Lyrics:

Well my temperature's rising
Got my feet on the floor
Twenty people rockin' sayin' more more more
Come on, pretty baby, I don't know what you've got
But you'd better take it easy
This place is hot

And I'm so glad we made it
So glad we made it
Won't you come on
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme some lovin' every day

Well I feel so good, everybody's getting high
I'm gonna take it easy
'Cause the place is on fire
Been a hard day, nothing's been too good
Now I'm gonna relax honey, everybody should

And I'm so glad we made it
So glad we made it
Won't you come on
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme some lovin'
Gimme some lovin' every day

Spoken (Taylor): "Well I heard about the fella you've been dancing with all over
the neighborhood. So why didn't you ask me baby, or didn't you think I could..."
All sing: Well I know that the Boogiloo is out of sigh
But the shangaling she's playing tonight
But if that were you and me hotta baby
I'd come to show you how to do right
Do it right, uh-huh, do it right
Do it right, do it right, do it right
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Twisting, shake-it shake-it shake-it
Shake-it baby
Twisting, shake-it shake-it shake-it
Shake-it baby
Here we go loop-dee-loop, uh-huh
Shake it up baby
Here we go loop-dee-li
Bend over and let me see you shake your tail feather
Bend over and let me see you shake your tail feather
Come on and let me see you shake your tail feather
Come on and let me see you shake your tail feather
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Twisting, shake-it shake-it shake-it
Shake-it baby
Twisting, shake-it shake-it shake-it
Shake-it baby
Oh, do the twist
Do the fly!
Do the mash potato!
Come on and do the bird
The phoney moroney
Come on and do the swim
The watoosie
Come on and do the twist
Ohhhhh!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Well, I feel so good
Everybody's gettin' high
I'm gonna take it easy
'Cause the place is on fire
Been a hard day, nothin' went too good
Now I'm gonna relax honey, everybody should

And I'm so glad we made it
So glad we made it
So glad we made it
So glad we made it this time
Won't you come on
Gimme some lovin'
