Yeah-eah-eah-eh
This is the thirteenth day of waitin'
The second long weekend
These liberties you've taken
'Ve gotta end, oh yeah
This distance you've been keepin'
Grows wider everyday
Time is runnin' out
There's nothin' left to say, oh woah
(Ooh-ooh) innocent child
That's what I once (ooh-ooh) believed
(Ooh-ooh) but now I know better
And I ain't gonna let you (aah-aah aah-aah) play that game with me
I'm tellin' you mama
'M Gonna get lowdown and dirty, run wild in the night
Lowdown and dirty, this time I'll do it right
Loving every minute, makin' up for lost time
I'll get, lowdown, lowdown and dirty
A little time to do some thinkin'
Some searchin' of the soul
I never knew your heart
Could be so cold, oh yeah
You're driven by ambition
'N' you want the best that you can get
Ambition leads you blindly
If you let it babe, and I guess you let it now
(Ooh-ooh) that innocent smile
It fooled me (ooh-ooh) all the way
(Ooh-ooh) it drew me in
But now there's gonna (aah-aah aah-aah) be some hell to pay
Woah, gonna be hell to pay
'M gonna get lowdown and dirty, and break every rule, yeah
Lowdown and dirty, nobody gonna treat me like a fool
Runnin' free and easy, now I'm out on the loose
I'll get, lowdown and dirty, (lowdown and dirty) woah lowdown and dirty, tonight
Oh ooh-woah ooh-woah oh
(Ooh-ooh) such an innocent child
You fooled me (ooh-ooh) all the way
(Ooh-ooh) you drew me in
But now there's gonna (aah-aah aah-aah) be some hell to pay
Ooh-woah ooh-woah oh-oh oh-oh
'M gonna get lowdown and dirty, run wild in the night
Lowdown and dirty, do it good, do it right
You see I've been reaching out for somethin', that's been missin' in my life
'Ve gotta get, lowdown and dirty, (lowdown and dirty) lowdown and dirty, (tonight)
Lowdown and dirty, gotta get, gotta get, gotta get
Lowdown and dirty, lowdown and dirty
Lowdown and dirty, (lowdown and dirty)
If you could see me now darlin'
You'd see me flyin' high
(Ooh, lowdown and dirty) goin' crazy
Lowdown and dirty
You know down and dirty, lowdown and dirty
Oh-ooooooooooh, (lowdown and dirty) yeah-eah-eah-e
