The lyrics to Antonia's song Shake it Mamma are about a person who has been pursuing someone that they are deeply in love with. The song describes how despite the distance between them, the person has been thinking about the other individual all night and wants to bring them into their life. The lyrics mention how the person is willing to fight through all the obstacles and people in their way to be with the one they love. The phrase "shake it one time mama" is used as a sort of encouragement for the person they are pursuing to dance and let loose, perhaps to help soothe the distance between them.
The repeated use of "shake it one time mama" may also be interpreted as a form of playfulness between the two individuals, a way to express the carefree side of their relationship. The song ends with the lyrics "we got Tom Boxer and Antonia," which is a reference to the song's producers.
