Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A second line is a dance
Where everybody is happy
And they're doing how they feel
They don't necessarily have any set steps to do
They're just getting down

Oh, this feel good

Southern girls do it better, you take defeat
Setting up the ProTools, you take a seat
