To the Floor Lyrics

[Intro: The Neptunes]
Oh, to the floor, everybody to the floor
Neptunes
To the floor, everybody to the floor
MC, Nelly

[Verse 1: Mariah Carey & (Nelly)]
Baby, I don't wanna let you think I'm
(I like to try you, I think you so on fire)
Easy, like them other girls you be seeing
(I can't deny you, I keep trying to fight it)

[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey & (Nelly)]
I'm saying, I just want to make sure that
You really want me just for me
Because it's not just that I'm so impressed
By your cars and jewelry
And you know like I know
Feel that chemistry
(You know I feel it just the same as you
So why don't you bring that down to me?)

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & (Nelly)]
Whatever happens (Whatever happens)
It's going down tonight
(I said, it's all going down tonight)
(I said, it's all going down tonight)
(I said, it's all going down tonight)
(So get ready)
Because you and me got business
We are gonna handle it tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
To the floor, everybody to the floor

(I like to try ya, I think you're so on fire)
Easy, girl, I just think that you are so outstanding
(I can't deny ya, keep trying to fight it)

[Pre-Chorus: Mariah Carey & (Nelly)]
I'm saying, I just want to make sure that
You really want me just for me
Because it's not just that I'm so impressed
By your cars and jewelry
And you know like I know
Feel that chemistry
(You know I feel it just the same as you
So why don't you bring that down to me)

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & (Nelly)]
Whatever happens (Whatever happens)
It's going down tonight

To the floor, everybody to the floor

[Bridge: Mariah Carey]
Looks like its right
For you and I
It's going down tonight

[Chorus: Mariah Carey & (Nelly)]
Whatever happens (Whatever happens)
It's going down tonight
(I said, it's all going down tonight
I said, it's all going down tonight
I said, it's all going down tonight
So get ready)
Because you and me got business
We are gonna handle it tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Whatever happens (Whatever happens)
It's going down tonight

I said, it's all going down tonight
I said, it's all going down tonight
So get ready)
Because you and me got business
We are gonna handle it tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight

[Outro: Mariah Carey]
It's going down tonight, it's going down tonight
It's going down tonight, it's going down tonight

About

This song bio is unreviewed

To the Floor is the 12th track on Carey’s alum The Emancipation of Mimi. And of course the GREAT Neptunes are behind the track.

In a 2005 interview Mariah had this to say about working with Nelly.

“When I worked with Nelly, that was the first time I worked with Nelly. Pharrell suggested that we should do a song together. We ended up collaborating together and I realize how melodic Nelly was. ”
