Come On

Lie down
We can do this all night
I know U got a young man
U don't care about me
He's darker than quicksand
He's taller than a tree
What U need is some real lovin'
Instead of these young-ass fools
I got the butter 4 your muffin
Just need the keys 2 the room
Chorus:
Come on, baby
Shake it now
Come on shake it now
Come on, baby
Come on, baby
Shake it now
Come on shake it now
Come on, baby
Come on, baby
Shake it now
Come on shake it now
Come on, baby
Come on, baby
Shake it now
Come on shake it now
We could freeze in London
U could hear me sing
Hear me sing
And if U wanna make love then
Come on
U got 2 wear my ring
Put it on, put it on
Cuz I don't want no mistress
Talk 2 her
I'd much rather be bound
Totally open
Let's find a preacher
So we can get down, down, down
Chorus
Ha, ha - U and your girlfriend
Y'all 2 of a kind
Just runnin' these knuckleheads
3 and 4 at a time
Both of U's want babies
But U still actin' wild
The first rule in makin' one
U can't be no child
Instead of hittin' that remy
Hittin' that remy
Why don't y'all hit the door?
Hit the door
I'll book us on the red eye
And we'll be good 2 go
Good 2 go
And if every life has got a reason
U can be mine
Perfume in the bath, darlin'
Champagne while we dine
Come on, baby
Shake it now
Come on shake it now
Come on, baby
Come on, baby
Shake it now
Come on shake it now
Come on, baby
Come on, baby
Shake it now
Come on shake it now
Come on
Come on, baby
Shake it, shake it, baby
Come on shake it now
Come on
Come on, baby
Yeah
Come on, baby
20 days in London
And U ain't gimme no love
Could it be another brotha man
That U're thinking of?
Or could it be your girlfriend
Who never ever been straight
When I ask U - "Are U hungry?"
Hungry
U say U already ate
Ooh
U can play me if U wanna
But U better let me know
Let me know, baby
I don't need 2 play the good licks
If there ain't gonna be no show
I'm better off sleepin' with my guitar
If U ain't gonna sing
Strapped 2 the body
Makin' love 2 the strings
Yeah, baby
Come on, baby - come on shake it now
Gimme, gimme good love
Instead of talkin' about babies
Come on
If we ain't gonna make love
U can't do nothing 4 me, 4 me
Come on, gimme, gimme good love
Can't do nothing 4 me, baby
Come on
Come on, baby - come on shake it now
Come on, baby
I got the butter 4 your muffin
