Messin', messin' our business
Pay no attention baby, hold your little head up high now

People gonna talk, people gonna hate us
People gonna talk and ooh
People gonna be people and I tell you people they just gotta talk

Ooh, don't worry baby, it's gonna be all right
Can't nobody ever bring us down now
We got it baby, we got the real real thing
The way you walk, I’ll tell you sure is nice
It makes 'em nervous just to watch you walk, baby
Keep on struttin' honey, hold your little head up high now

People gonna talk, people gonna stare
People gonna balk and ooh
