Slippin' on my dancin' shoes cuz I'm a lady of the eighties
 It's Friday night  I just got paid  my house is pumpin'
 Or listenin' to my Hammer tape  while my sound system is dumpin'
 Picked up my girl Salty  she was waitin' on the porch
 I shared my fly  fly Mercedes  yo  lit the highway like a torch
 On the way to pick up Spindy we raced with a 1 9 D
 He was a sucker duck if he thought he could buck with us in E
 The party started

 CHORUS
 Let's get this party started
 Let's get this party started right

 Rolled up at the party, saw a fella black and fine
 Bow-legged, high-top fade, then I said, "Yo, that one's mine"
 Stepped out of the ride, told the bouncer, "Hold my Benzy"
 Heard the bass, it was the place so I slipped my man a penny
 When we walked in the jam fans met us at the door
 They yelled, "We love you Salt and Pepa!" "Yes, we love y'all even more!"
 Some foul, wack, nappy bitty tried to step to Spinderella
 I was cool, I made my move, then I droppped her like a fella
 Start the party, boy

 CHORUS

 Now this is what you call a hip-hop beat from S and P
 So get out on the dancefloor, and don't even rough with me
 I ain't goin' for it, I ain't buyin' it so don't even try me
 Dance sucker, Mother Tucker can, that old lady gets busy
 Yeah, I don't give a damn, Salty is who I am
 And man, I'm gonna slam this jam, you understand?
 Yes, we will stay the queens no matter what the means
 The party started, let's get retarded, now work them bluejeans
 Rock the party, y'all

 CHORUS

 [Yo, Salt, you wanna continue the story?]
 Yes, I told the people move, he made a move
 To the stage and grabbed the mic
 From these stank, sorry, frauds - Run D.M.C. look-alikes
 Spinderella took the set, made her fingers nice and wet
 And you bet she made that DJ sweat, and he won't soon forget
 Pepa took on the speaker, bust an oh, so funky rhyme
 I did a step right on time and made the crowd lose their minds
 The whole place was on the floor, we was rockin' hardcore-core
 We left them wantin' more, and we headed out the door
 We rocked the party

 CHORUS
