Oh, oh
Oh
Splash
Listen

Sunday mornin', Holy Water
Runneth over, let me know you
Really want it, slide up on it
Rain down on it, let the water

Purify me, wanna be baptized
Taste those thighs, make 'em touch the sky
Purify me, bring me back to life
Each and every time that I take a dive and I

Splash, splash (yeah)
I'm swimmin' in it right
I'm spendin' every night in your
Splash, splash
The deeper that we go
You feelin' every stroke, oh
Splash (splash), splash (splash)
Splash (splash), splash (ooh)
Splash (ooh), splash
I'm swimmin' in it right
I'm spendin' every night, yeah

Rock that boat, coast to coast
Wet that bed, boy, you know I'll
Ride this wave for a trillion days
Take me all the way, I love it when you

Purify me, wanna be baptized
Taste those thighs, make 'em touch the sky (whoa)
Purify me, bring me back to life
Each and every time that I take a dive and I

Splash (ooh), splash
I'm swimmin' in it right
I'm spendin' every night in your
Splash (splash), splash (yeah yeah)
The deeper that we go
I'm feelin' every stroke, oh
Splash, splash (splash)
Splash (splash), splash (splash)
Splash, splash
I'm swimmin' in it right
I'm spendin' every night, go

Splish, splash, I just stay wet like bubble bath
Better yet a lake, nah, better yet the sink
I'm makin' her squirt and it's all on my sheets
She wet the bed up
Every time I hit it from the back, lil' shorty say, "Bless up"
Just got your hair done, you know it's gon' get messed up
Give you affection, I give you pleasure
Girl, who else you know gon' fuck you better?
Girl I got ninety-nine ways to make you melt
And I can swim like Michael Phelps, I made it

Splash (ooh), splash
I'm swimmin' in it right
I'm spendin' every night in your
Splash (yeah, ooh-ooh, yeah), splash
The deeper that we go
I'm feelin' every stroke, oh
Splash, splash (splash, splash)
Splash, splash (splash)
Splash, splash
I'm swimmin' in it right
I'm spendin' every night in your

Spent the whole weekend swimmin' in the deep end
Splash (ayy), splash (I want it)
Spent the whole weekend (I want it) swimmin' in the deep end (all day)
Damn (all night), just right, I like it

Ayy (whoa)
Backstroke, backstroke, how did we go?
Oh, woo
Splish, splash
Splish, splash
Splish, splash




Splish, splash
Thank you
