(Ow, shake it! |
|
Yeah, oh, you're lookin' sweet, baby |
|
Yes, indeedy |
|
Funky (get down)) |
|
We was on a dancefloor shakin' our thing |
|
To a funky beat with a go-go swing |
|
Everyone was watching, they stared in shock |
|
Amazed at how Salt and Pepa was rock- |
|
In the place with a smile on my face |
|
Some got upset and then tried to base |
|
They called us nasty, said we danced dirty |
|
Claimed we were freaks, cheap, even flirty |
|
Pepa got pissed and pulled out a pump |
|
I was all set not to jet but to jump |
|
Spin broke it up and asked not to break |
|
Said, \"They don't understand the way you...\" |
|
CHORUS |
|
Shake your thang, owww |
|
Do what you wanna do |
|
I can't tell you how to catch a groove |
|
It's your thang (It's your thing) |
|
Do what you wanna do |
|
I won't tell you who to sock it to |
|
Shake that thing, c'mon, y'all, shake it |
|
We could get loose, but we can't get naked |
|
It's not a crime, it's legal, we answered |
|
Look again - see? We're just dancin' |
|
Relax a bit, now ain't that better? |
|
I think it's time for you to get a... |
|
Partner, doe-see, gather in closely |
|
I wanna see the ones that mostly |
|
Front on a cutie, hope you're not fruity |
|
Do your duty and... |
|
CHORUS |
|
Come on, y'all, shake that thing |
|
You got to just show no shame |
|
I want you to shake that thing |
|
Come on, y'all, show no shame |
|
Shake your thang, yeah yeah |
|
Oh, you're lookin' sweet, baby |
|
Owww, I won't tell you how to catch a groove |
|
It's my thing, and I'll swing it the way that I feel |
|
With a little seduction and some sex appeal |
|
It's Friday night, and I just got paid |
|
I'm checking out the fella with the high-top fade |
|
Moving in closely, ready for the kill |
|
Steppin' on a dancefloor, think you're ill |
|
But if I guy touch my body I just put him in check |
|
I said, \"We just met\ |
