Lyrics
[Intro: King Tim III] Alright y'all Here we go [Verse 1: King Tim III] You just clap your hands and you stomp your feet Cause you're listenin' to the sound of this jib jab beat I'm the K-I-N-G the T-I-M King Tim III and I am here Just me, Fatback, and the crew We doin' it all just for you We're strong as an ox and tall as a tree We can rock it so viciously We throw the highs in your eyes the bass in your face We're the funk machines that rock the human race Skate, down, boogie shot Come on girl let's do the rock Slam dunk do the jerk Let me see your body work To the break everybody (x2) Two, four, six, eight Fatback, don't you hesitate [Verse 2: Fatback Band] Party people Who like to groove Now the time To let your body move Do it to the rhythm And let it all hang out Don't be drivin' You got to show what you be about [Break: Fatback Band] Catch it, catch it, catch it, catch the beat Catch it, catch the beat (x2) Do it to me, and I'll do it you (x4) Catch it, catch it, catch the beat (x2) Do it to me, and I'll do it to you (say what?) Do it to me, and I'll do it to you [?] Do it to me, and I'll do it to you (hey, hey, hey) Do it to me [Break: King Tim III] To the break Just keep the same old beat [Verse 3: King Tim III] About a while ago when I want you to know Just who you been listenin' to I am the voice of King Tim III Tell you what I want you to do A little left hand right hand in the air And you sway 'em like you just don't care You put your leg out the right leg in Say the hustle is out and the rock is in 'Bout a quarter to four somebody was at your door And you wonder who it was And you start to shake and shiver So I said it was me your little old cous' I said to open the door, and let me in And I'll rock you so good you won't eat again I'll rock you so good you heard bells ring They went "a-ring, ding, dang, a-ding, a-ding, ding" Ring, ding, dang, a-ding, a-ding, ding To the break everybody [Break: Fatback Band] Do it to me, and I'll do it to you (come on) Do it to me, and I'll do it to you (what'cha gon' do now?) Do it to me, and I'll do it to you (give it to me) Do it to me, and I'll do it to you (alright) [Verse 4: King Tim III] Stomp your feet and you clap your hands Cause you're listenin' to the sound of the Fatback Band Ain't nothin' new in what I do Cause I'm doin' it all just for you I'm hotter than tea I'm sweeeter than honey I'm not doin' it for the money I'm sugarcoated, double dunked Chocolate MC Man I'm sweeter than the Alomond Joy In grandma's sweet old jam I'm the modified, the rectified [?] [?] To rock your mind [?] all the time To the break everybody (x2) It's on and on and on and on Like hot butter on say what some popcorn [Break: Fatback Band] Do it to me, and I'll do it to you (x16) [Verse 5: King Tim III (Over Break)] To the break everybody You either get in the step or get in your hop You don't stop 'til you get on the mountain top Once you reach the top you won't be alone You got King Tim on the microphone You just grab your partner you start to swing Cause I'm well known just like Burger King I don't sell burgers [?] and fries I'm only here to make your nature right Just grab your partner around and 'round Grab her by the butt and boogie down Just open up her jacket and open her bra And then just lay in the Mardi Gras I'm the man of action, the main attraction The girls call me the satisfaction I'm the Romeo, the cassanova Here tonight gonna get over To the break everybody (x4)
