A brief history

“Got The Hots” was a contender for the “Thriller” album but failed to me it on the final track list. It was also considered for the 2001 “Thriller Special Edition,” but again got cut. Finally it appeared on the 2008 “Thriller 25” album, but even then only on the Japanese only edition. It eventually got released more broadly on the “Thriller 40” album in 2022.

You know I can’t get away from you girl
(You’ve got me shakin’)
I need all of the things you do girl
(My body’s aching)
Come on, baby
Get up, and rock it to the rhythm
Put out your heart to me
And lady let me set you free

Our love will shine at the dawn of a brand new feeling
Just take your time and you’ll see that the magic’s on its way
Girl if we try
We can set all our senses reeling
That’s the day
You know I got the hots tonight
Now girl
Hee!
Hoo!

I go heart beating just for you girl
(You’ve got me shakin’)
I’ve tried all but I can’t get you girl
(My body’s aching)
Come on, baby
Get up, and rock it to the rhythm
(Rock it baby)
Put out your heart to me
And lady let me set you free

Our love will shine at the dawn of a brand new feeling
Just take your time and you’ll see that the magic’s on its way
Girl if we try
We can set all our senses reeling
That’s the day
You know I got the hots tonight
Tonight girl

Baby the love that is waiting inside you baby
Show me the passion and feel when I’m by your side
This is the time to discover the dream we make girl
Girl can you feel it
Time of your life

Don’t you know
Our love will shine at the dawn of a brand new feeling
Just take your time and you’ll see that the magic’s on its way
Girl if we try
We can set all our senses reeling
That’s the day
You know I got the hots tonight

Our love will shine at the dawn of a brand new feeling
Just take your time and you’ll see that the magic’s on its way
Girl if we try
We can set all our senses reeling
That’s the day
You know I got the hots tonight

Our love will shine at the dawn of a brand new feeling
Just take your time and you’ll see that the magic’s on its way
Girl if we try
We can set all our senses reeling
That’s the day
You know I got the hots tonight
Now girl
Hee!

You know I got the hots tonight
Tonight girl

Baby the love that is waiting inside you baby
Show me the passion and feel when I’m by your side
This is the time to discover the dream we make girl

Our love will shine at the dawn of a brand new feeling
Just take your time and you’ll see that the magic’s on its way
Girl if we try
We can set all our senses reeling
That’s the day
You know I got the hots tonight
