[Intro]
I want everybody to get up off your seat
And get your arms together and your hands together
And give me some of that old soul
[Verse 1: Aretha Franklin]
I been workin' graveyard shifts eight days and no breaks
This ain't livin', somethin's missing
Friday night the weekend's here, it's right on time
I'm on a mission for somethin' different (Come on, come on)
Ain't no time to waste, girl, it's gettin' late
Let's show them what we can do
My work is done, the weekend's just for fun
Get out of your seat and let's move
[Chorus: John Legend & (Aretha Franklin)]
What y'all came to do? (What y'all came to do?)
Put on your dancin' shoes (Oh)
Yeah, we about to burn it up (We 'bout to burn it up)
Come on everybody burn it up (Everybody burn it up)
I ain't got nothin' to prove (Yeah)
Ain't got nothin' to lose (Nothin' to lose)
Yeah, we about to turn it up (We 'bout to turn it up)
Come on everybody turn it up (We gon' turn it up)
[Verse 2: Aretha Franklin]
I've been down and back and forth and side to side
Now you're groovin', let's keep it movin'
All around the world, let's get down tonight
You gotta use it before you lose it, hey hey
Don't forget to treat each day as if it were the last
Life's too short for the blues
Get your light to the fire
Get this party started right
It's time to break all of the rules
[Chorus: John Legend & (Aretha Franklin)]
What y'all came to do?
Put on your dancin' shoes (Hey)
Yeah, we about to burn it up
Come on everybody burn it up
I ain't got nothin' to prove (Yeah yeah)
Ain't got nothin' to lose
Yeah, we about to turn it up (Turn it up)
Come on everybody turn it up
[Bridge: Aretha Franklin & (John Legend)]
John, you've got a chance, get up and dance now
All you got to do is get up and move
[Chorus: John Legend & (Aretha Franklin)]
What y'all came to do? (What y'all came to do?)
Put on your dancin' shoes
Yeah, we about to burn it up (We 'bout to burn it up)
Come on everybody burn it up (Everybody burn it up)
I ain't got nothin' to prove
Ain't got nothin' to lose (Nothin' to lose)
Yeah, we about to turn it up (We 'bout to turn it up)
Come on everybody turn it up (We gon' turn it up)
What y'all came to do? (What y'all came to do?)
Put on your dancin' shoes (Yes, sir)
Yeah, we about to burn it up (We 'bout to burn it up)
Come on everybody burn it up (Everybody burn it up)
I ain't got nothin' to prove
Ain't got nothin' to lose (I ain't got nothin' to lose)
Yeah, we about to turn it up (We gon' turn it up)
Come on everybody turn it up (Turn it up, John, turn it up)
[Outro: Aretha Franklin & John Legend]
I'm feeling good, yeah
Oh yeah, it ain't all bad hanging out with you
Gotta hook up one more time
