The Heat
Eddy Kenzo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The way ya dancing
Olalale... eya
Olalale... eyaaa
The way ya dancing

Are you feeling the beat
Are you feeling the heat
[Say, Say] Are you feeling the beat
I will make 'em, if you don't forget 'em

Kill them with the style, you are the wicked
Baddest girl in the feel it
Maama, ono muwala yalungiwa
Tosobola nakumwetamwa
Kati tuula otelele, DJ omuziki asumule
Are you feeling the beat
Are you feeling the heat
[Say, Say] Are you feeling the beat
Are you feeling the heat
II
Oh yah baby ya feel me [Oh yah, nsaaga]
It is the sweetest feeling [bump it, go beat, take it slow]
Gyatugende, Gyatulumbe
Baby, you and me, ffe tuthimbe
Couple yaffe, lye vakko lyaffe
Ahh [Koona]!

Are you feeling the beat
Are you feeling the heat
[Say, Say] Are you feeling the beat
Are you feeling the heat

Olalale... eya
Olalale... eyaaa
The way ya dancing

Shake mu style, oyina pony tail
Kyakaza obulamu, tukuteke mu file
Nti walya ssente n'ozimalayo mu wallet
In the name of love, I don't know
Let me share my love, with you

Are you feeling the beat
Are you feeling the heat
[Say, Say] Are you feeling the beat
Are you feeling the heat
Hook
I will make 'em, if you don't forget 'em
Make 'em, don't forget 'em
Outro Verse
Eddy Kenzo pon de
Kyakaza obulamu, tukuteke mu file
Nti walya ssente n'ozimalayo mu wallet
Najagala lover, ng'ayinamu ka style
