I'll tell you why I wanna dance
It ain' de sweetness in de music~
I like de sweetness in de music
But dat ain' why I wanna dance
It's sumpin' thumpin' in de ba**
A bumpin' underneath de music
Dat bum-bum-bumpin' under music
Is all I need
To start me off
I don't need nuthin' else to start me off
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
An' I don' need no tune at all!
Beat me dat rhythm on a drum
Beat me dat rhythm on a drum
Beat me dat rhythm on a drum
An' I don' need no tune at all!
I feel it beatin' in my bones
It feel like twen'y millyun tomtoms
I know dere's twen'y millyun tomtoms
Beatin' way down deep inside my bones
I feel it beatin' in my heart
An' den I get a kin' o' dream
An' in my dream it kin' o' seem
Dere's jus' one heart
In all de worl'~
Dere ain't but one big heart for all de worl'
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
Dere's one big heart for all de wor'!
Beat me dat rhythm on a drum
Beat me dat rhythm on a drum
Beat me dat rhythm on a drum
Dere's one big heart for all de worl'!
An' now dat heart is beatin' fast
An' dat's a rhythm I kin dance to
I'm mighty glad I got a chance to
Wid dat one big heart dat's beatin' fast
Tomorrow mornin' let it rain
Tomorrow mornin' let it pour
Tonight we's in de groove together~
Ain' gonna worry 'bout stormy weather~
Gonna kick ol' trouble out de door!
Beat out ol' trouble on a drum
Beat out ol' trouble on a drum
Beat out ol' trouble on a drum
An' kick his carca** through de door!
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
Beat out dat rhythm on a drum
An' kick ol' trouble out de door!
Kick 'im out de door!
Kick 'im out de door!
Kick 'im out de door!
