refers to two things, in my experience.
1. a rhythm pattern where the percussive bass takes place on every downbeat. Common in house, trance, other forms of techno, disco, etc.
it is the opposite of a breakbeat, where the percussive bass can be anywhere, but is normally not on beats 2 and 4, and rarely on 3.
2. refers to a 4 speed transmittion with the shifter on the floor (as opposed to the dash or the column)

1. I dig that four-on-the-floor beat; it goes well with the bassline.
2. John wrecked the four-on-the-floor transmittion in his car by going 80 MPH and then quickly shifting into reverse.

Get the four on the floor mug.When you find that your beloved pet dog or cat has piddled (pissed, passed micturition, uranated, pottied, peed, etc.) all over the floor (the kitchen floor in particular; but carpeted floors throughout the house would still qualify), you sing this little jingle.
{Sung to the tune of the nursery rhyme, "The Farmer in the Dell"}:
♫ There's pee-pee on the floor, ♫
♫ There's pee-pee on the floor, ♫
♫ Don't step in the litter box ♫
♫ There's pee-pee on the floor, ♫
♫ There's pee-pee on the floor, ♫
♫ There's pee-pee on the floor, ♫
♫ Don't step in the litter box ♫
♫ There's pee-pee on the floor, ♫
