Lyrics

Ow!
Alright, y'all
Wow!
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all (ow!)
Well-well-well-well, oh
Yeah-ow
Hey-hey-hey, yeah
If you feel the music in your soul
Don't you hold back, you got to let it go
Move your body anyway you know (anyway you know)
Everybody do it out on the floor (well)
Let's have a real good time (yeah-hey)
Anything you do is a-mighty fine
If you wanna groove, you just get in line (get in line)
And I'll funk your funk while you funk mine
Oh, get funky with it (ah!)
Oh, get funky with it
Oh, get funky with it
Get funky with it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Do what you want to, do it everyone (yeah)
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all (go wild)
Do what you want to, do it everyone (well)
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all (ow!)
Well, well, well-well
Ooh
If you're lookin' out for number one
Then here's your chance to have some fun (oh, get in line)
Get on up and get on down (ow)
Ain't no time to funk around
Get funky with it
Oh, get funky with it
Oh, get funky with it
Get funky with it
Oh, get funky with it
Oh, get funky with it
Get funky with it
Oh, get funky with it
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all
Let your body get into it
Better get started, you can do it
Let your body get into it
Better get started, you can do it
Let your body get into it
Better get started, you can do it
Let your body get into it
Better get started, you can do it
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all
Do what you want to, do it everyone
Do what you want to, let's have some fun, y'all
