Salt‐N‐Pepa - I Like to Party Lyrics

Let's kick it like this ah yeah

We gotta kick it like this ah yeah

We need to kick it like this ah yeah

We gonna kick it like this ah yeah

[And let me tell ya girl I'm a party animal see?

Word and I need a man that can hang with this thing

You know what I'm sayin'?

Oooo child I know what you're sayin'

Hey ladies! I said homegirls!

We've been goin' for the dog doo

It's gettin' to be a real drag around here, you know what I'm sayin'?

A woman can't do nothin' no more, man

We've got to let the fellas know what they can do for us]

As the smoke clears you can hear

And the ringing in your ears just disappears

Your body's soft, but you still want more

You might end up as a casualty on the dance floor

I'm an addict, strung out on dopeness

But you can't chew, sniff, or smoke this

If you want to get high step by the speaker

And overdose on somethin' sweeter

Do you suffer from migranes or other pains

That's caused by stress and strain? Brother, refrain

You came to the right place to get your head straight

The cure's for sure, the beat's the bait

I won't wait for the crowd to get loud or rowdy

I enjoy my life 'cause I like to party

CHORUS

I like to party, night and day

I like to party in every way

I like to party, I can't stop

I like to party till I drop

(Repeat)

We're steppin' on the case, watch your face

Don't like the pace then leave the place

It's Ladies Night, yeah, and we hype

Heels, shirt, tights, and a mic

Like three the hard way we're doin' it our way

Rollin' and gettin' funky like Kid 'N Play

See her over there behind the phonograph

She's a psychopath, I make the breaks last

A Salt and Pepa parade this is

So march on the dance floor with his

Arms wrapped real tight around your body

And you'll understand why

CHORUS

[Make it funky, Pep]

Oh, I feel hot then again why not

This ain't pop, it's hip-hop

And got a lot to rock to, dip and dop to

You don't have to, but you probably want to

It makes you laugh because it's really fun to

Twist your tongue and exercise your lungs to

Tonight on the mic we're showing

We're strong enough for a man, but made for a woman

Hey you! Where do you think you're goin'?

Yo, Stan, my man, keep the horns blowin'

Havin' a good time ain't no crime

When the joint is jumpin' and people are dancin'

Everyone does it, now it's no sin

Yo, I just did it, and I'm ready to do it again and again and again

CHORUS

[Wait a minute...

Now I think it's time we give the drummer

Some of this funky groove we got here

You ain't got to throw no solo in, brother

Just keep what ya got

Yo, turn it loose 'cause it's a mutha

Now when I count to four I want y'all to chill

And let the drummer get ill

And when I count to four I want y'all to come back in once more]

It's in my feet, feels so sweet

Said it's in my feet, feels so sweet

It's in my shake, oooo, but it work me to death

Said it's in my shake, but it work me to death

I want the floor, I want to rock the floor

c'mon, y'all - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - hit it!

(drum solo)

[Ain't it good to ya?

Uh, ain't it good to ya?]
