Lyrics
(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Beat is gettin' stronger
Beat is gettin' longer too-oo-oo
Music's soundin' good to me
But I want to, said I want to

I want to take you higher
Yeah, let me take you higher
Baby, baby, let me light your fire
Ooo yeah, little bit higher

Boom-shaka-laka-laka
Boom-shaka-la-boonka-boo

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Beat is nitty-gritty
Music's in your city too-oo-oo
Music's gettin' good to me
But now don't ya, I said don't ya

Don't ya want to get higher
Yeah, don't ya want to get higher
Baby, baby, let me light your fire
Ooo ha, little bit higher

Boom-shaka-laka-laka
Boom-shaka-la-boonka-boo

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

------ guitar ------

Come on baby (higher!)
Don't ya want to get high (higher!)
Ooo yeah! (higher!)

Come on daddy (higher!)
A little bit higher (higher!)
I want to (higher!)

Boom-shaka-laka-laka

(Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!)

Beat is here to make you mo-ove
Music's here to help ya groo-oo-oove
Music's soundin' good to me
But take your places

I'm gonna take you higher (higher!)
Yeah, baby (higher!)
Gonna take ya higher (higher!)
Ooo yeah (higher!)
Little bit higher (higher!)

A little bit (higher!)
