If you hear the rhythms of Lambada in an unusual cover on the radio, it is probably On the Floor, a song by Jennifer Lopez, known as J.Lo, taken from her 7th studio album, called Love?. The dance-pop single features Pitbull’s vocals and samples from the 1989 single “Lambada” by Kaoma.
The song premiered on the 18 January, 2011 and received positive response. On the Floor was sent to rhythmic and mainstream radio stations on 8 February, 2011. Though criticized for being unimaginative, Jennifer Lopez was praised for updating the latin beats of song and mixing it with dance-pop rhythms.
After release, On the Floor became J.Lo’s most successful song in 8 years. It has topped the Finnish singles and became a top-ten hit in Canada, Spain, Australia, the United States and Slovakia.

Jennifer Lopez – On the Floor Song Words
-LO!
It’s a new generation
Of party people
Darling get on the floor
Darling get on the floor
Let me introduce you to my party people
In the club…
Pitbull
I’m loose
And everybody knows I get off the train
Baby it’s the truth
I’m like inception I play with your brain
So I don’t sleep I snooze
I don’t play no games so don’t get it confused no
Cos you will lose yeah
Now pump it up
And back it up like a Tonka truck
Jennifer Lopez
If you go hard you gotta get on the floor
If you’re a party freak then step on the floor
If your an animal then tear up the floor
Break a sweat on the floor
Yeah we work on the floor
Don’t stop keep it moving
Put your drinks up
Pick your body up and drop it on the floor
Let the rhythm change your world on the floor
You know we’re running sh*t tonight on the floor
Brazil Morocco
London to Ibiza
Straight to LA, New York
Vegas to Africa
[Chorus]
Dance the night away
Live your life, and stay young on the floor
Dance the night away
Grab somebody drink a little more
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
[Verse 2]
I know you got it clap your hands on the floor
And keep on rockin’, rock it up on the floor
If you’re a criminal kill it on the floor
Steal it quick on the floor, on the floor
Don’t stop keep it moving
Put your drinks up
Its getting ill it’s getting sick on the floor
We never quit, we never rest on the floor
If I ain’t wrong we’ll probably die on the floor
Brazil Morocco
London to Ibiza
Straight to LA, New York
Vegas to Africa
[Chorus]
Dance the night away
Live your life, and stay young on the floor
Dance the night way
Grab somebody drink a little more
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
Lalalalalalalalalalalalalala
Tonight we gon’ be it on the floor
Pitbull
That badonka donk is like a trunk full of bass on an old school Chevy
All I need is some vodka and some… coke
And watch… get donkey konged
… if you’re ready for things to get heavy
I get on the floor and act a fool if you let me
Don’t believe me just vet me
My name ain’t Keath but I see why you Sweat me
L.A. Miami New York
Say no more get on the floor
