Song Lyrics

Let's get it done right
Everybody in the place
Is welcome tonight
So let's run the night

Hot coffee keep me awake for goodness sake
It's late and now I'm feeling it, I've got so much on the mind
With the need to unwind, leave the day behind
Now are you feeling it, there's nothing wrong with that, right?

Everyone needs a break in life, so I'm going to take one tonight
Empty the stress and find rest instead double dose of comatose
Drain my head and go brain dead, I went blank
I thank God for these moments when I don't have to think

I'm up in here while the night is near
Hey DJ Manuel, put the music in my ear
Let me hear something contagious, infectious
Play the set with freshness, ah yes
I guess the guest list includes you and I
And everyone else that chose to reply

Let's get it done right
Everybody in the place
Is welcome tonight
So let's run the night

The sun is setting, letting the night creep on
In outside in the streets, I see the folks peeking in
One by one, they start to slowly leak in, looking lovely
My friends, what a unique blend

A collection of humanity brought to one
Spot individuals ready to unleash what they got
Yes and yes indeed bring something slick
To mix up the evening from entering to the time of leaving

We kept on and must continue, keeping your interest peeking
'Cause you came seeking for more than the ordinary
Less than extraordinary, Lord prepare me
'Cause I don't want to move on illusion, hibernation

In a fantasy of confusion I choose, so I chose the life giver
'Cause how could we create without love for the Creator?

Let's get it done right
Everybody in the place
Is welcome tonight
So let's run the night

Come here folks, we're about to provoke the night
Promote the night, not just soak in the night
Take advantage of the night, speak life through the night
Driven to give them some sort of peace in the night

While I'm with them, I'm spitting wisdom hoping to hit them
Get them to listen and make the room start living, come alive
We're about to tune it right, take my hand
We're about to dance under the moon light

Let's get it done right
Everybody in the place
Is welcome tonight
So let's run the night
