"I Want You" lyrics

"I Want You"

Get back on track, pick me up some bottles of booze
Fickle freshman, probably thinks she's cooler than you
A hay ride at 5, everybody's coming around
So go press your skirt, word is there's a new girl in town
I call shotgun, you can play your R&B tunes
The fellowship time, it always comes a little too soon
The land of the creeps, freshened up from baby-faced shave
Put your eyes on me and I know a place where we can get away

Just say, I want you
Just 'xactly like I used to
'Cause baby, this is only bringing me down

Homeboy's so proud, he finally got the video proof
The night vision shows she was only ducking the truth
It's heavy, I know, the black cat with the gift down below
A choke and a gag, she spit up and came back for more

She said, I want you
Just 'xactly like I used to
And baby, this is only bringing me down
She said, I want you

I want you
Just 'xactly like I used to
And baby, this is only bringing me down
I said, I want you
Just 'xactly like I used to
And baby, this is only bringing me down
