Kick It Live by Sugarhill Gang Lyrics
[Intro: horns and clapping]
We're jammin to the beat
Gotcha comin' in from out the streets
Let's cram the jam with the homeboy
And the fly girls lookin' sweet
Cause we can party from 9 to 5
Doesn't matter when you arrive
Aye, as long as when you come
You'll have some fun
And kick it live
So everybody just clap ya hands
Whoo! Hey girl, you better grab a man
You can bet your last dime
It's party time
So everybody get up
And get up and jam!
So if ya wanna get down (come on!)
Let's go to a party
Where the ladies (come out!)
To show off their bodies
Where the men (come in!)
They try to get loose
To show who's got the juice
Well I'm down (come on!)
It sounds like fun
Well I'm down (come on!)
We gonna rock some (huh!)
I'm down (come on!) You know I am
(Why?) We like to jam!
Well I'm Big Bank Hank, the fo-sho' shot
Nothin' I like better than hittin' the spot
At a high-powered party we rollerjam
(You comin'?) You know I am!
Hey, well I'm Master Gee, the ladies know
Darn well, that I turn out the show
But it wouldn't be a party without you there
To class up the whole affair
And of course they call me Wonder Mike
And if you can't hang, then take a hike
Get movin' to the groove, and it's alright
Cause ain't nothin' like a party night
Ah, forget your 9 to 5, and come alive
Forget about Uncle Sam
Don't worry about a tax, it's time to relax
Everybody get up, and get up, and jam!
If ya wanna get down (come on!)
Let's go to a party
Where the ladies (come out!)
To show off their bodies
Where the men (come in!)
They try to get loose
To show who's got the juice
Well I'm down (come on!)
It sounds like fun
Well I'm down (come on!)
We gonna rock some (huh!)
I'm down (come on!) You know I am
(Why?) We like to jam!
We're breakin' hard, so let me tell you this
It's just the kind of party you shouldn't miss
So come on down, and you'll be glad you came
And we'll feel the same
Cause you can dance all night if the beat is tough
So girls get ready to strut yo stuff
And when it's time to go, well then you'll say "no!
We didn't do enough!"
Y'all turned it out and we did too
But that's not enough cause we're not through
We forgot to scream and so did you
So here's what we want y'all to do
Clap, while we rap (hey!)
And cheer, while we're here (come on!)
Fly guys, fly girls, fly girls, homeboys
Everybody in the place, let's make some noise!
[record scratching, breakdown]
We're jammin' to the beat
Gotcha comin' in from out the streets
Let's cram the jam with the homeboy
And the fly girls lookin' sweet
Cause we can party from 9 to 5
It doesn't matter when you arrive
Aye, as long as when you come, you'll have some fun
And kick it live
So everybody just clap ya hands
Hey girl, you better grab a man
You can bet your last dime it's party time
So everybody get up, and get up, and jam!
Ow, whoo!
Got a lotta mo, lotta mo, come on
Get down with it (whoo!)
[bridge]
If ya wanna get down (come on!)
Let's go to a party
Where the ladies (come out!)
To show off their bodies
Where the men (come in!)
They try to get loose
And show who's got the juice
(Hey!) Well I'm down (come on!)
It sounds like fun
Well I'm down (come on!)
We gonna rock some (huh!)
I'm down (come on!) you know I am
(Why?) We like to jam!
[chants in background]
Who's got the juice?
Who's got the juice?
Who's got the juice?
Who's got the juice?
Get funky wit it
S-U-G-A-R-H-I-double L
We go by the name of the Sugarhill Gang
And that's how it's spelled
Cause we party from 9 to 5
It doesn't matter when you arrive
As long as when you come, you'll have some fun
And kick it live
Vicious Lee, what you got for Gee?
