Loosen them shoulders up
Pour it up, let's work

Aye, now you got it baby.
You tryna have some fun tonight,

simple instructions, you ready?

You need activate your sexy

Now lean with it (lean),
throw a lil sheen in it (sheen)
Then pat, pat, pat 'til it's flat

Throw some perm on your attitude
Girl you gotta relax, ooh
Let me show you what you got to do
You gotta lay it back
Matter of fact? Band,
show her how to lay it back!
Show her how to lay it back
Show her how to lay it back
Show her how to lay it back
Alright!
