Break a Sweat Lyrics by Gretchen and the Pickpockets

Gretchen and the Pickpockets (LP)

2014

[Verse 1]
Now, see
Boy you, you've got them shoes
And it's lookin' like they want to move
But see, your back is on the wall
And I'm wonderin' why you gave me a call
[Pre-Chorus]
I know you wanna leave, but you're callin' my name
And I ain't done just yet
[Chorus]
Oh, you better break a sweat
(Oo, break a sweat)
And baby, get on down
(Get down, come on, get on down)
Feel the rhythm in your hips
(Oo, break a sweat)
And baby, move it around
(Get down, come on, get on down)
[Verse 2]
Now, baby, why?
Why you've got your coat?
And why you lookin' right at that door?
But see, that seat is no place to be
Oh, when you should be here shakin' with me
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm-a groovin' high, smokin' likе a cigarette
And I ain't done just yеt
[Chorus]
Oh, you better break a sweat
(Oo, break a sweat)
And baby, get on down
(Get down, come on, get on down)
Feel the rhythm in your hips
(Oo, break a sweat)
And honey, move it around
(Get down, come on, get on down)
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, why you wanna come around if you don't dance with me?
I will be so sad if you get up and leave
Because you know what I wanna see
[Chorus]
Oh, I wanna see you sweat
(Oo, break a sweat)
And baby, get on down
(Get down, come on, get on down)
Feel the rhythm in your hips
(Oo, break a sweat)
And baby, move it around
(Get down, come on, get on down)
[Pre-Chorus]
Baby, why you wanna come around if you don't dance with me?
Baby, I will be so sad if you get up and leave
Because you know what I wanna see
[Chorus]
Oh, I wanna see you sweat
(Oo, break a sweat)
And honey, get on down
(Get down, come on, get on down)
Feel the rhythm in your hips
(Oo, break a sweat)
And baby, move it around
(Get down, come on, get on down)
