Shake!
Hey hey people, what U come here 4?
Come on everybody, let's get out on the floor
All the pretty girls shakin' what they got (Shake {x4})
The boys swear 2 God that they all 2 hot
Chorus
Everybody - Shake!
U got 2 shake something (My Lawd)
Shake!
U got 2 shake something
Come on pretty baby now don't be shy
New liberated girl ask a guy
We can go dancing baby, every night (Shake {x5})
But U gotta shake that body 'til the early, early light
Chorus
(Shake shake shake)
([Shake them ah!])
(Sing with me, now)
(Oh ho, oh ho, oh ho)
Ruby standin' there with the bought hair on (Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
Don't shake it 2 hard or that hair'll be gone (Oops) (Da-da!)
Brother so worried about his 2 left feet
When he need 2 be worried 'bout keepin' on the beat
That don't matter y'all, c'mon
Shake! (Shake shake shake)
U got 2 shake something (Oh Lawd)

Every..everybody, hey hey people what U come here 4?

Come on everybody let's get out on the floor
(U got 2 shake something)
We can shake it 2 the north (Shake)
We can shake it 2 the south
(U got 2 shake something) (Somebody help me) (Shake)
If U come 2 party now, open up your mouth, c'mon
(U got 2 shake something)
