(Say yeah, yeah)
(Say yeah)

[Verse 1]
Takin' a bite, we'll ride from the Apple
It's time to set this thing in motion
Roll through Detroit to feel all the action
You know that they'll be causin' a commotion
West to Chicago for a soulful supercharge
We'll be groovin' through Ohio reaching out for a star

[Chorus]
Because the beat is in heat
And it's coming your way
We'll be burnin' through the nation
Boogiein' from state to state
All the way

[Verse 2]
Turning around to catch Philadelphia
Where sure they got their sounds together
Well, hittin' the South through both Carolinas
'Causе they can funk in any kind of weather
Wе'll blast Atlanta with a special kind of brew
'Cause them folks down there in Georgia know the [?] to move
[Chorus]
You know the beat is in heat
And it's coming your way
We'll be burnin' through the nation
Boogiein' from state to state
(Burnin', groovin', rappin' to the beat)
All the way
(Burnin', strollin', dancin' in the street)

[Bridge]
Ain't no stop, we're gonna keep it hot
Got to raise our spirits high above us
Hold on tight, come on and do it right
We can bring this world alive
With love

[Verse 3]
*8 bars: Synth solo*
Jump on the feelin' and you'll never let it go
You can grease right into D.C., even rock Idaho

[Chorus]
You know the beat is in heat
And it's coming your way
We'll be burnin' through the nation
Boogiein' from state to state
(Burnin', groovin', rappin' to the beat)
All the way
(Burnin', strollin', dancin' in the street)
[Bridge]
Ain't no stop, we're gonna keep it hot
Got to raise our spirits high above us
Hold on tight, come on and do it right
We can bring this world alive
With love

[Verse 4]
Leavin' the east, we'll steam through to Texas
No doubt that Houston's got the music
Well, beat to the west, we'll cruise California
'Cause L.A. folks ain't never gonna lose it
No matter where you live, we're comin' out to you
So get ready for the rhythm, got to kick off your shoe

[Chorus]
Because the beat is in heat
And it's coming your way (it's comin' your way)
We'll be burnin' through the nation
Boogiein' from state to state
(Burnin', groovin', rappin' to the beat)
All the way
(Burnin', strollin', dancin' in the street)

State to state
(Burnin', groovin', rappin' to the beat)
All the way
(Burnin', strollin', dancin' in the street)
State to state
[Breakdown]
Burnin' through the nation
State to state

[Outro]
There's a party goin' down
From the east to the west
You can hear the sound
Gotta get into the jam
From the north to the south
Any way you can
