]
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
Yeah, I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
[Verse 3]
They say that life is a circle (Circle)
But that ain't the way that I found it
Gonna move in a straight line (Ooh)
Keepin' my feet firmly on the ground
[Verse 4]
I heat up (Heat up)
I cool down (Cool down)
I got words in my head so I say them
Don't let life get me down
Catch ahold of my blues and just play them
[Verse 5]
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me, wow
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
[Verse 6]
Feel funky (Woo), feels good (Woo)
Gonna tell ya, I'm in the neighborhood
Gonna fly like a bird on the wing
Hold onto your hat, honey
Sing, sing, sing, sing
Heat up, cool down (Cool down)
I got words in my head so I say them
Don't let life get me down (Don't let it get you down)
Catch a hold of my blues and just play them
[Verse 7]
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
Yeah, I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
[Verse 8]
Whoa (I got the music in me)
(I got the music in me)
(I got the music in me)
(I got the music in me)
(I got the music in me)
(I got the music in me)
[Verse 9]
Ain't got no trouble in my life
No foolish dream to make me cry
I'm never frightened, I'm never worried
I know, I know, I always get by
[Verse 10]
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me, yeah
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me, yeah
I got the music
I got the music
I got the music in me
I got the music
I got the music
I got the music, pretty music
I got the music in me
[Verse 11]
No, no
Don't let it
Don't let it
[Verse 12]
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
Ooh, hey, hey, hey
[Verse 13]
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
I got the music in me
[Verse 14]
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
(Hey, yeah, feel it) I got the music in me
I got the music in me (Yeah, alright)
I got the music in me (Huh, huh, huh, huh, huh)
[Verse 15]
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
Don't let it get you down
(I got the music in me) I got the music
(I got the music in me) I got the music
(I got the music in me) Oh, set me free
(I got the music in me)
