One, and two, and three, and
Mmm
Hennessy, I'ma need this liquid courage
All of it, oh, yeah
And I seen a man, seen a man
Sat at the bar, oh, yeah
And for a while, I'ma kiss goodbye my worries
All of 'em, oh, yeah
No dinner, man, I started seein' stars, oh
The sad, sad way to learn how
Skirt's too short, I got my curves out
I'm a little too lit, so call the last round
I get all dressed up
To go ahead, let myself down
So you could just hold me like my dress, skin-tight
We could pretend this is Saturday night
It's alright, it's alright, mmm
So tell me who's next up? (Tell me who's next up)
To come on here and waste my time, mmm (To come on here and waste my time)
So you could just hold me like my dress, skin-tight
We could pretend this is Saturday night
It's alright, it's alright
It's alright, yeah, yeah
I'm about to tell you I think you're funny
Oh, honey, oh, no
I'm drinkin', I'm drinkin', I'm lovin' the light
Oh, I don't care if you don't call, if you don't want me
You're lucky, you can try
You won't see the real me when you look in my eyes, oh
The sad, sad way to learn how
Skirt's too short, I got my curves out
I'm a little too lit, so call the last round
I get all dressed up (I get all dressed up)
To go ahead, let myself down (To go ahead, let myself down)
So you could just hold me like my dress, skin-tight
We could pretend this is Saturday night
It's alright, it's alright, mmm
So tell me who's next up? (So tell me who's next up)
To come on here and waste my time, mmm (To come on here and waste my time)
So you could just hold me like my dress, skin-tight
We could pretend this is Saturday night
It's alright, it's alright
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh, oh, motion
Flowin' slow-motion (Motion)
Think that I should maybe take a love potion
If I put it in my drink, would you sip some?
Take a little sip, and you should see what I become
This ain't love, I was hopin' (Hopin')
Hopin' we could find somethin' more
Feels better when it means somethin'
Yeah, I just want to feel somethin'
So I get all dressed up (I get all dressed up)
To go ahead, let myself down (To go ahead, let myself down)
I'm hopin' you hold me like my dress, skin-tight
Like the dress that I wear on a Saturday night
It's a Tuesday, but I won't tell if you don't
So tell me who's next up? (Oh)
To come on here and waste my time, mmm
So you could just hold me like my dress, skin-tight
We could pretend this is Saturday night
It's alright, it's alright
That was intense
