Lyrics

[Intro]

Oh, oh-oh

Yeah, yeah

La, da-da, da, da, da, da, da, da-do, da-do, da

[Verse 1]

I owe it to myself

I gotta get on up

And have myself a real good time

I owe it to myself

I gotta get on up

And have myself a real good time

Mm-mm, yeah

I've been working hard all week

Now I search for ecstasy

Now that all my work is done

[PreChorus]

I'm gonna get on up

I'm gonna have myself some fun

I'm gonna shake it up

Shake it on down

Shake it all around, I'm

Gonna shake it up (Shake it up)

Shake it on down

Shake it all around (Have a real good time)

[Chorus]

I owe it to myself (Owe it to myself)

I gotta get on out

I'm gonna have myself a real good time

I owe it to myself

I gotta get on out

I'm gonna have myself a real good time

(I deserve a break today)

I'm gonna get on out and play

(Here's my chance to get away)

Oh, yeah

[Verse 2]

I'm gonna have a real good time

I deserve a break today

Gonna get on out, so I can play, baby

I'm hating on my nine to five

Time for me to come alive

[Chorus]

Gonna get on up

(Have a real good time)

I owe it to myself (Owe it to myself)

I gotta get on out

I'm gonna have myself a real good time

I owe it to myself

I gotta get on out

Now I'm gonna have some fun

[PostChorus]

I'm gonna shake it up (Shake it up)

Shake it on down

Shake it all around, I'm

Gonna shake it up (Shake it up)

Shake it on down

Shake it all around

(Have a real good time)

I owe it to myself (Owe it to myself)

I gotta get on up

And have myself a real good time

I owe it to myself

I gotta get on out

Now I'm gonna paint the town

I'm gonna shake it up (Shake it up)

Shake it on down

Shake it all around, I'm
