I come up in the dance with a slip of sensi
Whether peanuts, epitome too, or envy
A family affair, everything is carefree
I ain't get up off the wall until I heard Mary

If you're floatin' real high and you feelin' the vibe
Won't you get on the floor and just dance for me
If you're feeling the groove, it ain't knocking for you
So just get on the floor and just dance for me
And I know you been stressed, this whole week got you messed up
Get on the floor and just dance for me
Just be here ain't no joke, so stay here 'til we're closed
And stay up on the floor and just dance for me

Hey, I know it's been rough, but I'm tryna make it easy
For everybody to dance for me
So come one, come all, come everybody (come on, come on)
Me and you, all of us 'bout to really party (really party)
And you know that we're gonna put it down (put it down)
After two more drinks, we'll be feelin' the sound

If you're floatin' real high and you feelin' the vibe
Won't you get on the floor and just dance for me (come dance with me)
If you're feeling the groove, it ain't knocking for you
So just get on the floor and just dance for me (dance with me)

Get off the wall 'cause I know that you can feel me
Stop the fronting and dance for me
So come one, come all, come everyone (come on, come on)
And me and you, all of us 'bout to really party (really party)
And you know that we're gonna put it down
After four more drinks we'll be fallin' down

If you're floatin' real high and you feelin' the vibe (feel the vibe)
Won't you get on the floor and just dance for me (dance with me, yeah, yeah)
And I know you been stressed, this whole week got you messed up
Get on the floor and just dance for me

Leave all your troubles and your cares behind
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, not tonight, no
Don't drink too much because we have all night
Don't you rush, because it's all night long

If you're floatin' real high and you feelin' the vibe
Won't you get on the floor and just dance for me (dance with me)
If you're feeling the groove, it ain't knocking for you
So just get on the floor and just dance for me (oh, dance for me)
And I know you been stressed, this whole week got you messed up
Get on the floor and just dance for me (dance with me)
Just be here ain't no joke, so stay here 'til we're closed
And stay up on the floor and just dance for me (yeah, yeah, yo)

While ladies shake they thangs, brothers chains swang
Dancing is a ritual we use to maintain
Whether steppin' or Crip walkin', over music, shit talkin'
Hard times get softened in spots we hit often
Off in a loft, basement party, or a strip club
Good times, good wine, gotta skeet to trick dubs
It's up to you, I ain't gon' tell you where you has to be
Like the ghost of Marvin, come on and dance for me

If you're floatin' real high and you feelin' the vibe
Won't you get on the floor and just dance for me
If you're feeling the groove, it ain't knocking for you
So just get on the floor and just dance for me
And I know you been stressed, this whole week got you messed up (dance for me, dance for me)
Get on the floor and just dance for me (dance for me, dance for me)
Just be here ain't no joke, so stay here 'til we're closed (dance for me, come on, come on)
And stay up on the floor and just dance for me 

If you're floatin' real high and you feelin' the vibe (come on, come on, come on, come on)
Won't you get on the floor and just dance for me (come on, come on, come on, come on)
If you're feeling the groove, it ain't knocking for you (come on, come on)
So just get on the floor and just dance for me
