[Verse 1]
Don't let the silence space your mind
Make you start your thing on time
Snap your fingers and everything's fine
Look at our drummer keeping time
Sweet thang
[Chorus]
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
[Verse 2]
You might start with the boogaloo
Or you can do anything you want to do
You don't have to have a partner, you can dance by yourself
Or you might be better off if you dance with somebody else
[Chorus]
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
[Verse 3]
Said I'm gonna try to do it, ay now
Funky stomp for you right on time
Sweet thing
Talkin' 'bout a sweet thing, alright
[Verse 4]
Don't get hung up and move too fast
Slow down 'til you have time to make sure you last
If the floor's too crowded, just be still
Dance to unite, you know I will
[Chorus]
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
Ride the rhythm
[Verse 5]
Said I might try to boogaloo
Going through the air now, baby, just for you
Talkin' 'bout my sweet thing
Sock it to me, sweet thing, now
[Outro]
Talkin' 'bout my sweet thing, yeah
Talkin' 'bout that sweet thing
Oh
Oh, yeah
Sweet thing, sweet thing, uh, sweet thing
