This song was originally written by a guy called Peter Gutteridge. He was one of the founders of the "Dunedin Sound" a musical scene in the south of New Zealand in the early 80s. From there it was covered by "The Clean" one of the early bands of that scene (he had originally been a member of in it's early days, writing a couple of their best early songs). The Dunedin sound, and the Clean became popular on american college radio in the mid to late 80s. I guess Yo La Tengo heard that version.
Great version of a great song,
Drop it low,
Pop it up, pop it up, turn around (x4)
[Kat Deluna - Verse 1]
Move your body baby, bom bom bom
When I shake it, I'mma steal-a the show
Come one baby, run run run
Quiero eso, dale long long long
Whine up, baby, whine, whine, whine
Take it slow, do it one more time
Feel it up, perfect moment la cool-a
Feel it up, like tomorrow, tomorrow
Feel it up, you never forget it
I'mma see you looking it at me
Oh my my sexy boy
Uno, dos, tres
Dale...Move you body!
Drop it low,
Pop it up, pop it up, turn around (x2)
Pa abajo, dale pa abajo

Drop it low,
Pop it up, pop it up, turn around (x2)
[Kat Deluna - Verse 2]
Move your body baby, round, round, round
Make it happen, then show it around
Shake your booty, make it pow, pow, pow
Turn around, keep it coming for more-a
Break a sweat, he'll be back in for more-a
Hold my body like a coca cola
Move your body, baby take me ahora
Come to me, cuz you like my sabor-a

Todo el mundo se menea, se menea, se menea
Todo el mundo se menea, se menea, se menea
