Chick, chicka

You know I can't get away from you, girl
(You've got me shakin')
I need all of the things you do, girl
(My body's aching)
Come on, baby, get up, and rock it to the rhythm
Put out your heart to me
And, lady, let me set you free

Our love will shine at the dawn of a brand new feeling
Just take your time and you'll see that the magic's on its way
Girl, if we try, we can set all our senses reeling
That's the day
You know I got the hots tonight
Night, girl, girl

I go heart beating just for you, girl

Come on, baby, get up, and rock it to the rhythm

Put out your heart to me
And, lady, let me set you free (let me set you free, girl)

You know I got the hots tonight
Tonight, girl, girl

Baby, the love that is waiting inside your temper (hoo-hee, hee-hee)
Show me the passion I feel when I'm by your side (oh, girl)
This is the time to discover the dream we're living (hee)
