Electric Slide [Boogie Woogie Woogie]

Electric Slide
Marcia Griffiths Lyrics

You can't see it
It's electric!
You gotta feel it
It's electric!
Ooh, it's shakin'
It's electric!

You gotta know it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie!
Now you can't hold it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie!
But you know it's there,
Yeah here there everywhere

I've got to move,
I'm going on a party ride
I've got to groove, groove, groove,
And from this music I just can't hide.

Are you comin' with me?
Come let me take you on a party ride
And I'll teach you, teach you, teach you
I'll teach you the electric slide

Some say it's mystic
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
You can't resist it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
You can't do without it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
Jiggle-a-mesa-cara she's a pumpin' like a matic
She's movin' like electric
She sure got the boogie

Don't wanna lose it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
But you can't choose it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
But you know it's there,
Yeah here there everywhere

I've got to move,
Come let me take you on a party ride
And I'll teach you, teach you, teach you
I'll teach you the electric slide

Some say it's mystic
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
You can't resist it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
You can't do without it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
Jiggle-a-mesa-cara she's a pumpin' like a matic
She's movin' like electric
She sure got the boogie

Don't wanna lose it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie
But you can't choose it
It's electric
Boogie woogie, woogie

But you know it's there,
Yeah here there everywhere

The lyrics of "Electric Slide" by Marcia Griffiths talk about the energy and excitement that music can bring to a party. The song describes the elusive and intangible nature of that energy, referring to it as "electric" and suggesting that it can't be seen, only felt. The lyrics encourage listeners to let loose and dance to the music, using the iconic "electric slide" dance as a metaphor for the experience of being swept up in the rhythm and movement of the music. The lyrics suggest that this type of experience is transcendental and beyond explanation, with lines like "Some say it's mystic, it's electric."

Overall, "Electric Slide" can be seen as a celebration of the power of music to bring people together and create a shared experience of joy and excitement. The lyrics encourage listeners to get up and dance without worrying about being judged or held back. By using the metaphor of the "electric slide," the song suggests that this feeling of connection and abandon can be experienced by anyone who is willing to let go and let the music move them.

It's Electric!
The energy is palpable and undeniable

You can't see it
The energy is intangible and can't be physically seen

You gotta feel it
The energy can only be truly experienced through physical sensation

It's electric!
The energy is intense and electrifying

Ooh, it's shakin'
The energy is causing physical movement and vibrations

Jiggle-a-mesa-cara
An exclamation to describe the rhythm and energy of the music

She's a pumpin' like a matic
Reference to the rhythmic pumping of the dancer's body

She's a movin' like electric
The dancer's movement is electric and energetic

She sure got the boogie
The dancer is skilled and enthusiastic about dancing

You gotta know it
The energy is contagious and everyone should be aware of it

Boogie woogie, woogie!
An exclamation to describe the joyful, rhythmical energy

Now you can't hold it
The energy is too strong to resist or contain

But you know it's there,
The energy is universally present and recognizable

Yeah here there everywhere
The energy can be found in all places and situations

I've got to move,
The singer is compelled to dance and move with the energy

I'm going on a party ride
The singer is inviting others to dance and join in on the party atmosphere

And from this music I just can't hide.
The energy of the music is too strong to ignore or resist

Are you comin' with me?
The singer is encouraging others to dance and enjoy the energy with them

Come let me take you on a party ride
The singer is inviting others to join in the fun and energy of the party

And I'll teach you, teach you, teach you
Reference to the electric slide dance and the singer's willingness to teach it to others

Some say it's mystic
The energy is described as mysterious and otherworldly

You can't resist it
The energy is too strong to resist or ignore

You can't do without it
The energy is essential and necessary for a lively party atmosphere

Don't wanna lose it
The singer doesn't want the energy and party atmosphere to end

But you can't choose it
The energy is uncontrollable and happens naturally
