Song Lyrics

Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on

One night I was cooling sitting in the tub
And, I wanted to go out
And go to the club
So, I got out the tub
And put my sneakers on

Yo, that's what you did D

Guess what? Word is on
Jumped in my Cadillac
I went and got TD c
And drove downtown and picked up LC
And on our way there, I met this girl
She was the finest girl
In the whole wide world
But when we got the club
She started to fake it
I said, "get out there
And let me see you shake it"

Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on

This pretty girl I met
She kept me in a trance
But she had one problem
She would not dance
So I set her up
Yo, baby look at your watch
You know, time is running out
And it's time to rock
But she kept standing there
Holding up the wall
While everybody
Was rockin and having a ball
And I thought to myself
Something must be wrong
'Cause she been standing in the same place all night long
I said "come on girl, don't try to fake it
Get out there, and let me see you shake it"

Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on

Now it's three a.m. with one hour to go
And every guy that asked to dance
She just said no
I started buggin' and thinkin' "what could it be?"
Was she just saying no
'Cause she was coolin' with me
'Cause every song that came on
She would tap her feet
And shake her head back and forth
To the funky beat
But when I asked her to dance
She wouldnt obey
And then she got me upset
And I wanted to say
Come on girl don't try to fake it
Get out there and let me see you shake it

Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it

Hey yo, DJ Smurf (yo)
Yo, is the girl rockin' or what, man
Man, she ain't doin' nothin', D
Word up man, yo I don't know what's going on with her man
Yo, why don't you talk to her or something
Man, try to get out there and shake it
You know what I'm saying

Yo baby, you need to start shaking (come on, shake, shake it)
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on, come on, shake, shake it
Come on, shake, shake it
Come on

Now the party was over
And I was taking her home
She started touching me
I said "leave me alone
'Cause all night long you would not dance
Now it's over, and you want to play hot pants
But it dont work that way
Sit back, be still
'Cause you would not dance
Now you wanna get ill
I'm tired, I'm weak, I need some sleep
Yo baby, call me tomorrow or give me a beep"
She said "come on D
Don't try to fake it
Come in my house
And let me see you shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it, shake it"
