(Xl Eagle made it)
(Og Parker)

She got humps in her bump, dunk in her trunk
Back that ass up, feel up on it like, beep, beep
Girl, take it out, go a little bit harder
Fucking with the lights off, leaving on the TV
Gettin' me started, lickin' on your body
Tellin' me not to say nothin' when you wanna see me
Oh, I, oh, I, my lips are sealed
Baby, you gotta put in work
Gotta put in work, work, work
If you want me to put you first, yeah
Put that pussy on me, what I deserve
You gotta put in work

Panties on the floor, we don't need clothes
Can I get a repeat of the show?
Young Jacquees, in your sheets
Pop in and see me, ride it slow
No 9 to 5, but you put in work
Ooh, let me put it in drive
All gas when I'm in that, skrrt (Skrrt)
Ignore your phone tell your friends, "Call back"
When you leave to go home, turn around, come back
Silk sheets on the bed
I know you just got your hair done and it's late
Don't be scared
I'll get it re-done, lil' bae, you know I'm paid

You come first, yeah
And that's for sex and life
Whatever works, yeah
I'll rip your bra off
You rip off my shirt, yeah
You mine as soon as you step on my turf
I beat it like it's percussion come let me put in work (Put in work)

She got humps in her bump, dunk in her trunk
Back that ass up, feel up on it like, beep, beep
Girl, take it out, go a little bit harder
Fucking with the lights off, leaving on the TV
Gettin' me started, lickin' on your body
Tellin' me not to say nothin' when you wanna see me
Oh, I, oh, I, my lips are sealed
Baby, you gotta put in work (put in work)
Gotta put in work, work, work
If you want me to put you first, yeah
Put that pussy on me, what I deserve
You gotta put in work

You keep calling me over
Hope you not with the games, cut you off it's all over
Late nights I'm never sober, yeah
On my car call an Uber, I don't wanna drive
Yeah, I've been ODin'
Your body's is what I'm missin'
You're bad and you know it
And I'ma need you to show it, show it

Show it, show it, show
Are you ready for me now?
And ride around on this merry-go-round
Baby, let's make it official

She got humps in her bump, dunk in her trunk
Back that ass up, feel up on it like, beep, beep
Girl, take it out, go a little bit harder
Fucking with the lights off, leaving on the TV
Gettin' me started, lickin' on your body
Tellin' me not to say nothin' when you wanna see me
Oh, I, oh, I, my lips are sealed
Baby, you gotta put in work (put in work)
Gotta put in work, work, work
If you want me to put you first, yeah
Put that pussy on me, what I deserve
You gotta put in work

Oh, put in work for me
I want it
Baby, do your thing and
Put in work for me all night
I wanna feel it slowly
Ah, ah, baby




Ah, ah, baby
You gotta put in work

@erickscherzy1903

yes it reminded me of this song

@kandikane923

First time hearing this song, Ciara and Chris new song β€œHow We Roll” bought me here and I like that that one much better than this one. This sounds more house music and the new song has a dance and smooth R&B vibe.

@booker1437

Glad I found a recent comment

@shelookstome8727

Indian chorus is from the song 'Kehna Hi Kya' from the 1995 film 'Bombay'. Wonder what made her use it!!

@supersingersoorya8183

Danja probably thought it was a good idea
