Went down to the park
Everything was dark, oh, yeah, yeah, all of a sudden

And everything was feeling right

The people started dancing
They call me over to join in
They said, "JT, don't ya feel good, man?"
Come on and join the reggae jam, I heard them singin'

Ooh, la, la, la (Hey, hey, day)

Come on let's reggae down, oh, yeah, yeah
Get better acquainted
So that everything will be fine, hey, lady, listen

Hey, baby, what's your name?
Is it a Misses or is it miss, eh
If you're by yourself I'd like to take you for a ride
We could check the scene and reggae down, and we'll be singin'

Ooh, la, la, la (Woo)
