Lyrics
[Intro]
Party people, party people, can y'all get funky?
Soul Sonic Force, can y'all get funky?
The Zulu Nation, can y'all get funky?
Yeah, just hit me
Just taste the funk and hit me
Just get on down and hit me
Bambaataa's gettin' so funky, now hit me
Yeah, just hit me
[Verse 1]
Just start to chase your dreams
Up out your seats, make your body sway
Socialize, get down, let your soul lead the way
Shake it now, go ladies, it's a livin' dream
Love, life, live
Come play the game, our world is free
Do what you want but scream
[Verse 2]
We know a place where the nights are hot
It is a house of funk
Females and males, both headed all for the disco
The DJ plays your favorite blasts
Takes you back to the past, music's magic, poof
Hump, pump, funk, and bump with some flash, people
[Chorus]
Rock, rock to the Planet Rock, don't stop
Rock, rock to the Planet Rock, don't stop
[Verse 3]
The Soul Sonic Force, Mr. Biggs, Pow Wow, and MC G.L.O.B.E.
We emphasize the show, we got ego
Make this your night, just slip it right and by day
As the people say, live it up, shucks
No work or play, our world is free
Be what you be, so be
[Chorus]
Rock, rock to the Planet Rock, don't stop
Rock, rock to the Planet Rock, don't stop
[Verse 4]
You're in a place where the nights are hot
Where nature's children dance and set a chance
On this Mother Earth, which is our rock
The time has come and work for soul
To show you really got soul
Are you ready?
Hump, pump, funk, and bump, now let's go
House
[Verse 5]
Twist and turn
Then you let your body slide
You got the body rock
And pop, bounce and pounce
Everybody just rock it, don't stop it
You gotta rock it, don't stop
Keep tickin' and tockin', work it all around the clock
Everybody keep rockin' and clockin' and shockin' and rockin'
Go house
Everybody say, rock it, don't stop it (Rock it, don't stop it)
Well hit me, Mr. Biggs (Mr. Biggs)
Pow Wow (Pow Wow)
The G-L-O-B-E (The G-L-O-B-E)
The Soul Sonic Force
[Verse 6]
You got rockers and poppin' 'cause it's the century
There is such a place that creates such a melody
Our world is but a land of a master jam
Get up and dance
It's time to chase your dreams
Up out your seats, make your body sway
Socialize, get down,
Let your soul lead the way
Shake it now, go ladies, it's a livin' dream
Love, life, live
[Bridge]
Zih-zih-zih-zih-zih, zih-zih-zih, zih-zih-zih-zih-zih-zih-zih
Zih-zih-zih, zih-zih, zih-zih, zih-zih, zih-zih, zih-zih
[Verse 7]
Everybody say rock it, don't stop it (Rock it, don't stop it)
Everybody say shockin' and clockin' (Shockin' and clockin')
Everybody say ichi ni san shi (Ichi ni san shi)
Say Planet Rock (Planet Rock)
It's the sure shot (It's the sure shot)
Say Planet Rock (Planet Rock)
It's the sure shot (It's the sure shot)
So twist and turn
Then you let your body glide
You got the body rock and pop, bounce and pounce
[Verse 8]
So hit me
Just taste the funk and hit me
Just get on down and hit me
Bambaataa's gettin' so funky, now hit me
Every piece of the world
Rate the message of my words
All men, women, boys, and girls
Hey, our Planet Rock is superb
Get on it
[Verse 9]
You got the groove, move, shak, undi, shak, undi, shak
Feel the groove, feel it
Do what ya want to
But you know you got to be cool and boogie
Out on the floor, go down
Bring it low, close to the ground
[Outro]
Everybody just rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop
Keep tickin' and tockin'
Work it all around the clock
Everybody just rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop
Keep tickin' and tockin', work it all around the clock
Everybody, ya gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop it
We gotta rock it, don't stop
