Body II Body

Samantha Mumba · Gotta Tell You (New Version) [2001]

Mama said, "Don't you play around town"

But I just can't control myself

Picking up that boy tonight

Ain't gonna put him down 'til it feels all right



People stop and stare 'cuz looking is fair

Come on over, baby, let me show you how I care

It's getting hot in here, my biorhythms jumping

Got my circulation pumping, we are



Body to body, funk to funky

We know how to rock your party

Body to body, funky to funky

We know how, we know how

We're wreckin' up your party



It's physical not just spiritual attraction

I hear you coming when I ring the dinner bell

Got my phazer set to stun

Now we're gonna have some fun



I got my people up inside, baby, wanna ride

Party's fairly jumping but we're gonna have to slide

I need a miracle, turn it up a little higher

The roof is on fire, we are



Body to body, funk to funky

We know how to rock your party

Body to body, funky to funky

We know how, we know how

We're wreckin' up your party



Body to body, funk to funky

We know how to rock your party

Body to body, funk to funky

We're coming in your house

We know how we're wreckin' up your party



Struck out another line

Making an all time flow



My mama said

To get things done

You gotta go to school

Ain't gonna have no fun



My mama said

You're still too young

You gotta slow it down

Ain't gonna have no fun



My mama said

To get things done

You gotta go to school

Ain't gonna have no fun



My mama said

You're still too young

You gotta slow it down

Ain't gonna have no fun

No, no



'Coz we are

'Coz we are

'Coz we are
