“Back and Forth” was the debut single from late teen R&B sensation Aaliyah. The bass-heavy midtempo song featured unison female background vocals and rapped male chants that combined for a singalong-ready single. Its smooth and easy R&B sound became synonymous with summertime and 90’s party...
[Intro: R. Kelly & Aaliyah]
Let me see you go back (Move, it's the L-I-Y-A-H)
Let me see you come forth
Now let me see you go back (Move, it's the L-I-Y-A-H)
Let me see you come forth
Uh, let me see you go back (Move, it's the L-I-Y-A-H)
Let me see you come forth
Uh, let me see you go back (Move, it's the L-I-Y-A-H)
Let me see you come forth, yeah
[Verse 1: Aaliyah]
It's Friday and I'm ready to swing
Pick up my girls and hit the party scene
Tonight, oh, it's alright, mmm
So get up and let this funky mellow groove
Get you in the mood
'Cause you know it's alright
[Pre-Chorus: Aaliyah]
So Mr. DJ, keep the music grooving (Keep on grooving)
Don't stop moving (Don't stop moving)
Let me see you, let me see you go
[Chorus: Aaliyah & (R. Kelly)]

[Verse 2: Aaliyah]
Now's the time for you to make your move to the dance floor
So throw your hands in the air
And wave 'em around like you just don't care, yeah
Who is the L-I-Y-A-H?
Ripping up the stage
I got jazz personality, G mentality, beats the Soul Train
[Pre-Chorus: Aaliyah]
So Mr. DJ, keep the music grooving (Keep on grooving)
Don't stop moving
Now let me see you go back and forth
Back and forth, yeah

And let me see you go
[Bridge: R. Kelly & Aaliyah]
Hey, here’s the formality
Get upon the floor, you see
Show your personality, be who you wanna be, tell me
See, can you feel the groove moving when I'm with you?
Hey, I wanna keep this party going on all night
[Pre-Chorus: Aaliyah]
So Mr. DJ, keep the music grooving (Keep on grooving)
Don't stop movin' (Don't stop movin')
Now let me see you go back and forth
Back and forth
[Chorus until fade: Aaliyah]

Back, back, forth, and forth

Go back, back, forth, and forth
(Let me see you back and forth, now check it)
Go back, back, forth, and forth
(Let me see you back and forth, now check it)
Bring it back, thinking forth
Alright

Back, back, forth, and forth
(Let me see you back and forth, now check it)
Back, back, forth, and forth
(Let me see you back and forth, now check it)
