[Intro]
(Spoken:)
I just felt like a little twerp
A tiny little twerp with no one who believes in me
Except for one beautiful woman
That one beautiful woman got me through
And now I'm gonna sing a little song about it
I hope you're listening. This one's for you, baby
If I could say something
To one of my childhood heroes...
If I could sing you a song
This is for you, Whitney!
[Verse 1]
I got a cla**ic beat on my boombox stereo
I'm flippin' down the street
In Nowhereville, Ohio
There's no one out there who can doubt
There's something 'bout the way
That I've been moving 'round
It's 1989, and I got the rhythm now
Sure, they call me freak
But when I sing, they be freakin' out
It's Whitney Houston that I'm usin'
To get loose and get my
Soul life groovin' down
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I Wanna Dance With Somebody
Anybody, get me out of this town
[Chorus]
I-I-I got the right kind of music
It's my kind of music
And I know what to do
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music
With you
I-I-I got the right kind of music
I know how to use it
And you're getting me through
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music
With you
[Verse 2]
I pretend Madonna is my mama
And Prince is my dad
And Michael Jackson's always askin'
"How are you so Bad?"
And Georgie M is my best friend
And says, "Listen, you've got hold onto your Faith," (Yeah)
But if all them boys kick up their noise
And cut me with their lines
I got my Whitney always wit' me
To get through this time
How Will I Know? Someday I'll show 'em
And I'll go and get the f– out of this place
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, I get So Emotional, baby
But I know they won't forget my face
[Chorus]
I-I-I got the right kind of music
It's my kind of music
And I know what to do
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music
With you
I-I-I got the right kind of music
I know how to use it
And you're getting me through
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music
With you
[Bridge]
I don't know where I belong
So I turn up this song that you're singing to me
And all at once, there's a way
Love is saving the day, this how it should be
Where Do Broken Hearts Go, baby?
'Cause this broken heart is breakin' free
[Chorus]
I-I-I got the right kind of music
It's my kind of music
And I know what to do
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music
With you
I-I-I got the right kind of music
I know how to use it
And you're getting me through
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music
With you
(Yeah)
I-I-I got the right kind of music (The right kind of music)
It's my kind of music
And I know what to do (I know what to do)
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music
With you (I got, I got the right kind of music)
I-I-I got the right kind of music (Oh, oh, oh)
I know how to use it
And you're getting me through (You're getting me through)
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music (Yeah, oh, oh)
With you (Oh, I got the right kind of music)
I-I-I got the right kind of music (Oh, Oh)
It's my kind of music (Yeah)
And I know what to do (I know what to do)
('Cause) I-I-I got the right kind of music
With you (I-I-I-I-I-I-I got the music)
I-I-I got the right kind of music
(I'm Saving All My Love for You)
I know how to use it
And you're getting me through
(Oh, I'm Saving All My Love...)
