Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Oh, everybody get down on the floor (Get down on the floor)

I love the way you shake your thing

You make me want some more (Make me want some more)

[Verse 2]

I've had my days of standin' on shaky ground

I want my life so fancy free

I know that I can do it, I have to let me be

And I've had enough and I know what's right for me

[Verse 3]

Hey, I've done my time and I have paid the price

All you have to do is state my name out loud

Forget your worries and let's dance and shout

All you have to do is say my name out loud

[Verse 4]

Oh, everybody get down on the floor (Get down on the floor)

I love the way you shake your thing

You make me want some more (Make me want some more)

[Verse 5]

Listen

This time I'm leavin' all of my cares behind

I've taste the good life and it's fine

No more to pain and strife, this life's waitin' to be

And I've had enough and I know what's right for me

[Verse 6]

Hey, I've done my time and I have paid the price

All you have to do is state my name out loud

Forget your worries and let's dance and shout

'Cause we're here to live so free, I've got to let me be, oh

[Verse 7]

Oh, everybody get down on the floor (Get down on the floor)

I love the way you shake your thing

You make me want some more, baby (Make me want some more)

[Verse 8]

Oh, everybody get down on the floor (Get down on the floor)

'Cause I love the way you move, shake your thing

You make me want some more, baby, yeah (Make me want some more)

[Verse 9]

Hey, I've done my time and I have paid the price

All you have to do is say my name out loud

Forget your worries and let's dance and shout

'Cause we're here to live so free, I've got to let me be, oh

[Verse 10]

Oh, everybody gon' get down on the floor (Get down on the floor)

I love the way you shake your thing

You make me want some more, baby (Make me want some more)

[Verse 11]

Oh, yeah, come on, get down on the floor (Get down on the floor)

I love the way you move, the way you groove

You make me want some more, baby (Make me want some more)

[Verse 12]

Get down, get down, get down

Get down, get down, get down (Get down on the floor)

Get down, get down, get down

Make me want some more, baby (Make me want some more)

[Verse 13]

Oh, everybody, we're gonna get down on the floor

(Get down on the floor)

I love the way you groove, the way you move

You make me want some more (Make me want some more)

[Verse 14]

Get down, get down, get down

Get down, get down, get down (Get down on the floor)

Get down, get down, get down

Make me want some more, baby (Make me want some more)

I love, I love, I love, I love, I love the way
