“DANCE LIKE THIS”

written by Brian Culbertson, Chance Howard, William “Bootsy” Collins & Ouiwey Collins

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)

VERSE III

I’m systematically stuck  on high - ( there’s an extra space between ‘stuck’ and ‘on’, please remove)

Drivin' with my crew in my 8-wheel drive (8 wheels mane)

Lookin' forward to an all night ride

Come and go to the club wit me

Dance and have some fun wit me

HOOK III

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

CHORUS X 2


“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...


CHORUS X 2


BREAKDOWN

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
