Skank Up (Oh Lawd) lyrics

[Intro: Sting]
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord
Do the skank-up beat, yeah

[Verse 1: Shaggy]
Mi have a bad ras groove bumping in my jeep
We wake di whole place up, mek nobody can't sleep
Gal, you fi shake dat ass, get up and move your feet

[Refrain: Shaggy & Sting]
We make you stop, do the skank-up beat, yeah

[Verse 2: Shaggy]
So, burn the dance floor out because the drinks on me
Let's get these cups poured up, mi like your energy
And now I'm all f*cked-up, singing sh*t off-key

[Refrain: Shaggy & Sting]
We make you stop, do the skank-up beat, yeah

[Bridge 1: Shaggy]
Gal a-move, gal a-shake, gal a-whine, gal a-bubble pon time, yeah, di man, dem say, "Hey"
When the music a play and di vibes set away, lighters make noise for the dee-jay
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, bawl out, forward for di replay, hey, hey, hey

[Verse 3: Shaggy]
Come catch the island vibe, make you feel so free
The curry goat, well nice with some rice and peas
It's like early Christmas, come mek we light dem trees
[Refrain: Shaggy & Sting]
We make you stop, do the skank-up beat, yeah

[Bridge 2: Shaggy]
Gal a-move, gal a-shake, gal a-whine, gal a-bubble pon time, yeah, di man, dem say, "Hey"
When the music a play and di vibes set away, lighters make noise for the dee-jay
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, bawl out, forward for di replay, hey, hey, hey

[Verse 4: Ding Dong]
When dancehall music a-play, everybody fi dance and ah move it, move it
