The Block Party

[Intro]

Shake - shake - shake it down now

Yeah yeah, One time

One - two time, uh, uh

Shake - shake it down now

Shake it down now, uh uh

[Verse 1]

Remember way back in the day

Hey! Hey!

When the kids from around the way

Used to come out and play

And the double dutch bus had you bumpin' on down the street

Tryin' to move your feet

While you shake your little booty to the groovin' beat

To the beat, to the beat-beat

You hit the corner and you stopped

Hey y'all there's a party on the other block

We hit the jackpot, jackpot

What?! What?!

And it's only twelve o'clock

And the sun is hot, free soda pop

We 'bout to rock, rock...

[Pre-Chorus: Little Girl]

What's your name?

Lisa

And where you from?

Ninth street

Where you going?

To the party!

Can I come?

Uh-huh

[Pre-Chorus]

Ooh they playin’ hop scotch

(Come on, come on hop with me, come on)

Ooh them boys is pop lockin'

(Come on, come on bounce with me)

[Chorus]

We were dancin' all night long

We were dancin' all night long

Music bumpin' and we're jumpin'

And they're playin' our favorite songs

We were dancin' all night long

We were dancin' all night long

Music bumpin' and we're jumpin'

And they're playin' our favorite songs

[Bridge]

I'm a big city girl from all over the world

And I do what I wanna do

Right foot, left shoe

Then you take it on down

Then you shake it around

Bring it up, clap your hands

Then you turn it all around

We were dancin' all night long

We were dancin' all night long

Music bumpin' and we're jumpin'

And they're playin' our favorite songs

[Verse 2]

Remember when we did the wop? ha-ha

And you used to make that head bop

Like it would never stop

And them other grown folks gettin' busy with the jigolo

Drinkin' Michelob

It was 6 am before they hit the road

Hit the road, hit the road, road

Them phat gold chains and high top fades

Hey! Run DMC was all you ever played

Shell toe Adidas, no strings, hmm-mmm

Something cookin' in the spot, about to hit the spot

Boom box, baby play me some of that Hip-Hop...

[Pre-Chorus: Man]

What's your name?

Lisa

And where you from?

Ninth street

Where you going?

To the party!

Can I come?

Uh-huh

[Pre-Chorus 2]

Ooh they 'bout to get it on

(Come on, come on bounce with me, come on)

Ooh they on the dance floor

(Come on, come on walk with me)

[Chorus]

We were dancin' all night long

We were dancin' all night long

Music bumpin' and we're jumpin'

And they're playin' our favorite songs

We were dancin' all night long

We were dancin' all night long

Music bumpin' and we're jumpin'

And they're playin' our favorite songs

Come on, come on bounce with me, come on

Come on, come on groove with me

Come on, come on walk with me

Come on, come on hop with me

Repeat 1 (2x)

Repeat 2

Repeat 1 till end
