Lyrics

[00:48.67] How's about your company this evenin'
[00:52.26] Won't you say that you are free
[00:56.45] Take you out to somewhere really special
[01:00.33] Oh won't you come along with me
[01:04.27] From what I've heard them say
[01:06.26] The music that they play
[01:08.31] Is nothin' like you've ever heard before
[01:12.29] Once you get to dancin' you can stomp your feet
[01:15.78] 'Cause the rhythm keeps in time
[01:17.77] What do you say now?
[01:19.23]
[01:20.18] Are you ready or not
[01:21.62] It's only up the street
[01:24.56] Everybody's dancin'
[01:26.20] And everybody's on the beat
[01:28.40] I'm a-beggin' you now
[01:29.54] It's where we both could be
[01:30.74]
[01:32.48] Everybody's dancin'
[01:34.22] And everybody's on the beat
[01:36.32] Are you ready or not
[01:37.47] It's only up the street
[01:40.10] Everybody's dancin'
[01:42.14] And everybody's on the beat
[01:44.34]
[01:44.54] Say that you'll accept this invitation
[01:48.33] Oh won't you say you'll come along
[01:52.33] Music can give lovers inspiration
[01:56.46] It's just a place where we could go
[02:00.24] Nobody has a care
[02:02.19] 'Cause there's music in the air
[02:04.08] It's nothin' like you've ever seen before
[02:08.31] People dancin' all night long
[02:12.14] Won't you say you've got the time
[02:13.98] You wanna go there?
[02:15.69]
[02:16.38] Are you ready or not
[02:17.58] It's only up the street
[02:20.58] Everybody's dancin'
[02:22.57] And everybody's on the beat
[02:24.46] Are you ready or not
[02:25.46] It's where we both could be
[02:28.70] Everybody's dancin'
[02:30.12] And everybody's on the beat
[02:32.28] (What you say) you and I should go together
[02:36.56] (What you say) it's for everyone to see
[02:40.50] (What you say) do you want to come along with me?
[03:49.03]
[03:52.32] Are you ready or not
[03:53.40] It's only up the street
[04:00.36] Are you ready or not
