Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Oh well, dance all night, play all day

And don't let nothin' get in the way

Dance all night and keep the beat

Don't you worry 'bout two left feet

[Verse 2]

Shake it up

Shake it up (Ooh, yeah)

Shake it up

Shake it up

[Verse 3]

Oh, well, we dance all night and get real loose

Well, you don't need no bad excuse

Dance all night with anyone

Don't let nobody pick your fun

[Verse 4]

Shake it up (Ooh, ooh)

Shake it up (Yeah, yeah)

Shake it up (Ooh, ooh)

Shake it up

[Verse 5]

That's right, I said dance all night

(Go, go, go)

And dance all night

(Get real low)

Go all night

(Get real hot)

Well, shake it up now

All you've got, woo

[Verse 6]

Dance

Ooh, dance

[Verse 7]

Oh well, dance all night and whirl your hair

Make the night cats stop and stare

Dance all night, go to work

Do the move with the quirky jerk

[Verse 8]

Just shake it up (Ooh, ooh)

Shake it up (Ooh, yeah)

Shake it up (That's right)

Shake it up

[Verse 9]

Oh, well, dance all night

(Go, go, go)

Get so light

(Get real low)

Dance all night

(Get real hot)

Shake it up

With all you've got, woo

[Verse 10]

Shake it up, make a scene

Let 'em know what you really mean

And dance all night, keep the beat

And don't you worry 'bout two left feet

[Verse 11]

Just shake it up (Ooh, ooh)

Shake it up (Ooh, ooh, ooh, yeah)

Shake it up (Ooh, ooh)

Shake it up (Oh, yeah)

Shake it up (Shake it up, shake it up, baby)

Shake it up (Shake it up, ooh, ooh)

Shake it up (Shake it up, shake it up, baby)

Shake it up (Shake it up, ooh, ooh)

[Verse 12]

Shake it up (Ooh)

Shake it up (Ooh, yeah, yeah)

Shake it up (Ooh, ooh)

Shake it up (Shake it up)

Shake it up (Shake it up, shake it, baby)

Shake it up (Shake it up, ooh, ooh)

Shake it up

Shake it up
