Lyrics
I was sitting at home, yes, I was
And it occured to me, yes, it did
I thought about the disc jockeys, yeah
Playing them ballads and the beat all day long
So I decided, yes, I did
Give them a little tune they could take five on
Because I know they get tired
Playing them records all day long, mind him, yeah
We gonna call it, we gonna call it
D.J. and me, sing along with Ree
The Mr. and Mrs. D.J. I know your listeners alright
You get up and do your number right about this time
I’m making it good and I’ll make you feel together
Let it all hang out and do your number
Get down to the real true grit
Hang on in there and let it rock, Mr. D.J.
Get on in there, you all, and let it roll, oh
Hang on in there now, we’re gonna do it together
Oh, hang on in there, yeah, you gotta shake your funky soul
We gonna call it, we gonna call it
D.J. and me, and sing along with Ree
Here comes the part I know you’re gonna
Cause we all get a chance to hear you
When the part hang on in there comes around
Do your number three, here we go
Hang on in there and let it rock
Oh, hang on in there, you all, and let it roll
Hang on in there, yeah, do it together
You gotta hang on in there now, you gotta shake your funky soul
Hang on in there, have you got it?
Hang on in there, oh, have you got it?
Oh, hang on in there and let it rock, Mr. D.J.
Hang on in there, you all, and let it roll
Oh, hang on in there, woo, and let it rock, Mr. D.J.
Hang on in there, you all, and let it roll
Hang on in there, oh, let it rock, Mr. D.J.
Hang on in there, yeah, and let it roll
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, hang on in there, good God almighty
Hang on in there, you all, you gotta shake your funky soul
Hang on, hang on, hang on and let it rock, Mr. D.J.
Hang on in there, yeah, and let it roll
Ow, hang on in there ow, and let it rock, uh
Hang on in there, you gotta shake your funky soul
Ow, hang on in there and let it rock
Hang on in there, yeah, you gotta let the good times roll
Hang on in there and let it rock, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hang on in there, you gotta shake your funky soul
Català – Sr. D.J. (5 Per Al D.J.)
Estava asseguda a casa, sí, hi estava
I se’m va acudir, sí, va passar
Vaig pensar en el disc jockeys, sí
Punxant les seves balades i ritmes durant tot el dia
Així que vaig decidir, sí, ho vaig fer
Donar-los una petita melodia per tal que poguessin relaxar-se un moment
Perquè sé que es cansen
Punxant els seus discos tot el dia, penseu en ells, sí
Ho anomenarem, ho anomenarem
El D.J. i jo, canteu plegats amb Ree (Aretha)
Sr i Sra D.J., conec bé els seus oients
Aixequeu-vos i feu el vostre número ara mateix
Ho estic fent bé i faré que us hi sentiu integrats
Deixeu passar l’estona i feu el vostre número
Baixeu al fons real i veritable
Aguanta aquí i deixa que flueixi, Sr D.J.
Entreu aquí dins, tots, i deixeu-ho rodar, oh
Aguanteu aquí, ara, ho farem junts
Oh, aguanteu aquí, sí, heu de sacsejar la vostra ànima autèntica
Ho anomenarem, ho anomenarem
El D.J. i jo, i canteu plegats amb Ree (Aretha)
Ara ve la part que sé que et va
Perquè tots tenim l’oportunitat d’escoltar-te
Quan la part d’aguantar aquí, vingui
Fes el teu tercer número, som-hi
Aguanteu aquí i deixeu que flueixi
Oh, aguanteu aquí, tots, i deixeu-ho rodar
Aguanteu aquí, sí, feu-ho junts
Heu d’aguantar aquí dins ara, heu de sacsejar la vostra ànima autèntica
Aguanteu aquí, ho teniu?
Aguanteu aquí, oh, ho heu entès?
Oh, aguanta aquí i deixa que flueixi, Sr D.J.
Aguanteu aquí, tots, i deixeu-ho rodar
Oh, aguanta aquí, woo, i deixa que flueixi, Sr D.J.
Aguanteu aquí, tots, i deixeu-ho rodar
Aguanta aquí, oh, deixa que flueixi, Sr D.J.
Aguanteu aquí, sí, i deixeu-ho rodar
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, aguanteu aquí, bon Déu totpoderós
Aguanteu aquí, tots, heu de sacsejar la vostra ànima autèntica
Aguanteu, aguanteu, aguanteu i deixa que flueixi, Sr D.J.
Aguanteu aquí, sí, i deixeu-ho rodar
Ai, aguanteu aquí, ai, i deixeu que flueixi, uh
Aguanteu aquí, heu de sacsejar la vostra ànima autèntica
Ai, aguanteu aquí i deixeu que flueixi
Aguanteu aquí, sí, heu de deixar que els bons temps rutllin
Aguanteu aquí i deixeu que flueixi, sí, sí, sí
Aguanteu aquí, heu de sacsejar la vostra ànima autèntica
