I'm getting ready
See the moonlight on the town
I'm getting ready
I'm gonna put on my stepping shoes
'Cause I, I'm getting ready
Walk the streets and spread the news
I'm gonna call you on the telephone
Gonna tell somebody
There's a party going on
Shake it up tonight, ooh, ooh
Show you how to party right, yeah
Shake it up tonight, ooh, ooh
Show you how to party right, yeah
Gonna be a lot of people there
Don't you wanna be ready
There'll be coming from everywhere
I'm getting ready
Don't you know I wanna
Be with you tonight, oh, oh
Come on, baby
'Cause we're gonna do it right
I'm getting ready
Let me feel the rhythm in your heart
Just put your hands together
When the music starts
Shake it up tonight, ooh, ooh
Show you how to party right, yeah
Shake it up tonight, ooh, ooh
Move your body left and right
I wanna, I wanna
Shake it up tonight, ooh, ooh

Shake it up tonight
Shake it up tonight, ooh, ooh
Dance the night away, ooh
Shaking my body up and down tonight
Said the time is right
Oh, I'm gonna shake my body tonight
And move my hips from left to right
I'm gonna shake my body tonight
I wanna shake it down now
Oh, I can't wait
Until the sun goes down
Oh, I, I'm getting ready
See the moonlight on the town
I'm getting ready
Gonna put on my stepping shoes
'Cause I, I wanna be ready
Walk the streets and spread the news
There's a party
Call my friends up on the telephone
Let's all get together and
We'll get it on now
Let's party
Shake it up tonight, ooh, ooh
Show you how to do it right, yeah
Shake it up tonight, ooh, ooh
Show you how to party right
I wanna show you how to party right
I wanna show you how to get down tonight
I wanna show you how to have some fun
I wanna show you how it can be done
