Now usually I don't do this but uh
Go head' on and break 'em off wit a lil' preview of the remix

No I'm not tryin' to be rude,
But hey pretty girl I'm feelin' you
The way you do the things you do
Remind me of my Lexus coup
That's why I'm all up in yo grill
Tryna get you to a hotel
You must be a football coach
The way you got me playin' the field

So baby gimme that toot toot
Lemme give you that beep beep
Runnin' her hands through my 'fro
Bouncin' on 24's
While they sayin on the radio

It's the remix to ignition
Hot and fresh out the kitchen
Mama rollin' that body
Got every man in here wishin'
Sippin' on coke and rum
I'm like so what I'm drunk
It's the freakin' weekend baby
I'm about to have me some fun

Bounce Bounce Bounce Bounce Bounce Bounce Bounce
Bounce Bounce Bounce

Now it's like murder she wrote
Once I get you out them clothes
Privacy is on the door
But still they can hear you screamin' more
Girl I'm feelin' what you feelin'
No more hopin' and wishin'
I'm bout to take my key and
Stick it in the ignition

So gimme that toot toot
Lemme give you that beep beep
Runnin' her hands through my 'fro
Bouncin' on 24's
While they sayin on the radio

This is the remix to ignition
Hot and fresh out the kitchen
Mama rollin' that body
Got every man in here wishin'
Sippin' on coke and rum
I'm like so what I'm drunk
It's the freakin' weekend baby
I'm about to have me some fun

Crystal poppin' in the stretch Navigator
We got food every where
As if the party was catered
We got fellas to my left
Honeys on my right
We bring em both together we got junkin' all night
Then after the show its the (after party)
And after the party its the (hotel lobby)
Around about 4 you gotta (clear the lobby)
Then head take it to the room and freak somebody

Can I get a toot toot
Can I get a beep beep
Runnin' her hands through my 'fro
Bouncin' on 24's
While they sayin on the radio

It's the remix to ignition
Hot and fresh out the kitchen
Mama rollin' that body
Got every man in here wishin'
Sippin' on coke and rum
I'm like so what I'm drunk
It's the freakin' weekend baby
I'm about to have me some fun

This is the remix to ignition
Hot and fresh out the kitchen
Mama rollin' that body
Got every man in here wishin'
Sippin' on coke and rum
I'm like so what I'm drunk
It's the freakin' weekend baby
I'm about to have me some fun

Girl we off in this jeep
Foggin' windows up
Blastin' the radio
In the back of my truck
Bouncin' up and down
Stroke it round and round
To the remix
We just thuggin' it out
