Lyrics

H-I-P-S...
I like the way you swing your hips
Blew my mind–I turned a flip
Acrobatics are not my style
I just want you to stay a while
Your hips are shaking
My heart is breaking for you (for you)
Your hips are shaking
My heart is breaking for you (for you)
On the way down, on the way down
On the way down, on the way down
I'm gonna get you, baby, can't you see?
It's me for you, and you for me
Is it real? If it is, let's make a deal
You're hot to trot, girl–you've got a lot
You're hot to trot, girl–you've got a lot
You can have me, girl you grab me
You just got to shake your hips (got to shake your)
Girl you grab me, you can have me
You just got to shake your
H-I-P-S, shake the rest
H-I-P-S, shake the rest
We can check it out and see
If what you've got is right for me
Day by day we play
It's hard to go by, what you say?
Your hips are shaking
My heart is breaking for you (for you)
Your hips are shaking
My heart is breaking for you (for you)
On the way down, on the way down
On the way down, on the way down
You can have me, girl you grab me
You just got to shake your hips (got to shake your)
Girl you grab me, you can have me
You just got to shake your hips (oh, I wanna see you shake it)
You can have me (ooh baby), girl you grab me
(Shake your hips) You just got to shake your hips
(Got to shake your)
Girl you grab me (you really grip), you can have me
(Shake it, yeah) You just got to shake your... H-I-P-S!
H-I-P-S!
H-I-P-S!
H-I-P-S!
H-I-P-S!
H-I-P-S!
H-I-P-S!
H-I-P-S! (On the way down)
H-I-P-S! (On the way down)
(On the way down) H-I-P-S! (On the way down...)
