Turn it up
Baby, we don't have to say goodbye
Let's burn it up

The way how she bubble it permanent
Make mi wah give her di firmament
Take her back home fi di tournament
To party without fun dat nuh make no sense

Have her fren dem a drink like delinquents

Mi nah stop drink 'til di party end
Mi buss bottle 'til di party end
Mi nah stop from drink 'til di party end
Non stopple an we nah pretend
Order two more shot make we do it again
From the topple 'til the party end
We nah stop from drink 'til di party end
Cîroc apple an we nah pretend
Order two more shot make we do it again
More bottle

But don't be alarmed
When the lights come on
'Cause that only means
You coming home with me (straight up, girl)
You're turnin' me on
And I know what you want
