By the midnight hour Lay it down, lay it down Lookin' 'round for a feelin' I love the rhythm and blues The place was rockin' and reelin' I thought I'd shake me loose The band was pumpin' Motown Lord how they could play The girls a-started singing

Some girls they act retarded Bumpin' and grindin' that pole We 'bout to have a party (turn the music up) Let's get it started (Go head shake your butt) I'm lookin' for a girl with a body and a sexy strut Wanna get it poppin' baby step right up Some girls

Lay it down, let it go, fall in love Lay it down, lay it down, lay it down Hey lay it down Put your head on the floor I just met you, just the other day Everything started flowing my way I just love you, really I just love you for yourself I don't want

We're gonna have a good time It's gonna be a big night It's gonna be a big big big big big big night Started (hey!) We gonna party like it's the end of the world I need a pick me up Round round round

This is what we started Never be, never be us They can't hold us down They'll never be, never be us Remember when we were young Breakin' every rule they made I'll never change what we've done It made us who we are today I takin' every chance I get To

Don't panic, don't panic We just getting started nigga don't panic Shawty fell in love with a hustler Man I took her from a buster Niggas keep talkin' like they know something I slide on your bitch like she hol' something Real niggas getting cake Watch

I think I drank three much I been mixin' wit' it too Couple women comin' through They gon' wanna' T up wit' me too Bitch I'm T'd up Tanqueray got me started I think I need a girl from Harlem Don't act like you Don't wanna' get involved with me

And I don't even know his last name My momma would be so ashamed It started off "hey cutie, where you from?" And then it turned into "oh no! what have I done?" And I don't even know my last name Last night, I got served, a little bit too much of that

Look what we started, baby 'Cause all I ever wanted was some fun I never meant to fall in love I never meant to fall in lo-ove No, I can't stop now You're not what I expected Used to look for exits Cheyenne, Cheyenne I just can't stop thinking 'bout you

When freedom burns The final solution Dreams fade away and all hope turns to dust When millions burn The curtain has fallen Lost to the world as they perish in flames Ever since it started On Crystal night of thirty eight When liberty died
