[ Everlast ] I'm Everlast, born to be a Caucasian But it makes no difference what persuasion You are, as long as you know how to get up Get on the floor and start working a sweat up To a musical measure that makes you move Soon as the needle's dropped into the groove So get up and dance to the gift I'm givin Forget all your troubles, get into the rhythm
