Sworn to Groove
I'm sworn...
To groove.
And to pat my feet.
To a beat repeating.
Sworn to groove.
And to funk!
To stomp with a-jumpin'.
I'm...
Ssssworn to groove.
And to sweat in heat...
Releasing fever deep.
That's got me rockin'
To get out-of-my-seat!
Oh...
Sworn to groove.
Feel the rhythm meant,
Not-for-skimpy-limpers'!
Or for wimps,
Who can not be convinced...
To move.
I'm
Ssssworn to groove.
Oh oh
And everyday,
I anticipate it.
Not a moment...
Do-I-waste.
Or contemplate a milli-second,
Sitting back to wait.
And I see people...
Keep their booties up to pace.
Hoping what their mamas gave them,
Doesn't ache to break.
Oh...
Sworn to groove.
Feel the rhythm meant,
That's not-for-skimpy-limpers'!
And to sweat in heat...
Releasing fever deep.
And to pat my feet.
To a beat repeating.
I've been ssssworn to groove.
Oh oh!
