Come on and rock me, ooh, girl
Oh...ooh...oh...ooh...ooh...oh...
Come on and rock me, ooh, girl
Hey, girl, long time no see
Do you have a little time to spend with me
I wanna know what's been going on
Your hair, perfume you wear
Brings back memories, oh, of you and me
You look so fine, you blow my mind
All over again, ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...ooh...
So much has happened in my life
Since we parted
What about you
Now I've got myself together
And I know just what I want
And right now,I know that it's you, you
Rock me tonight for old times sake
Would you baby, hey
Roll with me tonight for old times sake
Ooh...ooh...ooh...oh...oh...
Ooh, girl, I'm gonna love you real good
Come on let me do it now, you know I could
I really miss the way you squeeze and moan
And call out my name, woo...woo...woo...you can call me, baby
I remember you love to take your time
To get in the mood, ooh...ooh...ooh...yes, you do, yeah
But once you're in the mood
You like to go straight to the groove, oh...oh...oh...oh...oh...yes, you do, girl

When I get through lovin' you, girl
Fire and desire

The opening verse establishes this as the singer asks the girl to "rock" him again for old times' sake, indicating that they have been apart for some time. He reminisces about their relationship when they were together, how beautiful she is and the memories of how she looked, smelled and acted. The singer talks about taking his time and the way she gets into the mood, only to go straight to the groove once she's there. He then mentions that it has been a long time since they spent a night together, saying "I miss you" before promising that "fire and desire will burn in you forever more".
The chorus repeats the desire for a reunion and to be "rocked" and "rolled" again. The second verse reiterates the singer's desire for the girl, saying that he has now sorted himself out and that he knows what he wants. He asks what has been happening in her life since they parted and then invites her to come rock with him, where he promises to give her the love that she deserves.
