Most people say, they think, huh, well
Why don't you get to know me

Don't be afraid to touch
I know you think I'm a good girl
Don't you think a girl like me can be (touched)
Don't be afraid to touch
I know you think I'm a good girl
Don't you think a girl like me should be(touched)

He's lookin' like he can't believe this
Always in my jeans
And bet he don't know what I'm thinkin'       
(I want to take him home with me)
This here's gonna be my weekend
I don't think he knows that I see him
His body gots me weak (and I can't wait to see)

What it is I really want is for him to do to me what he wants to
He would want to, yeah 
He can come inside my mind
If he tried but he don't know how I want to
Baby, don't you know what you get from me

Don't be afraid to touch
I know you think I'm a good girl
Don't you think a girl like me can be (touched)
Don't be afraid to touch
I know you think I'm a good girl
Don't you think a girl like me should be(touched)

I know I ain't been drinkin'
Damn, he's got me leanin'
All up in my ear breathin'
We over here makin' a scene and I don't really care who sees
I just want him to feel (my love inside of me)

What it is I really want is for him to do to me what he wants to
He would want to, yeah
He can come inside my mind
If he tried but he don't know how I want to
Baby, don't you know what you get from me

Don't be afraid to touch
I know you think I'm a good girl
Don't you think a girl like me can be (touched)
Don't be afraid to touch
I know you think I'm a good girl
Don't you think a girl like me should be(touched)

Oh no
I like that
Right there (don't think)
Baby just wait, don't move

What it is I really want is for him to do to me what he wants to 
He would want to, yeah
He can come inside my mind
If he tried but he don't know how I want to
Baby, don't you know what you get from me

Don't be afraid to touch
I know you think I'm a good girl
Don't you think a girl like me can be (touched)
Don't be afraid to touch
I know you think I'm a good girl
Don't you think a girl like me should be(touched)
