[Chorus: Jackson 5]
Come on and do the love dance
Yes, you can, yes, you can
Come on and do the love dance
With your eyes, with your hands
[Verse 1: Michael]
Body language, body language
Let you move it 'til your secrets deep within
The body language, body language
Let your body tell the story if you can
[Chorus: Jackson 5]
Come on and do the love dance
Move your mighty mighty body, baby
Come on and do the love dance
Shake your mighty mighty body, baby
[Verse 2: Jermaine + Michael]
Now girls and boys around the world join hands
Express yourself in anyway you can
We're gonna groove you, let the music take your mind now
And start your body moving right on time now
Move it, move your mighty, mighty body, baby
Express yourself, oh, move it, express yourself
Move it, move it, move it, move it, baby
Oh, move baby
[Bridge: Jackson 5+Michael]
Oh shake it to the east, shake it the west
Shake it to the very one you love best
Body language
Do the love dance
Body language
Yes, you can can, yes, you can can, yes, you can can
Let you move me 'til your secret deep within
Express yourself, express yourself
[Jermaine]
You do it with your eyes, you do it with your hands
You do it with your feet, you do the love dance
You do the love dance, you do the love dance
[Jackson 5]
Ahh...
