[Intro: Mystikal]
Mmm! Mmm, mmm, mmm
Oooh-OOOH!

[Chorus: Mystikal]
Shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with
Shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast

[Verse 1: Mystikal]
I came here with the mic in my hand
Don't make me leave here with my foot in yo' - be cool
And don't worry about how I'm ripping this
When I'm flipping what I'm kicking, that's just what I do
I'm effervescent and I'm off that crescent
Nastier than a full grown German Shepherd; you better keep stepping
They don't mess with me and they don't
Y'all can't catch me and they won't
Pay your fare, fix your hair, throw that
Got a Prada for my boot knockers, and Donna for my babooski
You think I'm tricking? Well, I ain't trippin'
I'm buying if you got nice curves for your iceberg
Drinking Henn and acting like it do something to me
Hope this indecent proposal make you do something with me
Forget a dollar, girl, pick up fifty, mmm
Forget that coward, girl, you need a real
Off top the knick-a-boxers hurting me
Bend over, girl, show me what you're working with

[Chorus: Mystikal]
Shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with
But shake it fast, but watch yourself

[Bridge: Pharrell Williams, Mystikal]
Attention all y'all players and pimps (Shake it fast)
Right now in the place to be
I thought I told y'all dudes before
Y'all dudes can't mess with me (Watch yourself)
Now this ain't for no small booties
No sir 'cause that won't pass (Show me what you're working with)
But if you feel you got the biggest one
Then momma come shake it fast

[Chorus: Mystikal]
Shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with
But shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with

[Verse 2: Mystikal]
I like my women fire like CAY-ENNE!!
Chocolate and bowlegged - when I'm runnin' up behind her
Go 'head do your job, pop the lock, let the
For real, girl, don't lie, you know you wanna go back to my house
"The Man Right Chea" wanna get under that dress right there
You spicy cajun we gon' a good time over there
You better suck the head on them there crawfish
And you gotta bend all the way over to dance off this
Handle your business but I know you do it way better, you dead wrong
So if you talking 'bout it and they make noise when you pass by, girl
Get your fine self on the floor, this your song
Do your thing don't be scurred, 'cause you gon' get served
You get mine then you gon' get yours
'Bout to make you love it
Raise it up, show the G-string, hustle, hustle

[Bridge: Pharrell Williams, Mystikal]
Attention all y'all players and pimps (Shake it fast)
Right now in the place to be
I thought I told y'all dudes before
Y'all dudes can't mess with me (Watch yourself)
Now this ain't for no small booties
No sir 'cause that won't pass (Show me what you're working with)
But if you feel you got the biggest one
Then momma come shake it fast

[Chorus: Mystikal]
Shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with
But shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with

[Verse 3: Mystikal]
Stop your cryin', heifer, I don't need all that
I got a job for you - the braided up pimp is back
Break them handcuffs, forget your man, move something
And if they ask you what you doing say, "Ooohh nuttin"
And we been doing for the past 2 something
And I've been beating the stuffing up, not smooth loving
You can bet your bottom dollar, if it's fire
You gon' holla Michael Tyler
So don't act like you don't be backing that stuff up
Get your girl in the club, 'cause that's what you got back for
Wobble wobble, I'm infatuated
The girl work that thing like she making a baby
And I see that we gon' have to go to a quiet corner for just us two and
Don't worry about who looking, just keep on doing what you doing
'Cause a brother like me gon' get to work before I know the girl
Trick, what's happening? Let 'em see, show the world

[Bridge: Pharrell Williams, Mystikal]
Attention all y'all players and pimps (Shake it fast)
Right now in the place to be
I thought I told y'all dudes before
Y'all dudes can't mess with me (Watch yourself)
Now this ain't for no small booties
No sir 'cause that won't pass (Show me what you're working with)
But if you feel you got the biggest one
Then momma come shake it fast

[Chorus: Mystikal]
Shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with
But shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with
Shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with
But shake it fast, but watch yourself
Shake it fast, show me what you're working with

[Outro: Mystikal]
OOOH-OOOH! Good lawd!
You working with something
Hmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, woo

Mystikal

Michael Lawrence Tyler, better known as Mystikal, is an American rapper, best known for his wild, untamable voice, along with his single “Shake Ya Ass”. Though it presented Mystikal’s typical and funky flow style, which had the distinction of drawing comparison to legendary R&B soul screamers Little Richard and James Brown, the song also saw a blending of jazz and swing elements with hip-hop. He was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rap Album in 2003, and was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Male Rap Solo Performance that same year. Mystikal was also featured iconically in the single, “Move Bitch” by Ludacris as well as “I Don’t Give a Fuck” by Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz along with Krayzie Bone, both in 2002.
