Lyrics

Hey Shakalo-Teves

If you want to party
on Saturday night
here’s my recipe
if you want to do it right
Get the best musicians
who know what to bring
Clear out the floor
for the dancers to swing
But there’s one more thing
you oughta know
It just ain’t a party
without Shakalo

They say
Hey Shakalo
everybody wants to know
if you’re gonna show
cause everybody knows
It ain’t a party
unless you got some Shakalo

He ain’t just a person
he’s more like a scene
Harp, drums, precussion,
anything with a string
He’s louder than the crowd
with his Atlas voice
Maracas and dancing
are his weapons of choice
If you don’t get up then
nothings gonna change
If you want to have a party
hear what the people say

They say now Hey Shakalo
Everybody wants to know
If you’re gonna show
Cause Everybody knows
It aint a party
unless you got some Shakalo

Everybody’s happy
Everyone is having fun
Ain’t no wall flowers
no sticks in the mud
Roust up all the neighbors
Don’t let nobody sleep
It’s gonna fix your head
when you hear that crazy beat
Shut off your phone
turn on your life
feel it in your soul
when the rhythm is right

They say Hey Shakalo
Everybody wants to know
If you’re gonna show
Cause Everybody knows
It aint a party
unless you got some Shakalo-(repeat)
