Lyrics

(De ru lo.) It’s too hot to sleep.

I got the sheets on the floor, noth ing on me.

And I can’t take it no more; it’s a hun dred de grees.

I got one foot out the door.

Where are my keys?

’Cause I got ta leave, yeah.

In the back of the cab,

I tip the driv er a head of time.

“Get me there fast.”

I got your bod y on my mind, I want it bad.

Ooh, just the thought of you gets me so high,

so high.

Girl, you’re the one I want to (Cm)want me.

And if you want me, girl, you (Ab)got me.

There’s noth ing (Absus2)I know I would n’t (Cm)do, (I would n’t do) just to get up next to you.

Girl, you’re the one I want to (Cm)want me.

And if you want me, girl, you (Ab)got me.

There’s noth ing (Absus2)I know I would n’t (Cm)do, (I would n’t do) just to get up next to you, (Eb)(Ooh,

Fell to the floor,
