Don’t Stop the Music Lyrics

[Verse I]
It's getting late
I'm making my way over to my favorite place
I gotta get my body moving
Shake the stress away
I wasn't looking for nobody when you looked my way
Possible candidate (yeah)

Who knew
That you'd be up here looking like you do
You're making staying over here impossible
Baby I must say your aura is incredible
If you don't have to go, don't

[Pre-Chorus]
Do you know what you started
I just came here to party
Now we're rocking on the dancefloor
Acting naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand
Chest to chest
Now we're face to face

[Chorus]
I wanna take you away
Lets escape into the music
DJ let it play
I just can't refuse it
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music
I wanna take you away
Lets escape into the music
Dj let it play
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

[Solo]
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

[Verse II]
I said Baby
Baby are you ready cause it's getting close
Don't you feel the passion ready to explode
What goes on between us no one has to know
This is a private show (oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Do you know what you started
I just came here to party
But now we're rockin on the dancefloor
Acting naughty
Your hands around my waist
Just let the music play
We're hand in hand
Chest to chest
Now we're face to face, cause
[Chorus]
I wanna take you away
Lets escape into the music
DJ let it play
I just can't refuse it
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music

I wanna take you away
Lets escape into the music
Dj let it play
Like the way you do this
Keep on rockin to it
Please don't stop the music
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the
Please don't stop the music (hey!)

Please don't stop the music (oh!)

(yeah...)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Don’t Stop The Music is the sixth track on Jamie Cullum’s fourth studio album The Pursuit, which was released in November 2009 (UK). The song became its second single after “I’m All Over It”.

The track is a jazzy, piano-driven cover of Rihannas dance-pop hit by the same name from her album Good Girl Gone Bad (2007).

Perhaps that’s one of the reasons, why the video for Don’t Stop The Music became Jamie Cullum’s most viewed one, up until then.
