So I found me a little thing
Wanna keep me up all night
She told me don't be so uptight
She wanna keep up all night
Damn she might kill me
I found me a pretty little thing
Wanna keep me up all night
She says she gonna make things all right
She wanna keep me up all night
Damn she might kill me
I'm in Brazil where the scene so fire
Where the girls and trees can get hotter
Everything that I see talks to me
Can't believe how the girls be walking
I've been here about an hour
They keep saying come talk to me
I keep thinking there's one and they say us three
Standing there getting out of the shower
Turning around showing me the thing got power
Started to converse and I sense a problem
And I'm thinking girl I can always solve them
But she didn't want to hear it
She says she is all mine and I can make him feel it
All along I was thinking it was gonna be her plus two
Now they're looking like Lionel the joke's on you
Next thing I'm feeling is her up and down
While the girls are watching
So I found me a little thing
Wanna keep me up all night
She told me don't be so uptight
She wanna keep up all night
Damn she might kill me
I found me a pretty little thing
Wanna keep me up all night
She says she gonna make things all right
She wanna keep me up all night
Damn she might kill me
I thought there ain't a thing I ain't seen
Until she pulled out a banner for me
She said whatever you want
I know I needed a little vacation
But now I may never go home
So I found me a little thing
Wanna keep me up all night
She told me don't be so uptight
She wanna keep up all night
Damn she might kill me
I found me a pretty little thing
Wanna keep me up all night
She says she gonna make things all right
She wanna keep me up all night
Damn she might kill me
I thought there ain't a thing I ain't seen
Until she pulled out a banner for me
She said whatever you want
I know I needed a little vacation
But now I may never go home
I'm in Brazil where the scene so fire
Where the girls and trees can get hotter
Everything that I see talks to me
Can't believe how the girls be walking
I've been here about an hour
They keep saying come talk to me
I keep thinking there's one and they say us three
Standing there getting out of the shower
Turning around showing me the thing got power
