Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis
Escapade (The Get Away 7")
[Intro]
Let's go!
That is so funky
That is so funky

[Verse 1]
As I was walkin by
Saw you standin' there with a smile
Lookin' shy, you caught my eye
Thought you'd want to hang for a while
Well, I'd like to be with you
And you know it's Friday, too
I hope you can find the time
This weekend to relax and unwind

[Pre-Chorus]
My mind's tired
I've worked so hard all week (Ooh, all week)
Cashed my check
I'm ready to go
I promise you
I'll show you such a good time

[Chorus]
Come on, baby let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (Let's go)
[Post-Chorus]
Es-ca-pade
We'll have a good time
Es-ca-pade
Leave your worries behind
Es-ca-pade
You can be mine
Es-ca-pade
An escapade

[Pre-Chorus]
So don't hold back
Just have a good time, yeah
We'll make the rules up
As we go along
And break them all
If we're not havin' fun

[Chorus]
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (On an escapade, baby)
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (Let's go)
[Bridge]
Minneapolis
Come on

Es-ca-pade (Here we go), es-ca-pade, es-ca-pade

Let me take you on an escapade

My mind's tired I've worked
Worked so hard all week
I just got paid, we've got it made
Ready to go
I promise you I'll show you
Such a good time

[Chorus]
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (Let's go)
Come on, baby, let's get away
Let's save your troubles for another day
Come go with me we've got it made
Let me take you on an escapade (On an escapade, baby)

[Outro]
That is so funky
Want me to do it again?
