lyrics

So we turned down the lights/And we started it right
As we boogied all night/And kept the groove tight
Turn the music on to party/Everybody move your body
We infected the groove/While we make your neck move
And we checked that it’s smooth/But we tested it too
Ain’t no stoppin’ whatchu feelin’/Raise your hands up to the ceilin’
We gonna get on down/Like the old disco
Have a good time tonight/Go for what you know
Attitude to yourself/ No V.I.P.
Wave your hands in the air/ And just follow me
Electric slide/ Break, pop, or lock
Whatever you do/ Don’t let the groove stop
Man, y’all know what we came to do/ Man, y’all know that we came to move

Chorus

Can we get things back the way they used to be?
The way we danced and laughed so magically
I like the way things were before when we were free
Can we get things back the way they used to be?

If you out on the floor/ We keep giving you more
So that it ain’t a bore/Whatchu waitin’ ‘round fo?r
Get to movin’ ‘cause it feels nice/ Enjoy the feeling - know it feels right
Not gone say it again/ Just let the groove get on in
And you know it’s hittin’/ We won’t soon be quittin’
All the fellas grab a lady/ C’mon y’all and let’s get crazy
Now what you hear is not a test--I'ma rapping to the beat
Me, the groove, and my friends are gonna get you outta your seat
See we came here to dance tonight/ no sense in staying mellow
From the front to the back and side to side/ shake your body
Y’all, let’s go

Chorus
