Ah, on the floor and dance
Ah, on the floor and dance
So get on the floor
And dance with me (dance with me)
I love the way you shake your thing
Especially
There's a chance for dancin' all night long
There's a chance for groovin'
And it will be soothing with a song
Then why don't you just dance across the floor?
'Cause there's a chance for chances
And the chance is choosin'
And I sure would like just to groove with you
So get on the floor (on the floor)
And dance with me
I love the way you shake your thing
Especially
So get on the floor (get on the floor)
And dance with me
I love the way you shake that thing, girl
Especially
No need for rejection
Determined to be
Gonna groove, gonna move ya
Gonna say things to ya
Just wait and see
Then why don't you just dance across the floor
'Cause there's a chance for choices
And it's you I'm choosin'
And I sure would like just to groove with you
So get on the floor (on the floor and)
And dance with me
I love the way you shake your thing
Especially
So get on the floor
And dance with me
I love the way you shake that thing, girl (on the floor and)
Especially
Get up, won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Get up, won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Get up, won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Won't you go and get down?
Won't you go and get down?
Won't you go and get down?
Won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Get up, won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Get up, won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Won't you go and get down?
Won't you go and get down?
So get on the floor
And dance with me
I love the way you shake your thing, girl
Especially
So get on the floor
And dance with me
I love the way you shake that thing, girl
Especially
Get up, won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Get up, won't you go and get down? (And dance with me)
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Get up, won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Get up, won't you go and get down? (Especially)
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
Get up, won't you go and get down?
Shake your body, won't you go and get down?
