You don't have to be beautiful To turn me on I just need your body, baby From dusk till dawn You don't need experience To turn me out You just leave it all up to me I'll show you what it's all about You don't have to be rich to be my girl You don't have to be cool to rule my world Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with I just want your extra time and your kiss You got to not talk dirty, baby If you wanna impress me You can't be too flirty, mama I know how to undress me Let me be your fantasy And maybe, you can be mine You just leave it all up to me We could have a good time You don't have to be rich to be my girl You don't have to be cool to rule my world Ain't no particular sign I'm more compatible with I just want your extra time and your kiss I think I'd better dance now Women and girls rule my world I said they rule my world Act your age woman, not your shoe size Maybe we could do the twirl You don't have to watch Dynasty To have an attitude You gotta leave it all up to me My love will be your food You don't have to be rich to be my girl You don't have to be cool to rule my world Ain't no particular sign, I'm more compatible with I just want your extra time and your kiss
