Dance Rock Feel the heat
Rock your body to the Native Beat

[Chorus]
Step by step

Slowly I turn
Step by step
See'mon
Well here I am I got the heat
I'm gonna rock to the rhythm of the Body heat

See'mon now lets have big fun
Rock to the rhythm lets get undone

Designer jeans my teenage dream
Of love is on my mind
This Native Love is restless
And I'm just not satisfied

And I never get enough 
Of that Native Love 

[Chorus]

Slowly I turn
Step by step

See'mon
My car is by Ferrari
And my body's Jack La Lanne
My clothes are by Armani
And my hair is by Elaine
Tiffany and Cartier are
Telling me the time
This Native Love is restless
And I'm just not satisfied
And I never

[Chorus]

Slowly I turn
Step by step
See'mon

Hey GO man here
I am for everyone to see
If I'm not your type
Well that's alright
Cause that just don't matter to me
I got the rhythm and the rhyme
And I'm right on time
And I'm gonna blow your mind
This Native Love is restless
And I'm just not satisfied

[Chorus]

Slowly I turn
Step by step
See'mon

Divine

Divinity or the divine are things that are either related to, devoted to, or proceeding from a deity. What is or is not divine may be loosely defined, as it is used by different belief systems. Under monotheism and polytheism this is clearly delineated. However, in pantheism and animism this becomes synonymous with concepts of sacredness and transcendence. more »
