[Intro: K-Ci]
(Check it out, y'all; check it out, y'all; check it, check it out, y'all)
Oh oh
(Check it, check it out, y'all)

[Verse 1: K-Ci]
Everybody grab somebody
Turn this mutha into a party
Fellas take a lady's hand
Ladies go and choose your man
There's no need to be afraid
Friday night, let's all get paid
Positive is the attitude
Negative is not the mood

[Chorus: Jodeci & K-Ci]
Get on up
(Get on up, get on up)
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
You gotta get on up now
(Let's say it again, come on)
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
Get on up
(Get on up now, oh)
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
You gotta get on up now
(You don't stop, you don't stop, keep on)
(Oh, ooh, ooh)
[Verse 2: JoJo]
Now that everybody's movin'
Everybody in here is groovin'
Everything is alright
The atmosphеre is so nice
The DJ is doin' his duty
All thе ladies shakin' their booty
And the night is still young
And the party's just beginning

[Chorus: Jodeci & K-Ci]
Get on up
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
And you can't sit down
You gotta get on up now
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
And you can't sit down
Get on up
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
And you can't sit down
You gotta get on up now
(You don't stop, you don't stop, keep on)
And you can't sit down
Get on up
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
And you can't sit down
You gotta get on up now
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
And you can't sit down
(Wave your hands in the air)
Get on up
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
(Come on, come on, come on)
And you can't sit down
You gotta get on up now
(You don't stop, you don't stop, check it out, y'all)
And you can't sit down
[Verse 3: Erick Sermon]
Yeah, uh-huh, yeah, check it
Word is bond, on my sworn testament
Party's on, throw on my dopest garments
Bernard who got my back so I'm safe
For me to do the Bankhead Bounce through the place (Word up)
Amaretto on the rocks
Def Squad spark the flame and put the weapons on safety lock
Recognize, the original funk doer
Funk maneuver, E. funk producer
I know they notice me, the E. loungin' with Jodeci
Yeah, pay attention closely (Word)
Eyes pop like black label tops
Let's blow the spot, the green room too hot
Wilin', shakin' my ass, Grand Marnier down to the last
Ice spillin' out the glass
Oops, don't be mad some got on your Versace
You can't knock me, after all, it's just a party

[Bridge: Jodeci, K-Ci, Erick Sermon]
Party
Party, party all day, baby
(Check it, check it out, y'all)
All day
Don't you never, never, never, never stop
Never stop
Oh oh, oh oh
Never stop
(Oh)
(Keep on, and you don't quit)
[Chorus: Jodeci & K-Ci]
Get on up
(Get on up, y'all)
(You don't stop, you don't stop, keep on)
And you can't sit down
You gotta get on up now
(Get up, now now, uh)
(You don't stop, you don't stop, keep on)
And you can't sit down
(Yeah yeah, wave your hands in the air)
Get on up
And you can't sit down
(Throw your hands in the air)
You gotta get on up now
(Throw your hands in the air, ah, ah, yeah yeah)
And you can't sit down
Get on up
(Ooh wee, ooh wee)
And you can't sit down
You gotta get on up now
(Check it, check it, check it out, y'all, you don't stop, keep on)
And you can't sit down
Get on up
(Check it, check it, check it out, y'all, you don't stop, keep on)
And you can't sit down
You gotta get on up now
(You don't stop, you don't stop, keep on)
And you can't sit down
Get on up
(Check it, check it, check it out, y'all, you don't stop, keep on)
And you can't sit down
You gotta get on up now
(Check it, check it, check it out, y'all, you don't stop, keep on)
And you can't sit down
