Hey motor city where do you get off
Do it in your pontiac with the top down
Just had to get it out and had to get it in
Who needs love and affection
When the party begins
Aah eee - aaah eeee
Hey motor city they tell me you are real
They also say you're crazy with a funk bass feel
Call me anytime anytime you want
The door is always swingin' in this boys club
Aah eee - aaah eeee
Chorus ~
I get lost because of that way you walk
And shake that thing around
Like radios on the ground
That's when i get lost
Oooooo ooooooooo
O'lay some aretha on me
Oooooo ooooooooo
Hey motor city i see you hate to smoke
It's not the kind of thing that you wanna bring home
Because of your old man yeah he won't understand
That sometimes a women just needs a new man
Aah eee - aaah eeee
Chorus
Oooooo ooooooooo
O'lay some aretha on me
Oooooo ooooooooo
Hey motor city i just wanna say
Where were you hidin' when i wanted to play
Now my weakest link fell off of the chain
And i can't have you and you're to blame
Chorus
Oooooo ooooooooo
O'lay some aretha on me
On me
Oooooo ooooooooo
I get lost
Oooooo ooooooooo
O'lay some aretha on me
Oooooo ooooooooo
When i get lost
Oooooo ooooooooo
O'lay some aretha on me
On me
Oooooo ooooooooo
Thats when i get lost
Oooooo ooooooooo
O'lay some aretha on me
On me
Oooooo ooooooooo
On me
Thats when i get lost
Oooooo ooooooooo
O'lay some aretha on me
