Hip Hop" (Lyrics - 1990 Deborah Ann's Music, Inc. ASCAP)

Hip hop move your body
Hip hop groove your body

VERSE 1:
Even the score
On a crowded dance floor
You can dance your butt off
Leave them begging for more
Now's the time to settle the score
With this notion
People look better
When they're caught in motion

Never coming up for air
It's so right
Why don't you care
Don't come down off
This natural high

CHORUS:
Hip hop
Groove your body
Not with just anybody
Hiphop 'til ya drop, oh-
Hip hop, shake what ya got
Don't mean a thing
Without that swing
Hop 'til ya drop then stop

VERSE 2:
When the energy flows
The energy flos
Where it stops nobody knows
Lost in time, all alone
You're headed for
THE HIP HOP ZONE (HUH)

Never coming up for air
When the beat is there
Never failed to get control, oh-

CHORUS
REPEAT CHORUS
(Got a groove)
(Got a groove)

Yo Chris-my homeboy. What's up, C?
RAP:
I'm hip hoppin' on the dance floor
I'm kickin' it like never before
I'm showing everybody that I can dance
And if ya wanna join me
I'll give ya the chance

Ya gotta do it (do it)-
D-d-d-d-do it (do it)
Hip hop
Do it (do it)
D-d-d-d-do it
Yeah, come on, do it

VERSE 3:
Here's your chance
Ready or not
Come on, girls
Give what ya got
Don't you stop
'Til you get to the top-oh-





CHORUS
