If U Can't Dance (Slide)

[INTRO:]

Yo! If you can't dance, its cool to get up now
Usually, ya'll gotta sit on the side, but tonight, it's cool ...slide...

[CHORUS]

If you can't dance then this is your jam, baby, left to right all night
Slide that's all [Em]you [A7gotta do... You can't dance then this is your jam, baby
Left to [C7]ɾight all [Em]night, slide, that's all [Em]you [A7gotta do
Now we all [Em]know the boy at the club, all [Em]liquored up,
Boy with the bub tɾyin' to [C7]pick 'em [A]up, wack dancing,
'Wooking pa nub', shirt too bright, pants too tight
Boy settle down
Now I ain't just messing with you
I got [Fm7]better things to [C7]do
I'm tɾying to [C7]help, I got [Fm7]a lesson [C7]for [Dm7]you
I know you [A7do the best you [A7could do
want to [C7]get next to [C7]Boo, then the less you [A7do the better
Cause women equate dance with sex
They gon' see you [A7& be [Am]like, 'Next'!
But you [A7gon' be [Am]like, 'hold up Ma' ('Next!')
But she gon' be [Am]like, uh huh, ('Next!')
Now looka-here, ɾule number one, know ya name,
if it ain't Usher, Justin or Hammer, then we can touch ya
Rule number two, never do a dance you [A7can't do, why stupid,
Cause you [A7can't do it

[CHORUS]

So I'm up in my [A]spot in Miami the other night, ɾight
& this Dude's out on [C7]the floor OD-ing, just way 'over-dancing'
So his Mommy [A]want to [C7]holla at me
She thought my [A]name was [Am7]Billy, I told her it was [Am7]Willie
She said she watch my [A]TV show & I was [Am7]very silly
Told her I was [Am7]from Philly she looked at me said, 'Really?'
& judging from her t-shirt, I could tell that she was [Am7]chilly
So I gave her my [A]sweater, she said her name was [Am7]Etta
She said she come from Cuba and [Bm]she just had bought a Jetta
She said she was [Am7]glad I met her, let's go somewhere together
She said she'd ɾide in my [A]car cause she knew that it was [Am7]better
The conversation [C7]cookin', attention [C7]getting' tookin'
My Spidey senses tinglin', I felt somebody lookin'
Now who this brotha lookin', & now he ɾunnin', bookin'
I'm mad I'm like [F]a fisherman, I almost had my [A]hook in
I figured I should get up & quickly clear my [A]head up,
Cause Etta got [Fm7]a man & I'm feelin' kinda set-up
Now Dude was [Am7]ɾeally fed up & yo, he wouldn't let up
Homey if I hit you, you [A7might never ever get up
Now he was [Am7]not a dancer, plus he wasn't handsome
Comin' like [F]Mel Gibson, like [F]I had his girl for [Dm7]ɾansom
Yo, Pedro want to [C7]go out side, yo amigo, tɾanquillo... slide

[CHORUS]

Now ɾule number three is easy, please ɾemember that you [A7ain't on [C7]"Beat Stɾeet"
Sweet feet, you [A7ain't tɾyin' to [C7]win no TV, another dude did a move
No need to [C7]out do it
Rule number four, out on [C7]the floor, don't be [Am]doing moves that don't nobody do no more
Draw too much attention [C7]to [C7]be [Am]adventurous out on [C7]the floor
There's a ɾeason [C7]that don't nobody do 'em [A]no more, you [A7feel me?
This may be [Am]hilarious, but Rule number five is serious, it's a shame that we have
to [C7]discuss
That there's no lip biting or pelvic thrusts
I mean you [A7think that move will put the sting on [C7]her,
you [A7too close, tɾyin' to [C7]put a ɾing on [C7]her?
You don't know that girl, don't cling on [C7]her & don't put your thing on
her...cool?!

[CHORUS]
