Hot pants, hey hot pants uh! Smokin'
Hot pants, smokin' that, hot pants

Take your fine self home

'Cause you got to use just what you got

Hot pants make ya sure of yourself, good Lord
You walk like you got the only lovin' left hey

The girl over there with the hot pants on uh!

Filthy MacNasty all night long
Get down hu! The one over there
With the mini dress ha!
I ain't got time, I still dig that mess
Get down! But I like the hot pants
Hey! I like a hot pants

Ooooh! Bring it home!

Bring it home! Bring it home!




Oh uh! Bring it on home
Bring it on home...
