70s Disco classic of the day: "Put Your Body In It" by Stephanie Mills (1979)


"Put Your Body In It"
(written by Howard King and Edward Moore)

Put your body in it
Put your body in it


It's a shame,you waited all night long to dance
who's to blame,when I'm givin' you another chance
This is is,get on up and be yourself (free yourself)
only you've got the key,there's no one else

Don't be afraid,no
I'm waiting just for you
and if it takes you all night long
I'll see you through

Put your body in it (dancin)
keep on dancin
you can do it
non-stop now (move your body)

Watchin' you,I know you can get to it
cause when it's hot,ooh,there's nothin' to it
Give it up,dancin is the only way (only way)
don't let it stop,feelin' better everyday

Don't be afraid,no
I'm waiting just for you
and if it takes you all night long
I'll see you through

Put your body in it (dancin)
Put your body in it


dancin'
dancin'

Keep on dancin
you can do it
it's non-stop now

Oh I just love this. She's a severely underrated singer, ever so distinctive.

One of my favorite Stephanie Mills songs, second only to "Pilot Error".
