INTRO
You wanna dance with me baby?
Come on, let's do this...
Everybody's dancin' on the floor
Like they want to (uh, I'm good to go, don't you know)
Everybody's doin' they own thang (like they wanna)
You gotta get hip to (get some more, on the floor)
INTRO HOOK
Some people say we're crazy (crazy baby)
Cause we dance like this (uh, doin' the funky chicken, yeah baby)
But we don't really give a hey hey
So come on, dance like this
VERSE I
Uh, you wear them britches pretty tight
And I'm losing my sight
I'm just a brother on the street
With some merchandise (merchandise baby)
I can see the glow in your eye
When you shake them big ol' thighs
You feel so romantic (huh, I need some sugar baby)
B-SECTION I
Put your shoes on
Get your groove on
And dance like this
Uh-boogie-bop-n-boogie-woogie-boobie
X 2
HOOK
Some people think we're crazy (crazy baby)
Cause we dance like this
Shakin' it up, shakin' it down, go round and round
But we don't really give a hey hey (dance)
So come on, dance like this
Shakin' it up, shakin' it down
VERSE II
I just wanna set you free
Shake them peaches off your tree
And I'm loving the way you look at me
Owww, from what I can see
Got that wiggle in your walk
In them tight short shorts
Ain't got time to talk
When we dancin' you're the boss (owww)

HOOK IV
“MORE THAN THANKFUL”
written by Brian Culbertson, Nicholas Cole, Denise White-Johnson & Dana Johnson
VERSE I
Have you ever felt like
You were moving too fast
So busy being busy
No time to rest
PRE I
Always thinking about tomorrow
While you’re missing out today
Not a minute to count your blessings
VERSE II
Have you ever been so
So consumed by life
That you forget to be grateful
And you lose your light
PRE II
Instead of thinking about tomorrow
Don’t you miss out on today
Take a minute to count your blessings
So here’s what, you should say
CHORUS
Look where I am
I’m so happy
I’m more than thankful
Cause I’m right where I should be
VERSE III
Have you ever wanted
To be someone else
Let me tell you that ain’t never gonna happen
So just be yourself
PRE III
Instead thinking about tomorrow
Don’t you miss out on today
Take a minute to count your blessings
And here’s what, you should say

“THE TRUTH"
written by Brian Culbertson & Noel Gourdin
VERSE I
Lately, things've been a bit rocky, but
I believe... that we, we can fix it yeah, yeah
You, have been so cold to me
And I don't know, what you’ve been through
But I just need to know why
PRE I
Baby, all you gotta do is tell me (tell me)
And baby, I don't know what's wrong but we can push through
(we can push through)
I love you, I want the same things that you do
So tell me babe, just say it baby
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, oh...
CHORUS
Ohhh…
Tell me the truth
I can't take no more, no more lies
No matter what, it's you and I
Ohhh…
Tell me the truth
Oh just let it out, ’n tell me now
If you love me, than tell me the truth
VERSE II
I'm here, for you, pretty baby
I ain't goin' nowhere, trust me I swear
Ohhhh... my loyalty is to you yeah, yeah...
Oh... I deserve... your honesty...
PRE II
Baby, all you gotta do is tell me (tell me)
And baby, I don't know what's wrong but we can push through
(we can push through)
I love you, and I want the same things that you do
So tell me babe, just say it baby
Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, yeah...

Ya know baby, I've been thinkin'
If there's somethin' that I did
Then I'm sorry, hmmm
PIANO SOLO
BRIDGE
Betrayal by deception, don't crush my soul girl I'm hurtin'
I cross my heart, and hope to die if I ain't got your lovin' in my life
Don't be ashamed to let me know (let me know)
What's eatin' at you baby let it go
Did you cheat on me, are you undercover
Did you fall for another
CHORUS X 2, FADE OUT
