You can holler, you can scream

But that ain't gon' get you what you need

Talkin' loud, saying nothing

Now that ain't what it takes

Like a man, he said to me

And it's something that I still believe

You'll never get what you want

Unless you learn how to make it shake

You're gonna make it shake

Make it shake

You gotta make it shake

Make it move to the groove

Till they feel it like an earthquake

What you want, what you need?

And all the rest of it in-between

To get it, you gotta make 'em shimmy till

They can't see straight

Find the beat, lay it down

Ain't it easy when you know how?

The whole wide world is waiting for you to make it shake

Make it shake, make it shake

Gotta make it shake

Make it move to the groove till

they feel it like an earthquake

Make it shake

Look at her in the front row

Came all this way just to see the show

So plug it in, turn it up

Too, too hot to make her wait

Don't know her name, never met her

But ain't nothing in this world feels better

Than knowing you got what it takes to make her shake

Make it shake

Oh, you gotta make it shake

Make it move to the groove till

they feel it like an earthquake

Make it shake, make it shake

Baby, shake it
