Booty Shakers

He said 'owwww' 
as she said 'ouchhh'.
On a Saturday night.

'Cause back in the day they could hit the dance floor,
 leaving others grinning , taking notes of their steppin' toes.

As the effortless sway from side to side,
made them smile, 
music just right,
jamming throughout the night.

The DJ was spinning records from the beginning,
 to the ending, as they placed upon their heads the crowns.

He said unto the crowd,
they were the booty shakers,
make no mistake, earthquakes
rumbled with each and every move.
Flips and turns, that others yearned,
wishing they, too could do; to watch and learn.

As royalty was on the dance floor.

leaving others to take note, and yearn for more.
