Babe break me off a piece of your love
Once it's on I can't seem to get enough
So keep it up Keep it comin' uh What
Break me off some baby
You're wicked, Baby So do what's right
Break me off a piece of that love tonight
Like a steel guitar that I love to play
Everyone loves Jesus on judgment day
You get hot just like gasoline
In your cashmere shirt and your cut-off jeans
I've been workin' all day Here's what I made
Baby what you say Break me off some
Babe break me off a piece of your love
Once it's on I can't seem to get enough
So keep it up Keep it comin' uh What
Break me off some baby
(Repeat chorus)
Down in Mexico there's a man I know
Who gave away his future for a piece of gold
He washed his hands in Noah's flood
Now those mountains they're just red as blood
I left this place just to come with you
Walkin' off the mesa in some dead man's shoes
I've been workin' all day Here's what I made
Baby what you say Break me off some
Babe break me off a piece of your love
Once it's on I can't seem to get enough
So keep it up Keep it comin' uh What
Break me off some baby
(Repeat chorus)
Eie yie yie yie yie yie yie
Eie yie yie yie yie yie yie
I like the way you're movin' on the dance floor baby
I like the way you're moving' on the dance floor baby
Shake shake shake 'til my eyes are sore baby
Shake shake shake 'til my eyes are sore baby
Bounce bounce bounce 'til your body is sore baby
Bounce bounce bounce 'til your body is sore baby
Feel the heat Moe Z Put his hands on
Babe break me off a piece of your love
Once it's on I can't seem to get enough
So keep it up Keep it comin' uh What
Break me off some baby
(Repeat chorus)
