Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
cnd now were saying goodbye, from the funny feelings of love inside
Your always making me see, the things of love that you do for free
crn't given so easily, and that ain't making it easy
It was a feeling I do recall, from the floor to the ceiling
cnd the top of the fall
You took it all back, you did it up right
ch yeah, ah yo, ah yes, I know
Ha high, and Heidi Ho, ha high, and high low
Give it baby, I'm ready for love
Shake it baby, do it this way or that
Give it baby, did you hear what I say
Shake it baby on me
Your always telling me why, but never showing the reasons why
cnd now were saying goodbye, from the forceful feelings of love inside
It could be happy I could be sad, from the force of the feeling for the best I had
You took it all back and you did me wrong, now I'm singing this song
Give it baby, I'm ready for love
Shake it baby, do it this way or that
Shake it baby, did you hear what I say
Shake it baby on me
ch yeah, ah yo, ah yes, I know
Ha high, and Heidi Ho, ah yeah, high low, ah
Give it baby, I'm ready for love
Shake it, do it just one more time
Give it baby, did you hear what I say
Shake it baby on me
Give it baby
cnd do it baby
Shake it baby, I'm ready for love
Shake it baby on me
