I'll give you what I hear When she walked in with her painted lips Did she tease you for your flirty quips Did she leave you frozen with the wrong words chosen You gotta show her why she can't resist Make her blush now, you put your hands on her hips She's gonna keep on playing until you stop chasing So wrap your arms around her body, tell her all she needs to know Give a little heart and soul Let your body lose control Give a little oh oh oh Give a little Wrap your arms around Give a little You gotta show her when she can't decide You gotta hold her, with that look in your eyes When you move in close take your time Leave an empty shoulder, let her move in closer And wrap your arms around her body, tell her all she needs to know Give a little heart and soul Let your body lose control Give a little oh oh oh Give a little Wrap your arms around Give a little (Wrap your arms around her body) (Know you wanna hold her body yeah) (Wrap your arms around her body) When she loves to keep you in suspense Know she loves to keep you in suspense But she knows she just wants to dance Give a little heart and soul Let her body loose control Give a little oh oh oh Give a little Wrap your arms around Give a little (Wrap your arms around) (You know you wanna hold her) (Wrap your arms around) Give a little
