  sözleri:
  
  how’s about your company this evening
  uh, would you say that you are free
  take you out somewhere really special
  uh, won’t you come alone with me
  
  from what i’ve heard then say
  the music that they play
  is nothing like you ever heard before
  once you get through dancin’
  you can stop your feet
  ‘cause the rhythm keeps in time, what you say
  
  are you ready or not
  it’s only up the street
  everybody’s dancin’
  everybody’s on the beat
  
  i’m-a beggin’ you now
  it’s where we both can be
  everybody’s dancin’
  everybody’s on the beat
