Y'know the joint was jumping
Like a dancing fool
I saw you standing in the corner
Looking oh, so cool
I had a word with the dj
To make the music hot
I'm gonna get you on the dance floor
If you are ready or not

Slow poke music
I'll get you down to the bone
Slow poke music
I'll never leave you alone, I'll never leave you

When you move it to the left
Or you shake it to the right
No matter what you do, babe
It's like dynamite
With your sweet french perfume
An' that criminal walk
You know you'd melt my ice cream
With your body talk

Slow poke music
I'll get you down to the bone
Slow poke music
I'll never leave you alone, I'll never leave you

I'm gonna shake you down
Girl, I'm won't do you no harm

Well, you move so fine
Like stepping on glass
An' when you give me that smile
I see lightning flash
East an' west, north an' south
Oh babe, you're so hot
I'm gonna melt in your mouth

Slow poke music
I'll get you down to the bone
Slow poke music
Get into it, babe
Slow poke music
I'll nail it down to the bone
Slow poke music
Baby, baby, baby, baby
Girl, I'll never leave you alone...

Whitesnake are a rock band formed in England in 1978 by David Coverdale, after his departure from his previous band Deep Purple. Their early material has been compared by critics to the blues rock of Deep Purple, but they slowly began moving toward a more commercially accessible rock style. By the turn of the decade, the band’s commercial fortunes changed and they released a string of UK top 10 albums, Ready an' Willing (1980), Come an' Get It (1981), Saints & Sinners (1982) and Slide It In (1984), the last of which was their first to chart in the US and is certified 2x platinum.
