Can't Sit Alone

Intro (Spoken / 8 bars)
Uh… yeah
Turn that bass up a little bit
Let it breathe
If you feel it, you’re already in it
Verse 1 (16 bars)
Friday night, shoes by the door
Heartbeat knockin’ on the hardwood floor
City buzz hummin’ in my bones
Streetlight glow like a microphone
Got a mirror sayin’ “you look alive”
Sweat on my neck but I feel just right
Clock keep tickin’, I don’t keep time
When the groove hit hard, I lose my mind
Bassline walk with a heavy lean
Drums talk slick, say “know what I mean?”
Every little sound got somethin’ to say
And my body reply like “lead the way”
No plan, no stress, no second guess
Just funk in my chest, yeah funk in my chest
Pre-Chorus (8 bars)
Hands in the air, let the rhythm decide
If you fight the groove, you losin’ the ride
Take one step, then another one still
Whole room vibin’ on a funky thrill
Chorus (8 bars)
I can’t sit still tonight
When the funk get deep and the vibe get right
From my head to my feet, I’m electrified
Yeah, I can’t sit still tonight
I can’t sit still tonight
When the bass go low and the keys ignite
If you feel that spark, don’t let it slide
Nah, I can’t sit still tonight
Verse 2 (16 bars)
Sweat drip slow like honey gold
Every move got a story told
DJ smile like he know my soul
Spin that record, let the good times roll
Guitar cry with a nasty laugh
Horn section cut me in half
Crowd say “hey!” crowd say “ho!”
Even shy folks stealin’ the show
Phone screen dark, world on pause
Funk got rules but it break all laws
Left foot slide, right foot stomp
Hit so hard make the ceiling jump
I ain’t dancin’ for the likes or fame
Just tryna feel every note by name
Pre-Chorus (8 bars)
Close your eyes, feel that push and pull
That groove don’t care if you cool
One heartbeat, one big sound
Whole place liftin’ off the ground
Chorus (8 bars)
I can’t sit still tonight
When the funk get deep and the vibe get right
From my head to my feet, I’m electrified
Yeah, I can’t sit still tonight
I can’t sit still tonight
When the bass go low and the keys ignite
If you feel that spark, don’t let it slide
Nah, I can’t sit still tonight
Bridge / Breakdown (16 bars)
Hold up—
Let the bass talk
(Bass & drums groove)
Clap it once (clap!)
Clap it twice (clap clap!)
If you feel that funk, say “nice!”
Say oooh (oooh!)
Say yeah (yeah!)
Bring that groove right back this way
Funk ain’t perfect, funk ain’t clean
It’s somewhere wild in between
If you move wrong, you move right
As long as you movin’ tonight
Final Chorus (12 bars)
I can’t sit still tonight
Every little sound got me feelin’ right
From the back of the room to the stage lights
Yeah, I can’t sit still tonight
I can’t sit still tonight
When the whole damn world feel synchronized
If the groove got soul, then so do I
Nah, I can’t sit still tonight
Outro (fade / 8 bars)
Slow it down… let it ride
Funk don’t leave, it just hide
Tomorrow wait, tonight feel
Keep that groove—keep it real
