Let's Get Down
Tony Toni Tone' feat. DJ Quik Lyrics

Yes
Introducing the artist

Tony Toni Tone
Artist name

And DJ Quick
Featuring DJ Quik

You didn't think we could flip it on yo ass, huh?
Surprising the listener with the ability to deliver an excellent performance

Something for the dance floor
Offering a song to get people dancing

In a real way
Authentic and genuine

It's going down like this forever
The experience will always be memorable

And a day
For eternity

Now what you hear is not a drag
This song is not boring or uneventful

Cause Mr. DJ Quik got a brand new bag
DJ Quik has a fresh style and excellent skills

But first I gotta bang bang
Starting with a beat

A boogie for the boogie
A danceable groove

To the rhythm of the ghettoey streets
Inspiration from the streets

Check it out now
Listen and be amazed

You trying to give me some Eight Ball
Offering a drug called Eight Ball

But no way
Refusing the offer

I'd rather have a Mimosa
Choosing a different drink

With Crystal and O.J., yeah
Adding specific ingredients to the Mimosa

Just a little something bubbly and tingly
Describing the desired sensation

To have me walking around naked
Intensifying the effect of the drink

But wait a second
Pausing to change topic

The function's on
The party has started

Around midnight
Time of the party

What time is it
Questioning the current time

Are you inside
Asking if the listener is at the party

Available
Asking if the listener is free to come and party

To come and play
Invitation to join the party

Give me a clue
Request for information

So I don't have to
In order to avoid searching

Look for you
If the answer is no

Come on let's get down, let's get down, let's get down
Encouraging to dance

Come on let's get down, in my black Chevrolet
Suggesting a car ride to continue the party

Yeah, now we don't need a club
Explaining the change of venue

We can do it at my house
Hosting the party at home

My front door's open so homey's can bust it out
Inviting people to come over

And ladies if you're coming leave your children at the nursery
Clarifying rules for parents and kids

So you can get slow on the anniversary
Enjoying a slow, festive mood

Kill me
An expression of excitement

I dip dip da
A dance move

So don't be looking stupid when I unfasten your bra
An explicit message to a listener

You know you want to mack this
Confidently flirting

Because I come stronger than the IRS
Assuming a position of power

Whenever you done got delinquent on your taxes
A metaphor for being in trouble

Now here I am
Narrating the situation

Staring at you
Addressing a specific listener

I need a drink
Personal need for a drink

You need one too
Suggesting someone should drink

Who is your friend
Asking about someone's companion

She don't look nice
Validating the listener's choice

But I know she will
Being optimistic about the possibility

Later on tonight
Speculating about a future event

Yeah, now we don't need a club
Repeating the refrain

In my black Chevrolet
Bringing up the car again

I gotta get my groove on (keep movin' and groovin', movin' and groovin')
Energizing the crowd to keep dancing

I gotta get my groove on (keep shakin' that ass, shakin' that ass)
Speaking to listeners who are dancing provocatively

I'm groovin' (say what?)
Feeling the music

Movin' (yeah)
Dancing

Come on let's get down, let's get down, let's get down
Final suggestion to keep dancing

Come on let's get down, let's get down
Repeat of the refrain
