You say it's been too long Since you had some Just say I turn you on Like a fire that's burning inside You think that I'm the one You see in your dreams I know what you mean It's creepin' around in your head Me holdin' you down in my bed You don't have to say a word I'm convinced you want this Baby you know I can give it to you I can't deny I'd do it right Just let me know and I'll give it to you Show me where I'll taste you there Baby you know and I'll give it to you Your body needs a man like me Anything goes when I give it to you Without a doubt I'll turn you out The feeling is fine giving you everything of mine I'm the place to be and soon you'll see I don't care who leads as long as we move Horizontally Anyone can make you sweat, but I can keep you wet It's creeping around in my head Me holding you down in my bed I can't wait to give you some I'm convinced you need it
