I heard you good with them soft lips
Yeah you know word of mouth
The square root of sixty nine is eight something, right?
'Cause I've been tryna work it out, ow
Good weed, white wine, uh
I come alive in the night time
Okay, away we go
Only thing we have on is the radio-oh
Let it play, say you gotta leave
But I know you wanna stay
You are waiting on the traffic jam to finish girl
The things we could do in twenty minutes girl
Say my name, say my name
Wear it out, its getting hot, crack a window, air it out
I can get you through a mighty long day
Soon as I go the text you goin' right is goin' say

That keeps me so off balance

Hey boy I wanna see 
If you can go downtown with a girl like me
Hey boy, I wanna be with you

Looking for a guy to put your work up

If you can go downtown with a girl like me

And ain't nowhere that I'd be
Then with your arms around me
Back and forth you rock me yeah
So I surrender, to every word you whisper
Every door you enter, I will let you in

Way past the point of turning me on
You bout to break me, 
I swear you got me losing my mind
