Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, just as tight a$ you can make it
Hard and slow ain't hard enough
Just as tight a$ you can shake it, girl
Git it on and do your stuff
[Chorus]
Tight a$ you can get it
Tight a$ got it made
Uptight's alright but if ya can't stand the heat you better get back in the shade
Well
[Verse 2]
Just as tight a$ an Indian rope trick
Long and tough ain't hard enough
Just as tight a$ a dope fiend's fix, my friend
Git it up and do your stuff
[Chorus]
Tight a$ you can boogie
Tight a$ got it made
Uptight's alright but if ya can't stand the heat you better get back in the shade
Well
[Bridge]
Alright
Alright
Ooh
Ooh-ooh
[Verse 3]
Well, tight a$ you can make it
Hard and slow ain't hard enough
Just as tight a$ you can shake it, girl
Git it on and do your stuff
[Chorus]
Tight a$ you can get it
Tight a$ got it made
Uptight's alright but if ya can't stand the heat you better get back in the shade
Well
[Verse 4]
Tight a$ an Indian rope trick
Hard and long ain't hard enough
Just as tight a$ a dope fiend's fix, my friend
Git it up and do your stuff
[Chorus]
Tight a$ you can boogie
Tight a$ got it laid
Uptight's alright but if ya can't stand the heat you better get back in the shade
Well
[Chorus]
Well, tight a$ got me cornered
Tight a$ got me laid
Tight a$ strut your stuff so tough
Just sitting in the midnight shade
Tight a$ you can boogie
Tight a$, she got laid
Uptight's alright but if ya can't stand the heat you better get back in the shade
Well
[Outro]
Go
Whoo
Ah, get it
