Gonna Make You Sweat
C+C Music Factory Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody dance now
Everybody dance now

Give me the music
Give me the music
Everybody dance now
Everybody dance now
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Everybody dance now
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Everybody

Here is the dome, back with the bass
The jam is live in effect and I don't waste time
On the mic with a dope rhyme
Jump to the rhythm, jump, jump to the rhythm, jump
And I'm here to combine
Beats and lyrics to make your shake your pants
Take a chance, come on and dance
Guys, grab a girl, don't wait, make her twirl
It's your world and I'm just a squirrel
Tryin' to get a nut to move your butt
To the dance floor, so yo what's up
Hands in the air, come on, say "yeah"
Everybody over here, everybody over there
The crowd is live and I pursue this groove
Party people in the house

Move (let your mind)
Groove (put me on line)

Come on let's sweat, baby
Let the music take control
Let the rhythm move you
Sweat, sweat
Let the music take control
Let the rhythm move you

Everybody dance now

Everybody dance now
Everybody dance now

Pause, take a breath and go for yours
On my command now hit the dance floor
It's gonna make you sweat 'til you bleed
Is that dope enough? Indeed
I paid the price, to control the dice
I'm more precise, to the point I'm nice
The music takes control, your heart and soul
Unfold, your body is free and a whole
Dance till you can't, dance till you can't dance no more
Get on the floor and get raw
Then come back and upside down
Easy now, let me see ya

Move (let your mind)
Groove (put me on line)
The music is my life

Everybody dance now
Everybody dance now
Everybody dance now
Everybody

Come on let's sweat, baby
Let the music take control
Let the rhythm move you
Sweat, sweat




Let the music take control
Let the rhythm move you

Wow, this was THE song back in the day. It's still a kick-ass song. I just can't wrap my head around the fact that now listening to it, so many years have past and I'm as old as dirt! Lol. I was around 26 when my husband and I were listening to this! Lmao! I'm now, geez...50 friggin years old! Just turned 50 this past Dec. Holy crap! I don't feel that old though, that's the strange thing.
Man, I remember my husband and I bought tickets to see CC which was part of a line-up of several different groups including HEAVY D, R.I.P. and we were extremely excited. We even took a couple of friends of ours and it would've been her first live show ever. As soon as the beat to this started, the excitement and energy from the fans filled the arena.
Everyone was standing, dancing, clapping, you name it. We heard, "Everyone dance now!" and Freedom Williams walked out on stage, sang or rapped a couple of words and BAM! he passed right out on stage, out cold yet, he was still singing through the speakers. He had been lip syncing. The whole song from the beginning was "staged", the lady tried to continue singing her part, but, since he was still out cold and being carried off stage but still hearing him rap, the crowd went ballistic!
Being the skinny white girl, lol, I thought for sure a riot was going to break out. The audience was pissed to the max! Us 4, whitest as white 20 somethings, Lmao, ran like hell to get to the exits before we were crushed. Omg, I was scared shitless!
We made it outside into the breeze way and my husband was gonna get to the box office window to inquire about a refund since the show was cancelled immediately, no one wanted to see the rest of the show by then. NO ONE.
Well, scratch the idea of getting to the ticket counter, there was a mob of people banging on the glass, screaming, yelling, profanities flying, needles to say, instead of waiting in the mob of angry black men, lol, we decided we'd wait it out in the parking lot in our car! Hahaha!
We were SO disappointed! We had waited along time to see this show! The tickets were hell expensive too! Especially when you've purchased 4! Man o man, it was a terrible and unfortunate thing to happen. To all of you who got to see them live? DaMMit!....lol, was It outstanding?! We never got the chance again. They never made it back to our city. 😳 After this happened, we never really heard about them again. Apparently, Freedom passed out from exhaustion and spent a few days in the hospital here. I'm happy to say, we still love this song!
This "new" music, just, is not the same! In our opinion, this was when rap & hip-hop was awesome! Ok, well, it's time for me to take my Geritol and take a nap, lol. 😎💤
Holy crap this post is long! Sorry!

DANCE ON MY RICKETY FRIENDS!🎧

Yes. All acknowledgement to the Queen.

@jesc8827

Well the person who came up with the beat deserves mention as well.

@nyxskids

​@@jesc8827 no one would remember this song if not for her. The beat isn't memorable. Her voice however very much IS memorable.

the beat is secondary

@CountryCruiser

She also is the singer and uncredited in "everybody everybody" by black box
