Got To Give It Up (Live in Montreux 1980)

[Verse 1]

I used to go out to parties

And stand around, ooh baby

I was too nervous, baby

To really get down

But my body yearned to be free

I got up on the floor, boy

So somebody could choose me

No more standin' there beside the walls

I done got myself together, baby

And now I'm havin' a ball, woo

As long as you're groovin' there's always a chance

Somebody watchin' might wanna make romance

[Bridge]

Move it up, ooh, turn it 'round

Ooh ooh, shake it down, ooh baby

Ow, ooh, ooh

Just let me in

Baby, just party all night long

Let me step into your erotic zone, woo

Ooh, baby, move it up, turn it 'round, ooh

Ooh ooh, shake it down, baby, ah baby

Ow, you can bump it where you want to, baby

This is such a groovy party, baby, when you're face to face

And everybody's screamin' "This is such a groovy place"

Ooh, all the young ladies are so fine

Movin' your body leaves me with no doubt

I know what you thinkin', baby

You wanna turn me out

I'll let you do it, baby

Keep on dancin', ah baby, got to give it up

Keep on dancin', ooh baby, got to give it up

Keep on dancin', baby, ooh, oh, got to give it up

Keep on dancin', yeah, I got to give it up

Going for your own, baby? Keep on dancin', got to give it up

Keep on dancin', woo, baby, got to give it up

In the morning, baby, I, oh Lord, got to give it up

Keep on dancin', Lord have mercy, baby, ow, got to give it up

Keep on dancin', ooh baby, got to give it up

Keep on dancin', woo, baby, got to give it up

Every morning, baby, I'm gonna give it up, baby

Listen to me, yeah, got to give it up, woo

Hey baby, got to give up, baby

Keep on dancin', woo, I got to give it up
