Spent twenty four hours
I need more hours with you (With you)
We spent the weekend getting even ooh

Making things right between us
(You know how it is, ay)
But now it's all good babe
Roll that window down babe play me close

'Cause girls like you run 'round with guys like me
'Till sun down when I come through
I need a girl like you yeah, yeah
Girls like you love fun and yeah me too
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I need a girl like you yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I need a girl like you

I spent last night on the last flight to you, you
Took a whole day up trying to get up way up, ooh
(Way)
We spent the daylight trying to
Make things right between us (Between us)
But now it's all good babe roll
That window down babe play me close
(Yeah now 5, 6 7 8)

'Cause girls like you run 'round with guys like me
'Till sun down when I come through
I need a girl like you yeah, yeah
Girls like you love fun and yeah me too

Maybe I'm barely alive
Maybe you've taking my stuff
For the last time yeah
Maybe I know that I'm wrong
Maybe I know you're the one
Maybe you thinking it's better if you drive ooh

Not too long ago I was dancing for dollars
Know it's really real if I let you meet my mama
You don't want a girl like me i'm too crazy
But every other girl you meet is fugazy
I'm sure them other girls were nice enough
But you need someone to spice it up
So who you gonna call Shorty, Shorty
Come and rev it up like a harley, harley
Why is this best fruit always forbidden
I'm coming to you now because
Your over the limit
The red light, red light stop
I don't play when it comes to my heart
I don't really want a white horse and a carriage
I'm thinking more of white porsches and carats
I need you right here cause everytime you call
I sing with the city like you play with your guitar

'Cause girls like you run 'round with guys like me
'Till sun down when I come through
I need a girl like you yeah, yeah
Girls like you love fun and yeah me too
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I need a girl like you yeah, yeah





Ooh ooh
