about
Composed December 1992
lyrics
Woke up in the mood, ready for this groove, hey
Tried to shake my sleepiness so i'd be ready to make my move
On the right track, ain't no turnin back, ain't it good to hear a
funky song...
The melody's here to soothe you, so let yo' self be soothed
Hopped right out of bed, this melody in my head, hey
Tryin' to remember what my baby said
Now its alright, no one's uptight, it's about time we got it on...
The music's here to guide you, so let yo' self be led
Time to hit the avenue, shakin' off my blues, hey
Found myself an aqua suit and some funky shoes
Now its real cool, no one act a fool, now we're ready to git it on...
The rhythm's here to move ya, so now its up to you
Ya gotta rise and shine now, it's your turn to steer, hey
Gotta get yo' butt in second gear cause the time to act is near
On the right track, ain't no turnin' back, it's about time we got it
on...
Just find the drive within' you, baby, and you'll have nothin' to fear
As I sing this funky song, nothin' can go wrong, hey
Just follow my direction as I string you along
Now it's alright, no one's uptight, now we're ready to get it on...
Let's funk this joint up - you've waited far too long!
Tried to shake my sleepiness so i'd be ready to make my move
On the right track, ain't no turnin back, ain't it good to hear a
funky song...
The melody's here to soothe you, so let yo' self be soothed
Hopped right out of bed, this melody in my head, hey
Tryin' to remember what my baby said
Now its alright, no one's uptight, it's about time we got it on...
The music's here to guide you, so let yo' self be led
Time to hit the avenue, shakin' off my blues, hey
Found myself an aqua suit and some funky shoes
Now its real cool, no one act a fool, now we're ready to git it on...
The rhythm's here to move ya, so now its up to you
Ya gotta rise and shine now, it's your turn to steer, hey
Gotta get yo' butt in second gear cause the time to act is near
On the right track, ain't no turnin' back, it's about time we got it
on...
Just find the drive within' you, baby, and you'll have nothin' to fear
As I sing this funky song, nothin' can go wrong, hey
Just follow my direction as I string you along
Now it's alright, no one's uptight, now we're ready to get it on...
Let's funk this joint up - you've waited far too long!
