Baby when the band is playing and that solid beat O, make you wanna move, make you wanna groove make you wanna pat your feet Don't fight it, don't fight, feel it
No, now when we dance close together with your cheeck close to mine and you begin to feel, a funny little thrill moving up your spine Don't fight it, don't fight, feel it
Baby, when the swinging music, makes you wanna flip Don't be in pain, trying to restrain go ahead and move your hips
Baby when you're dancing near me and I feel I wanna tease And when I do, the feeling gets you when you feel you wanna squeeze Don't fight it, don't fight, feel it feel it (many times)
Baby, when the swinging music, makes you wanna flip Don't be in pain, trying to restrain go ahead and move your hips Baby when you're dancing near me and I feel I wanna tease And when I do, the feeling gets you when you feel you wanna squeeze Don't fight it, don't fight, feel it
