Friday night was going nowhere…
Sitting in a small café
Feeling lonely, a little tired
I’ve been working hard all day

Then a noise caught my attention
And I heard a wonderful sound;
Coming at me like a tsunami
Nearly took my feet off the ground

A rush of excitement flowed into my ears
Oh, beautiful people, ah ha-hi ha-hi-ha!
Hi-ia-ia-ia!

Solayoh, Solayoh, where the sun is always shining on ya
We play-oh, we play-oh to the rhythm of a cha-cha
Solayoh, Solayoh, turn the music up, it's gonna get ya
We play-oh, we play-oh, we can make it into a hot night

Situation started improving
Maybe this was kismet now
And my body started moving
I was really shaking down

Something happened when I was dancing
I could feel that powerful beat
Taking me to new dimensions
Waking up the devil in me
A heavenly chorus and love all around
Oh, beautiful people, ah ha-hi ha-hi-ha!
Hi-ia-ia-ia!

Solayoh, Solayoh, where the sun is always shining on ya
We play-oh, we play-oh to the rhythm of a cha-cha
Solayoh, Solayoh, turn the music up, it's gonna get ya
We play-oh, we play-oh, we can make it into a hot night

It feels like I'm dreaming, this word makes no sense
Let's sing it again now, “Ah ha-i!”

Solayoh, Solayoh where the sun is always shining on ya
We play-oh, we play-oh to the rhythm of a cha-cha
Solayoh, Solayoh, turn the music up, it's gonna get ya
We play-oh, we play-oh, we can make it into a hot night
Solayoh, Solayoh, turn the music up, it's gonna get ya
We play-oh, we play-oh, we can make it into a hot night
We can make it into cha-cha!
