On The Floor
Jennifer Lopez [Feat. Pitbull] Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's a new generation
Mr. Worldwide
Of party people
Get on the floor, dale, get on the floor
Red one
Let me introduce you to my party people in the club, huh
I'm loose
And everybody knows I get off the chain
Baby it's the truth, it's the truth
I'm like Inception
I play with your brain
So don't sleep or snooze
I don't play no games so don't, don't, don't
Don't get it confused no
'Cause you will lose yeah
Now, no pu-pu-pu-pu-pump it up
And back it up like a Tonka truck
Dale
If you go hard you gotta get on the floor
If you're a party freak then step on the floor
If you're an animal then tear up the floor
Break a sweat on the floor
Yeah we work on the floor
Don't stop, keep it movin'
Put your drinks up
Pick your body up and drop it on the floor
Let the rhythm change your world on the floor
You know we're running shit tonight on the floor
Brazil, Morocco, London to Ibiza
Straight to LA, New York, Vegas to Africa
Dance the night away
Live your life and stay young on the floor
Dance the night way
Grab somebody, drink a little more
(Así me gusta, así me gusta, así me gusta)
(Así me gusta, así me gusta)
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
I know you got it
Clap your hands on the floor
And keep on rockin'
Rock it up on the floor
If you're a criminal, kill it on the floor
Steal it quick on the floor, on the floor
Don't stop, keep it movin'
Put your drinks up
It's getting ill
It's getting sick on the floor
We never quit, we never rest on the floor
If I ain't wrong we'd probably die on the floor
Brazil, Morocco, London to Ibiza
Straight to LA, New York, Vegas to Africa
Dance the night away
Live your life and stay young on the floor
Dance the night away
Grab somebody, drink a little more
(Así me gusta, así me gusta, así me gusta)
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
That badonka donk
Is like a trunk full of bass on an old school Chevy
Seven tray donkey donk
All I need is some vodka, some chonky konk
And watch and she gon' get Donkey Kong
Baby if you're ready for things to get heavy
I get on the floor and act a fool if you let me dale
Don't believe me just bet me
My name ain't Keith but I see why you sweat me
L.A., Miami, New York
Say no more get on the floor
Dance the night away
Live your life and stay young on the floor
Dance the night away
Grab somebody, drink a little more
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
La la la la la la la la la la la la la la
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
The lyrics to "On The Floor" by Jennifer Lopez feat. Pitbull are all about letting loose and having a good time on the dance floor. J. Lo starts off by introducing the party people in the club, and then boasts about her wild and free spirit. She compares herself to Inception, playing with people's minds and not letting them snooze or sleep. The chorus encourages everyone to get on the floor and break a sweat, with Pitbull adding his signature hype and ad-libs. The bridge highlights various cities all over the world where people know how to dance and have a good time, and encourages the listener to grab somebody and drink a little more. Throughout the song, the beat stays consistent and high-energy, making it impossible not to dance along.
Furthermore, the lyrics can be interpreted as advocating for freedom of expression, and living life to the fullest. It encourages the listener to let go of inhibitions and embrace their inner animal, and to just have a good time without worrying about what others might think. On a deeper level, "On The Floor" can be interpreted as a message about the universality of dance as a uniting force, bringing together people from different places, cultures, and backgrounds.

We never quit, we never rest on the floor
We party hard all night long without taking breaks or stopping
If I ain't wrong we'd probably die on the floor
We're having so much fun that we might never want to stop
That badonka donk
Referring to a woman's curvy behind
Is like a trunk full of bass on an old school Chevy
Her behind is like the bass on an old car stereo system
Seven tray donkey donk
Another reference to a woman's curvy behind
All I need is some vodka, some chonky konk
All I need to have fun is some alcohol and a good time
And watch and she gon' get Donkey Kong
She's going to dance like crazy and have a great time
Baby if you're ready for things to get heavy
If you're ready for serious partying, get out here and dance
I get on the floor and act a fool if you let me dale
If you let me, I'll dance and have fun all night long
Don't believe me just bet me
I'm so confident in my dancing skills, you should bet money on me
My name ain't Keith but I see why you sweat me
My name isn't Keith, but I still know you're sweating me (i.e., admiring me)
L.A., Miami, New York
The biggest party cities in the U.S.
Say no more get on the floor
There's no need to ask me twice, I'm already dancing
Tonight we gon' be it on the floor
Tonight we're going to party and dance all night long
