Get up, get down, get funky, get loose 
Come on 
Get up, get down, get funky, get loose 
Whatcha come out here for? 
Whatcha come out here for? 
Do you want to party? 
Do you want to dance? 
Come on people and come and get down, down 
Down, down, down, down. 

I come out here to party 
And party is what I'm gonna do 
I done worked hard both night and day 
And now it's time for me to shake it loose 

Took me an hour just to get here 
Do you think I'm going to stand up on the wall? 
Gonna have myself a ball, do you hear me? 
Have myself a ball, come on y'all. 

Come on get up, get down, get funky, get loose 
Get up, get down, get funky, get loose 
Whatcha come out here for? 
Whatcha come out here for? 
Do you want to party? do you want to dance? 
Come on people come on and get down, down 
Down, down, down, down. 

Although this crowd is full of people 
There's room enough for you and me 
I can get a chance to hold you in my arms 
And whisper something sweet in your ear. 
When you're having fun the time just slips away 
So let's make use of the moments that we share. 
Let's act like we don't care, do ya hear me? 
Free like a bird in the air, come on people. 

Get up, get down, get funky, get loose 
Get up, get down, get funky, get loose 
Whatcha come out here for? whatcha come out here for? 
Do you want to party? do you want to dance? 
Come on people and get down, down 
Down, down, down, down, down down down. 

Get up, get down, get funky, get loose 
Get up, get down, get funky, get loose 

Come on people 
Come on! 

Come on clap your hands 
Come on 

Do you feel like dancin, yeah 
Do you feel like dancin?
