Yeah
C′mon girl

We don't have much time

Seven days in a week, girl
Just tryna get it on
Tryna get a lil′ me girl

Talkin' 'bout me girl

I can give it in the morning
I can give it in the day
I can give it when you′re lonely
I can give it many ways (yeah!)
No we don′t have to play the fool
All day, all night, all right
The fool all day, all night, all right
'Cause I don′t have the time
To be with you every single day (yeah!)

But I can give it when you want it
I can give it in the day (yeah!)
I can give it when you're lonely
I can give it many ways (yeah)
No we don′t have to play the fool
All day, all night, all right
