lyrics

Dance Chaka

Verse 1:
Any man say I need to love him,
Shoulda listened to what I told him.
If I wanted to find a man,
I wouldn't be up in this club for women.
Any man thinks that we need him,
take a look at this girl that's dancing.
Any day she could be my baby,
just a look and she drive me crazy.

Chorus:
Dance Chaka, dance Girl! if you want to
Dance Chaka, dance girl! if you need to.
Dance Chaka, dance girl! like it's your room,
Dance Chaka, dance girl! if you feel to!

Verse 2:
Late at night I see you comin,
up and down and you movin funny.
Move your hips like your lookin for something,
baby girl I can tell what you need is.
And every time you gets near me,
my heart starts to beat too quickly,
I can't put two words together,
so let's keep it out on the dance floor!

Chorus

RAP/SPOKEN
It's a strange situation up in the world,
when people hate on another for who they love.
While there's people that prey on little children,
same sex marriage gets everybody trippin.
Take a look at all the history that passed us by,
we gettin flash backs, and no one asks why.
Well I be keepin time like an old watch,
doing rocks, keepin talks everything the body drops and..
I be riding like homes on the pavement,
waiting for the moon just to rock me away and,
I be loving it the way that the sea rolls
talkin to me baby like she's only been my equal.

Outro:
oh oooh
oh oooh
If you want to
If you need to
I'll tell you
She hails from the West and mmhmm well I don't know
She hails from the East and mmhmm well I don't know
She hails from the West and mmhmm well I don't know
She hails from the East and mmhmm well I don't know
mmhmmm well I don't know
