Get down
If you wanna get up, get down
If you wanna get up, get down

Everybody's got to know
If you wanna get up
You know you gotta get low
Everybody all around
If you wanna get up
You know you gotta get down

Hey, what's up
Now do you wanna get goin'?
I can see you movin' up just fine
But when you're there
Don't you ever forget all who's been behind you all the time

There's a need to play
There's a time to pray
There ain't nothing wrong why you should do it every day
It's for everyone out to have some fun
What we all need to know is that the only way to get up is to get down
Everybody get down
Everybody get down
Get down
Get down
Get down
You know the only way to get up is if you get down
Everybody get down
Everybody get down

Hey, there's nothing wrong if you wanna go on
I know it's your desire, we wanna make it strong
But when the going gets to rough and when you wanna give up
There may be something that you know you gotta do

There's a need to play
There's a time to pray
There ain't nothing wrong why you should do it every day
It's for everyone out to have some fun
What we all need to know is that the only way to get up is to get down
Everybody get down
Everybody get down
Get down
Get down
Get down
You know the only way to get up is if you get down
Everybody get down
Everybody get down

Everybody's got to know
If you wanna get up
You know you gotta get low
Everybody all around
If you wanna get up
You gotta first get down
