The lyrics of One Way Ft. Al Hudson's song You Can Do It are a powerful encouragement to all listeners to let go of their inhibitions and let their body move to the music without fear of judgement or shame. The opening lines of the song, "Dance! Let your body go," set the tone for the rest of the track. The upbeat tempo and catchy melody create a feeling of freedom and lightness that encourages the listener to let loose and enjoy themselves.
The lyrics repeat the message that there is nothing to fear and that anyone can dance if they want to. The chorus, "Get up and do your thing / (You know you can do it) / And don't you feel your shame / (There's really nothing to it)," reinforces this idea by telling the listener that they are capable of dancing and that they should not feel ashamed for doing so.
The song's message is ultimately one of empowerment and self-confidence. It encourages listeners to embrace their individuality and express themselves through movement. The repetition of the chorus and the catchy melody make the song easy to dance to and memorable, leaving an indelible impression on listeners.

What I find interesting is a year after this record was released
Leon Haywood produced a very similar sounding musical piece
he called 'Don't Push It, Don't Force It' link below and it reminded
me of the argument used against sampling by musicians. So at
what point in the music industry was there a time when no one
was infringing on someone else's musical work?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBs0Vk_OLPc
Same situation when it comes to songs like 'Inside Out' By
Odyssey https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIXK6u2bHTg
and the group Slave and their song Watching You link below:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fh583Cx6qUA
Sampling has always been a part of the music industry way way
before musical samplers were invented.

What a great song 👏🏽👏🏽
@SP-ju2rk
Definitely one of the 10 best disco/funk grooves. All instruments are played at the right place and the good moment. Heard 1000 times and enjoy always this piece of cake! I'm 51 and I think we never done better since. Thanks to Bruno Mars for trying to do something that looks like this... ;-)
@dpalaoro
You know you can do it! ❤️

It sounds as fresh as the day I first heard it. One Way and Al Hudson were on the cutting edge when they emerged in the late 70s. This was the first tune that I ever heard by them.
@MusixMan81
Alicia's voice is the icing on the cake to me. LOVE her voice.
@Organise_Space
