Come on, baby
Yeah, ey ey
Ow
Yeah, ey ey
All pretty ladies around the world
Got a weird thing to show you, so tell all the boys and girls
Tell your brother, your sister, and your mama too
'Cause we're about to go down and you know just what to do
Wave your hands in the air like you don't care
Lie by the people as they start to look and stare
Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance, quick
Mama, come on baby tell me what's the word, a
Word Up
Everybody say
When you hear the call, you've got to get it underway
Word Up
Its the cool word
No matter where you say it, you know that you'll be heard
Now all you sucker dj's who think you're fly
There's got to be a reason and we know the reason why
You try to put on those pants and act real cool
But you got to realise that you're actin' like fools
If there's music we can use it we're free to dance
We don't have no time for psychological romance
No romance, no romance, no romance for me
Mama, come on baby, tell me what's the word, a
Word up
Everybody say
When you hear the call you've got to get it underway
Word up
Its the cool word
No matter where you say it, you know that you'll be heard
Word up
Everybody say
When you hear the call you've got to get it underway
Word up
Its the cool word
No matter where you say it, you know that you'll be heard
Word up
Everybody say
Word up
Its the cool word
