Damn, damn, I'll dance with danger

Are you my alter ego?
Wanna do what you say

And I love how it feels
When you're up in my space
'Cause you're wakin' the beast inside, yeah

Don't know what you're bringin'
You just got me singin'
Hey, Mama, Mama, hey, hey

I'm gonna stay up late, yeah, this is goin' down
Oh damn, damn, I'll dance with danger
Safe to say that I'm in trouble now
Oh, damn, damn, I'll dance with danger
