[English]

We gon' get it on

We gon' get it on

And we gon' get it on

We gon' get it on

I know what you want

I know what you want

Lil' mama want her hair pulled

Legs pushed back

Only like a Rottweiler and a kitty cat

She want it wild

Shawty wanna scream

Only from the front, back, side, and in between

Want it all the time, she a fiend

So good, I see it in my dreams

She wanna arch her back when I hit it

When I do it mama wanna holla get it

She said

Take it slow, put it down on me

I said jump on it, ride like a pony

Lights down low, time to get naughty

Lights down low, time to, time to get naughty

Take it slow, put it down on me

Baby jump on it, ride like a pony

Lights down low, time to get naughty

Lights down low, lights down low

And we gon' get it on

We gon' get it on

I know what you want

I know what you want

She said I'm going too fast, take it slow

So I slapped her on the ass, start pullin' on her hair

She nibbled to my ear like boy it's good

She love the way I'm tellin' how a nigga keep it hood

Give it to me daddy, that's what she keeps screamin, give it to me daddy

She love the way I beat it, she wish that I could repeat it

I got her in a trance, man I'm even fuckin' friends

Got 'her blowing like the wind she's shaking, got me impatient

Back and forth pacin', man I need my medication

Lights down low so we gettin' naughty

Making fuck faces, she ride me like a Harley

Take it slow, put it down on me

I said jump on it, ride like a pony

Lights down low, time to get naughty

Lights down low, time to, time to get naughty

Take it slow, put it down on me

Baby jump on it, ride like a pony

Lights down low, time to get naughty

Lights down low, lights down low

And we gon' get it on

We gon' get it on

I know what you want

I know what you want (Waka Flocka)
