I wanta get into it, man, you know...
Like a, like a sex machine, man,
Movin'... doin' it, you know
Can I count it off? (Go anead)
One,two, three, four!!
Get up, get on up
Stay on the scene, like a sex machine
Wait a minute!
Shake your arm, then use your form
Stay on the scene like a sex machine
You got to have the feeling sure as you're born
Get it together right on, right on
Get up. get on up
I said the feeling you got to get
Give me the fever in a cold sweat
The way I like it is the way it is

Get on up and then shake your money maker
