Sway With Me
Saweetie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When marimba rhythms starts to play
Dance with me
Make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close
Sway me more

Flashing lights of devotion
Circling in slow motion
I kissed the lips of a potion
And now I'm out in the open
So follow me into the dark
Break up a piece of your heart
Sell it for, sell it for
Sell it for money and cars
Come out wherever you are
My motivations are
All my temptations are
My heart is racing with sensation
With sensation now
I whip my diamonds out
My time is timeless now
I get so high

(Ahh)
The feeling, feeling so supersonic
(Ahh)
I try to stop but I just can't stop it
(Ahh)
Dancing in flames, dancing in flames
Sway with me, sway, sway, sway

When marimba rhythms starts to play
Dance with me
Make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close
Sway me more

(Icy) Yeah, super sly chick (ay)
I be on the list
Always in the midst I'll blow a bag quick
Bad boy want this, bad boy don't miss
Run up on me I bet he get the gist
Harley, Harley catch a quick body
Vroom, vroom, vroom, like I'm ridin' a Harley
But I'm in a 'Rari (skrrt)
Sorry not sorry (sorry)
Didn't say a peep but I know them birds saw me

Tell your people to call me
If it is 'bout that chicken
The most wanted in Gotham
All your diamonds is missin' (where they at?)
Oh, you thought I was kiddin'
This a suicide mission (uh-huh)
You need to make a decision
On what side is you pickin'? (On what side? My side)

(Sway) See it if I want it I'ma take that
(Sway) See it if I want it I'ma take that (I take what I want)
(Sway) See it if I want it I'ma take that
(Sway) See it if I want it I'ma take that
(Sway) Girls like me they don't make that
(Sway) Girls like me they don't make that
(Sway) Girls like me they don't make that (sway with me, sway, sway, sway)

When marimba rhythms starts to play
Dance with me
Make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore
Hold me close
Sway me more

They can see the show is beginnin'
All the devils are singin'
Climbing up on the chandelier
You can't stop me from swingin'
So follow me into the dark
Break up a piece of your heart
Sell it for, sell it for
Sell it for money and cars
Come out wherever you are

When marimba rhythms starts to play
Dance with me
Make me sway
Like a lazy ocean hugs the shore




Hold me close
Sway me more
