¼Ö˹͡Justin Timberlake Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't be so quick to walk away (Dance with me)
I wanna rock your body, please stay (Dance with me)
You don't have to admit you wanna play (Dance with me)
Just let me rock you till the break of day (Dance with me)

Got time, but I don't mind
Just wanna rock you, girl
I'll have whatever you have
Come on let's give it a whirl

See, I've been watchin' you
And I like the way you move
So go 'head, girl, just do it
That ass shakin' thing you do

So you grab your girls and you grab a couple more
And you all could meet me in the middle of the floor
Said the air is thick, it's smellin' right
So you pass to the left, then you sail to the right

Don't be so quick to walk away (Dance with me)
I wanna rock your body, please stay (Dance with me)
You don't have to admit you wanna play (Dance with me)
Just let me rock you till the break of day (Dance with me)

I don't mean no harm
Just wanna rock you, girl
We could move, but we
Let's go, let's give it a whirl

See, it appears to me
You like the way I move
I tell you what I'm gon' do
Pull you close to share my groove

So you grab your girls and you grab a couple more
And you all could meet me in the middle of the floor
Said the air is thick, it's smellin' right
So you pass to the left, then you sail to the right

Don't be so quick to walk away (Dance with me)
I wanna rock your body, please stay (Dance with me)
You don't have to admit you wanna play (Dance with me)
Just let me rock you till the break of day (Dance with me)

{Talk to me, boy} No disrespect, I don't mean no harm
{Talk to me, boy} I can't wait to have you in my arms
{Talk to me, boy} Hurry up 'cause you're takin' too long
{Talk to me, boy} Bet I'll have you naked by the end of this song

So what did you come here for {I came to dance with you}
You don't wanna hit the floor {Get some romance with you}
Been searchin' for love for evermore {I'll take a chance}
If love is here on the floor, girl

Yeah
Dance with me
Yeah
Come on, baby

Don't be so quick to walk away (Dance with me)
I wanna rock your body, please stay (Dance with me)
You don't have to admit you wanna play (Dance with me)
Just let me rock you till the break of day (Dance with me)

{Talk to me, boy} No disrespect, I don't mean no harm
{Talk to me, boy} I can't wait to have you in my arms
{Talk to me, boy} Hurry up 'cause you're takin' too long
{Talk to me, boy} Bet I'll have you naked by the end of this song

Don't be so quick to walk away (I was just thinkin' of you)
Don't be so quick to walk away (We could do somethin')
Don't be so quick to walk away (I like the way you look right now)
Don't be so quick to walk away (Come over here, baby)

Are you feelin' me
Let's do somethin'




Let's make a bet
'Cause I-I bet I'll have you naked by the end of this song

@@me-pz5yi We admire their "beauty" of the rich and famous. Are they truly beautiful? as they seem to have:
- hoofs for the legs
- bald heads
- animal faced /birds, dogs, wolves , you name it)
- tails
- horns


(Channels which share knowledge about this topic:

But they "look" human?. Sure they do. They must hide, of we would kill them as we would then know, who they are (offspring of Cain = the cursed bloodline)
But they "look" human?. - it is just an illusion.
What`s underneath the illusion? - didn`t you already get a picture?


Ever noticed that every singer has at least 1 dark song?
Could it be, they sharing their experience after signing the blood contract?
M J – has “thriller”
K P – has “wide awake”

Fun little music fact:
Justin Timberlake’s “Rock Your Body” was originally written by Pharrell for Michael Jackson's final album, Invincible.

@TheChadPad

Justin co-wrote it with Pharrell and Chad Hugo

@mihusnooker

Good thing Justin took the song, it was made for him. Michael singing this... nope thanks.

@Chris_aspiration

The beat was for Mike. But Pharrell and JT wrote it to fit Justin
