Hey, come on, come along take a ride
There's a party over there, that ain't no jive
It's live, live, it's all the way live
Don't even have to walk, don't even have to drive
Just slide, glide, slippity-slide
Just forget about your troubles and your nine to five
And just sail on (that's what you do), just sail on
Now this groove's so funky, hey, what to you think
What is it called, let's call it Lakeside stank

Everybody happy (do you wanna party)
We create the beat (that foot stompin' music)
That keeps the people dancin' (uh-huh)

Nothing but pleasure, musical pleasure (want you to feel)
'Cause music is a world of fantasy (it's a fantasy)
Let's live it together (a pleasure), musical pleasure (come along, come along, come along)
