[Intro:]
I don't know about you
But if your feeling the groove
You know what you gotta do
It's got to be fire!

[Chorus:]
Let's Dance
Get on the floor
No need to hold back
Sexy thong, mini-skirt, stilletos
And shakin' all that
What you doin' to me
Girl I can't hold back
Some Hot Stuff
Is all that I need
So why we waitin'
Let's Dance

[Verse 1:]
Hit the floor
Show me what you workin'
Sequins on your skirt
Insentuates all of your curves and
Girl you know I'm likin'
All the things your doin'
Specially when them other girls
Be checkin' out your moves and

Girl I want in
The way you turnin' me on
I can't even begin
You so hot like you come
Straight out of the kitchen
When you dip it down low
Cuz we trippin'
Cuz now other guys be lookin'
At you cuz your so damn fine
Really blows my mind
Girl it's all about you
So what we gonna do

[Chorus:]

[Verse 2:]
On the floor
As I pull you close in
Hands all up my back
With my arms wrapped around your waist and
Temperature be risin'
Beat straight hypnotizin'
Ain't no time for talkin'
Girl let's keep this whole thing movin'

Know what I'm sayin'
I been away bein' straight up misbehavin'

Girl you makin' me hard what I'm feelin'
Especially when you spin around
all up on my (beep)
I ain't even playin' (That's Right)
So many things I wanna do (Tonight)
You make we wanna go home with you (That's Right)
So maybe playa like to think through
But right now it's all about me and you so

[Chorus: 2x]

[Bridge:]
The way that you move it's got me fiendin' for more
Clear up the strobe it's getting down on the floor
Send complete empty actions girl hope that so I do
But it ain't about me no
It's all about you

Don't want this to stop so let the record just play
Think the crowd wants the re-wind get it from the DJ
Girl I wish that we didn't have our clothes on at all
But before head to the door

[Chorus: 2x]
