"Get Down on It" is a 1981 song by American band Kool & the Gang. It was originally released on their Something Special album in 1981. The single was certified Gold by the RIAA.
The song hit the top 10 of the US Pop and R&B charts in Billboard in early 1982. It entered the UK charts in December 1981 and reached number three, their highest-charting hit in the UK at that time.

Kool & the Gang are an American band formed in Jersey City, New Jersey in 1964 by brothers Robert "Kool" Bell and Ronald Bell, with Dennis "D.T." Thomas, Robert Mickens, Charles Smith, George Brown, and Ricky West. They have undergone numerous changes in personnel and have explored many musical styles throughout their history, including jazz, soul, funk, rock, and pop music. After settling on their name following several changes, the group signed to De-Lite Records and released their debut album, Kool and the Gang (1970).
Oh, what you gonna do?
Do you wanna get down?

Get down on it, get down on it
Get down on it, get down on it
Come on and
Get down on it, get down on it
Get down on it, get down on it

How are you gonna do it if you really don't wanna dance
By standing on the wall - get your back up off the wall! Tell me
How are you gonna do it if you really don't wanna dance
By standing on the wall - get your back up off the wall!
'Cause I heard all the people sayin'

Get down on it, get down on it, get down on it, get down on it
Come on and - if you really want it - you gotta feel it - get down on it
Get down on it, get down on it, get down on it, get down on it
Come on and - baby baby - get on it

I said people, what? What you gonna do?
You gotta get on the groove
If you want your body to move - tell me baby

How are you gonna do it if you really don't wanna dance
By standing on the wall - get your back up off the wall! Tell me
How are you gonna do it if you really won't take a chance
By standing on the wall - get your back up off the wall!
'Cause I heard all the people sayin'

Get down on it, get down on it, get down on it, get down on it
When you're dancin'
Get down on it, get down on it, get down on it, get down on it
