[Verse 1]
Are you ready for a real good time?
Are you ready for a real good treat?
There'll be so much dancing, singing
I let you fall into me

[Chorus]
So don’t be messing around, don’t be messing around (with me)
Don’t be messing around (with me) hey hey hey
So don’t be messing around, don’t be messing around (with me)
Don’t be messing around (with me) hey

[Verse 2]
If I started now in the deep
Think you said this feeling is your life
I’ll be so proud if you let me love you girl
Let me love you for a little while

[Chorus]
Don’t be messing around, don’t be messing around
Don’t be messing around (with me) hey hey hey

Don’t be messing around (with me) hey
Oho yeah yeah
Oho yeah, oho yeah, oho yeah

[Verse 3]
Now she started finger-popping to the beat
So I said let’s get right on the floor
She said to keep your mind on dancing
Won't be no romancing
No, no, don't mess around with me
I ain't playing

[Chorus]
Don’t be messing around, don’t be messing around (with me)
Don’t be messing around (with me) hey hey hey
So don’t be messing around, don’t be messing around (with me)
Don’t be messing around (with me) hey hey

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
