[Verse 1: Nathan & (Shawn)]
Been working hard every day (9 to 5)
I need a place to get away
(Where I can feel alive)
Seems like my drama, it won't ever cease
(I had to stay away)
Now it's time to find my inner peace
(I'm coming out to play)

[Pre-Chorus: Shawn]
This will be my night
I will get up on this floor
And lose what's left of my mind
Let the rhythm take control

[Chorus]
Step on up, let your body go
'Cause I know you wanna do it so
When you hear the groove
You've gotta know
That it's time to make your move
Just step on up now

[Verse 2: Nathan & (Shawn)]
This party's got me feeling right, yeah
(I found a place to unwind, oh yeah)
I'm thinking 'bout myself tonight
(Relax and ease your mind)
Ain't holdin' back, I'm gonna let it go, yeah yeah
(Throw all my cares away, yeah yeah)
Now I'll be sure to let my feelings flow
(I'm coming out to play)

[Pre-Chorus: Wanya]
This will be my night, yeah
I'ma get up on this floor
And lose the last of my mind
Let the rhythm take control

[Chorus]
Step on up, let your body go
'Cause I know you wanna do it so
When you hear the groove
You've gotta know
That it's time to make your move
Just step on up now
Step on up, let your body go
'Cause I know you wanna do it so
When you hear the groove
You've gotta know
That it's time to make your move
Just step on up now

[Bridge]
And you won't turn away
Gotta get on the floor
Let's go, before it's too late
Keep it movin' all night long

[Break]

[Chorus]
Step on up, let your body go
'Cause I know you wanna do it so
When you hear the groove
You've gotta know
That it's time to make your move
Just step on up now
Step on up, let your body go
'Cause I know you wanna do it so
When you hear the groove
You've gotta know
That it's time to make your move
Just step on up now
Step on up, let your body go
'Cause I know you wanna do it so
When you hear the groove
You've gotta know
That it's time to make your move
Just step on up now
Step on up, let your body go
'Cause I know you wanna do it so
When you hear the groove
You've gotta know
That it's time to make your move
Just step on up now
Step on up, let your body go
'Cause I know you wanna do it so
When you hear the groove
You've gotta know
That it's time to make your move
Just step on up now

Boyz II Men

Boyz II Men is an R&B vocal quartet from Philadelphia who became the most successful pop group of the 1990s. They’re best known for their passionate ballads, including the number one hits “End of The Road,” “On Bended Knee,” and “I’ll Make Love To You.”

An early version of the group was founded by Nathan Morris in the mid 1980s while attending the Philadelphia High School for the Creative and Performing Arts, where he recruited students Wanya Morris, Shawn Stockman, and Michael McCary. Singer Marc Nelson was also an early member, but left the group before their big break.

The group—who took its name from New Edition’s song “Boys To Men”—was discovered in 1988 after auditioning for New Edition’s Michael Bivins backstage at a concert. Bivins signed the group to his management company and secured them a contract with Motown Records.
