Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
(Uh) What's My Name, What's My Name?
Yeah, I heard you good with them soft lips
Yeah, you know word of mouth
The square root of 69 is 8 some, right?
'Cause I've been tryna work it out, ow
Good weed, white wine
Uh, I come alive in the night time, yeah
Okay, away we go
Only thing we have on is the radio
Oh, let it play
Say you gotta leave but I know you wanna stay
You just waiting on the traffic jam to finish, girl
The things we could do in twenty minutes girl
Say my name, say my name, wear it out
It's getting hot, crack a window, air it out
I can get you through a mighty long day
Soon as you go the text that I write is gonna say
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
What's My Name, What's My Name?
Not everybody knows how to work my body
Knows how to make me want it
But boy, you stay up on it
You got that something
That keeps me so off balance
Baby, you're a challenge
Let's explore your talent
Hey boy, I really wanna see if you can go downtown with a girl like me
Hey boy, I really wanna be with you 'cause you just my type
Oh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work uh
Ohh-oh-oh, ohh-oh-oh
Hey boy, I really wanna see if you can go downtown with a girl like me
Hey boy, I really wanna be with you 'cause you just my type
Oh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work uh
Ohh-oh-oh, ohh-oh-oh
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
What's my name, What's My Name?
Baby, you got me
And ain't nowhere that I'd be
Than with your arms around me
Back and forth you rock me
So I surrender
To every word you whisper
Every door you enter
I, will let you in
Hey boy, I really wanna see if you can go downtown with a girl like me
Hey boy, I really wanna be with you 'cause you just my type
Oh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work uh
Ohh-oh-oh, ohh-oh-oh
You're so amazing, you took the time to figure me out
That's why you take me, way past the point of turnin' me on
You 'bout to break me
I swear you got me losing my mind
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
Oh na na, What's My Name?
What's My Name, What's My Name?
Hey boy, I really wanna see if you can go downtown with a girl like me
Hey boy, I really wanna be with you 'cause you just my type
Oh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work uh
Ohh-oh-oh, ohh-oh-oh
Hey boy, I really wanna see if you can go downtown with a girl like me
Hey boy, I really wanna be with you 'cause you just my type
Oh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work uh
Ohh-oh-oh, ohh-oh-oh
