Let's go
Baby, I just want you to be mine, hm (woo)
Won't you give me a bit of your time? Oh, woah
Chasin' you, no, I won't stop tryin'
Just meet me at the borderline (exclusive)
You play hard-to-get
But I know you want me, too (woo)
Ain't out here looking for other dudes
So I'ma keep it tight for you, mm
You know I'm the wifey type, babe (woo)
You know I be one of a kind, oh, woah
Once you tastin' my ice cream (ice cream)
I bet you won't ever leave (won't leave)
I know it's hard to believe (believe)
Boy, you got me all on my knees
(Light it up, though, light it up, though) you're playin' too hard for me
(Light it up, though, light it up, though) stop playin' too hard for me (let's go)
Baby, I just want you to be mine, hm (woo)
Won't you give me a bit of your time? Oh, woah
Chasin' you, no, I won't stop tryin'
Just meet me at the borderline (woo-ooh)
Seems like I'm comin' on strong
But I don't want this time to pass (woo)
I know you gotta lotta chicks hollerin' at you
But I bet they cannot last, mm-mm
You know I'm the wifey type, babe (woo)
You know I be one of a kind, oh, woah (let's go(
Once you tastin' my ice cream (ice cream)
I bet you won't ever leave (won't leave)
I know it's hard to believe (believe)
But you got me all on my knees
(Light it up, though, light it up, though) you're playin' too hard for me
(Light it up, though, light it up, though) stop playin' too hard for me
Baby, I just want you to be mine, hm (woo)
Won't you give me a bit of your time? Oh, woah (haha)
Chasin' you, no, I won't stop tryin'
Just meet me at the borderline
Uh, I'm like, you got me so on a chase
Got me feelin' so out of place
Think 'bout you all of my days
Wish you'd chew on me like fresh grapes
Not tryna cuff you or crowd your place
I'm tryna find cute words just to say
"Dang, you fine, and look at that face"
At the borderline, beside me, you lay (woo)
Baby, I just want you to be mine
Won't you give me a bit of your time? Oh, woah
Chasin' you, no, I won't stop tryin'
Just meet me at the borderline
