Yo pretty ladies around the world

Got a weird thing to show you

So tell all the boys and girls

Tell your brother, your sister and your mamma too

cause We're about to go down

And you know just what to do

Wave your hands in the air like you don't care

Glide by the people as they start to look and stare

Do your dance, do your dance, do your dance quick mamma

Come on baby tell me what's the word

A Word up (up up) everybody say

When you hear the call you've got to get it under way

Word up (up up) it's the code word

No matter where you say it you know that you'll be heard

Now all you sucker DJs who think you're fly

There's got to be a reason and we know the reason why

You try to put on those airs and act real cool

But you got to realize that you're acting like a fool

if it's a music, we can use it

Lt's free to dance

We don't have the time for psychological romance

No romance, no romance, no romance for me mamma

Come on baby tell me what's the word

A Word up (up up) everybody say

When you hear the call you've got to get it under way

All , all yell for yawl

Ahhh

Mama all your people say

W - O - R - D, up

W - O - R - D, up

W - O - R - D, up

W - O - R - D, up hey!

W - O - R - D, up hey hey

W - O - R - D, up

hey.... hey hey na na na na na na

everybody don't know just how much I say

word up awl they can't stay yawl

hit it, hit it , hit it , hit it....
