Milsap, Ronnie - Earthquake Lyrics






Mmm, mmm-mmm-mmm
Now hit me! Ooh-yeah! Hooh!

Ooh-ee baby, don't you know you set my soul on fire
You're like a double scoop o' ice cream
Sittin' on top of a cherry pie
Ooh-ee baby, don't you know you make me lose control
Come on over to me mamma, let me feel your rock 'n' roll.

'Cause you know you got what it takes
To make my body shake - just like an earthquake
You shake my body down
Like an earthquake, you shake my body down.

Ooh-ee baby, I'm a twitchin' and a tremblin' inside
You've got me covered up in love
I'm buried in your landslide
Ooh-ee baby, I'm a livin' in a danger zone, yeah
I'm in a cold, cold sweat and my mouth is dry as a bone.

'Cause you know you've got what it takes
To make my body shake just like an earthquake, wooh
You shake my body down
I said an earthquake, you shake my body down.

Ooh, a hurricane ain't got nothin' on you, no
'Cause you blow me away, there's nothin' I can say or do
Except shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Shake, shake (like an earthquake)
I just shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Harmonica comin' in, Oh Lord, wooh.

Oh, oh, oh, a hurricane ain't got nothin' on you
'Cause you blow me away, there's nothin' I can say or do
Except shake, shake (like an earthquake)
I just shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Shake, shake (like an earthquake),
Shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Shake, shake (earthquake), shake, shake (earthquake)
You got me shakin' and tremblin' (like an earthquake)
Oh Lord, shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Oh, oh, You got me shakin' and tremblin' (like an earthquake)
Shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Oh, oh, you got me shakin' baby
I just shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Oh yeah, I just shake, shake (like an earthquake)
Oh, I just shake, shake (like an earthquake)
I just shake, shake (like an earthquake)
I just shake, shake (ahhhh)...

  11. k.... ....

    I love this song and the earthquake line dance! So fun!

  12. T.... ....

    @CharlieAndRonnie Yeah, I know. I had...HAD...both of those songs on cassette (dating myself here...lol) and WISH that I could find someone that has them on CD. Looked a few places online and they are used or not in stock, none are even "like new" condition. Oh well...the search WILL continue...

  13. S.... ....

    @eversafe1963 That was on Ronnie Milsap's "Greatest Hits Vol. 3" compilation. It was a then-new track ( along w/ "L.A. to the Moon"). However, it didn't get released as a single. The same thing happened w/ "It's Already Taken" from Vol. 2.

  14. C.... W....

    this song is awesome and sadly they done't have this song or album that this song came from on Itunes !!( This song shouldn't even be a Country it's more Pop/Soul sounding than Country!! thanks for posting this!!

  15. T.... ....

    Nevermind, it was merely a bug and fixed itself...

  16. T.... ....

    Does anyone have his song "Quicksand"...?

  17. T.... ....

    Something is wrong with this...it stops at 2:25...???

  18. B.... ....

    Yes I agree, "Truth is I've been known to Lie" is one of the greatest unknown blues songs ever recorded. Ronnie belts the hell out of that song and like much of his best music, it is shamefully obscure. Somebody needs to post this song to show everyone who the most underrated blues singer of all time is!

  19. e.... ....

    This song is great but not popular. Hmmm. Wonder why.

  20. S.... ....

    This was the flipside of the Top 3 hit Old Folks, but the way those two songs are handled in musical style differently, you can't tell that just by listening. This is dance music with 2 screams near the end suggesting that the vocal range Ronnie Milsap had in the 1960s had always been there all along! Is it possible for anyone to post The Truth Is, I've Been Known To Lie? It, too, displays his seemingly unstoppable vocal range and equally stunning abilities to do the blues!

  21. S.... ....

    That would be nice. But, let's see... Hi-Heel Sneakers, Button Off My Shirt, Back To The Grindstone, Turn That Radio On, Love Certified (studio)...no, not all. Someone should seriously change that!

  22. D.... V....

    Definitely a baby making song:-)

  23. 1.... ....

    5 stars for ronnie

  24. B.... ....

    This is one of many great Milsap tunes that was never released as a single and is now obscure.

    This one shows the funk side of Ronnie and how well he can sing this type of music.

    B.... ....

    BloozeDaddy76 and keeps proving how sexy he is! 😍
