I love to love you baby.
I'm feelin' sexy
I wanna hear you say my name boy
If you can reach me
You can feel my burning flame
Baby the minute I feel your energy
Your vibe's just taken over me
Start feelin' so crazy babe
Lately, I feel the funk coming over me
I don't know what's gotten into me
The rhythm's got me feelin' so crazy babe
Tonight I'll be your naughty girl
I'm callin' all my girls
We're gonna turn this party out
I know you want my body
Tonight I'll be your naughty girl I'm
Callin' all my girls
I see you look me up and down
And I came to party
You're so sexy,
Tonight I am all yours boy
The way your body
Moves across the floor
You got me feelin n-a-s-t-y, I just might take you home with me
Baby the minute i feel your energy
The vibe's just taken over me
Start feelin' so crazy babe
Lately, I feel the funk coming over me
I don't know what's gotten into me
The rhythm's got me feelin' so crazy babe
Tonight I'll be your naughty girl
I'm callin' all my girls
We're gonna turn this party out
I know you want my body
Tonight I'll be your naughty girl I'm
Callin' all my girls
I see you look me up and down
And I came to party
I love to love you baby (I love to love you baby)
I love to love you baby (I love to love you baby)
I love to love you baby (I love to love you baby)

Callin' all my girls
I see you look me up and down
And I came to party
Tonight I'll be your naughty girl (I'll be you naughty girl)

In Beyoncé Knowles's song Naughty Girl, the lyrics revolve around the singer's sensuality and desire for intimacy. The song showcases the singer's confidence and willingness to take control of the situation, making it clear that she knows what she wants and isn't afraid to ask for it. She feels empowered when she is able to feel the energy (and presumably the attraction) from another person, which sets the stage for a physical encounter. The chorus "Tonight I'll be your naughty girl" repeats throughout the song, reinforcing the singer's assertiveness and alluding to a night of passionate and potentially risqué behavior.
The verses alternate between describing the singer's sensations and thoughts, and her interactions with others at a party. She's feeling "kind of n-a-s-t-y" and "crazy," highlighting her impulsive side and desire to let loose. Meanwhile, she notices how others are looking at her and seems to revel in the attention. The repeated phrase "I'm callin' all my girls" reinforces the idea that the singer is in control and surrounded by her own support system.
