Teena Marie - Work It lyrics

It's not the way that you comb
Your hair to the left side, sugar
It's not the way that you keep the
Beat on or off your feet
No mention when we get real close
How my body gets weak and I'm about to smoke
Do-wa, do-wa, do-wa

All these things that I feel
If you'd only come real
At this moment in time
Right here, right now, you'd be mine
Work it, work it baby, baby can you work?
Can you work it like a 9 to 5, child?
Work it, I'm talking overtime
Baby, can you work it?
Can you work the night shift?

It's not the way that you talk
That stuff to my left ear, honey
It's not the way that you take a
Chance when you do your dance
No mention you be on the scene
And you drive my car and you gangster lean
Do-wa, do-wa, do-wa

All these things that I feel
If you only come real at this moment in time
Right here, right now, you'd be mine

Work it, work it baby, baby can you work?
Can you work it love child?
Work it, I'm talking overtime
Baby, can you work it, work it?
Can you work the night shift, child?

It's not the way that you're right by my side
Or the way that you smooth out the ride
It's not the way that you keep the
Beat on or off your feet
It's not the way that you always come through
When you know what to do for my high
It's not the way you break the law
When you do-wa-wa
Work it, can you work it love child?
Work it, can you work overtime, all right?
Work it, can you work it like a 9 to 5
Child? Work it, baby can you work it?
Work it, work it baby
