Natalie La Rose

I wanna rock with somebody (whoah yeah)
I wanna take shot with somebody (shot, shot, shot, shot)
I wanna leave with somebody (somebody, comm'on, comm'on)
And we ain't gonna tell nobody

Walking everybody knows what's good
But some gonna hate what's new
We just do our favorite time to waste
Always playing cool

And at the end of the night
When our love's going out we turn down
Oh no we won't (we'll never turn it down, we'll never turn it down)
And when it try to make this leave we turn to say we never going home

Walking everybody know what's good

Bring us everything we think we need
Tonight is going up (tonight is going up)

And at the end of the night

Oh no we won't (we'll never turn it down, we'll never turn it down)
And when it try to make this leave we turn to say we never going home

I wanna rock with somebody (whoah yeah)
I wanna take shot with somebody (shot, shot, shot, shot)
I wanna leave with somebody (somebody, comm'on, comm'on)
And we ain't gonna tell nobody
We ain't gonna tell nobody
