Coming In Hot
Coco Montoya Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm coming home black and blue
Chasin' down every payday
Lord I need them to see me through
Baby I'll be home by midnight
Yes I'm comin' in hot for you.
Woman you got me hungry
Thinkin' about all your lovin'
If you want me to beg I might
I think I might
Now baby get your fire burnin'
Cuz I'm comin' in hot tonight
Comin' in hot tonight
Here I come
Woooo!
Steerin' on down the runway
You know my plane is overdue
Gotta get back to LA
Gonna love you like it's something new
Baby pick me up at midnight
Cuz I'm coming in hot for you
500 miles an hour girl
Yes I'm comin' in hot for you
Comin' in hot for you
