Lyrics of
The Way You Make Me Feel

The Way You Make Me Feel was written and composed by Michael Jackson and produced by Quincy Jones. It is the third track on the album Bad (1987). The song was released as the albums third single in November 1987. It is an expression of love, with Jackson singing about the effect a girl has on him. The music video for the song, directed by Joe Pytka, became iconic, featuring a long dance sequence of Jackson being pursued by a woman.

Hey pretty baby with the high heels on
You give me fever like I've never, ever known
You're just a product of loveliness
I like the groove of your walk, your talk, your dress
I feel your fever from miles around
I'll pick you up in my car and we'll paint the town
Just kiss me baby and tell me twice
That you're the one for me

The way you make me feel (the way you make me feel)
You really turn me on (you really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet (you knock me off of my feet)
My lonely days are gone (my lonely days are gone)

I like the feelin' you're givin' me
Just hold me baby and I'm in ecstasy
Oh, I'll be workin' from nine to five
To buy you things to keep you by my side
I never felt so in love before
Just promise baby, you'll love me forevermore
I swear I'm keepin' you satisfied
Cause you're the one for me

The way you make me feel (the way you make me feel)
You really turn me on (you really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet (you knock me off of my feet)
My lonely days are gone (my lonely days are gone)

Go on girl! Go on! Hee-hee! Ow! Go on girl! Ooh! Ooh!

I never felt so in love before
Just promise baby, you'll love me forevermore
I swear I'm keepin' you satisfied
Cause you're the one for me

The way you make me feel (the way you make me feel)
You really turn me on (you really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet (you knock me off of my feet)
My lonely days are gone (my lonely days are gone)
The way you make me fe-heel (the way you make me feel)
You really turn me on (you really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet (you knock me off of my feet) Hee!!
My lonely days are gone (my lonely days are gone)

Ain't nobody's business, ain't nobody's business
Ain't nobody's business, ain't nobody's business but mine and my baby
Hee hee! Hee hee! Ooh!
Give it to me, give me some time
Come on be my girl, I want yourself for mine
Ain't nobody's business, ain't nobody's business but mine and my baby's
Go on girl! Ow!

Hee-hee! Ooh! Ch-ka ch-ka ch-ka ch-ka Go on girl!
(the way you make me feel) Hee-hee, hee-hee-hee
(you really turn me on)
(you knock me off of my feet)
(my lonely days are gone)

Give it to me, give me some time
Come on be my girl, I wanna be with mine
Ain't nobody's business, ain't nobody's business but mine and my baby's
Go on girl
Give it to me, give me some time
Come on be my girl, I wanna be with mine
Ain't nobody's business
