[Español]

[English]

I'm gonna get down with my baby

I'm gonna get down with my baby

And I'm gonna get down with her soon

And I'm gonna get down with her soon

She's on her way and I just can't wait

She's on her way and I just can't wait

She'll be back by this afternoon

She'll be back by this afternoon

Woah, I'm gonna get down with my baby

Wow, I'm gonna get down with my baby

I've been waitin' for this moment, baby

I've been waiting for this moment, baby

Knowing all along that it was goin' to happen

Knowing all along that it was gonna happen

Even through the moments of doubt, baby

Even through the moments of doubt, baby

She'll be back by this afternoon

She'll be back by this afternoon

I knew you'd come through

I knew you'd come through

Woah, I'm gonna get down with my baby

Wow, I'm gonna get down with my baby

You owed it to yourself, baby

You owed it to yourself, baby

And I'm gonna get down with her soon

And I'm gonna get down with her soon

You were with him for way too long

You were with him for way too long

She's on her way and I just can't wait

She's on her way and I just can't wait

Trapped in you own fears for almost eight years

Trapped in your own fears for almost eight years

She'll be back by this afternoon

She'll be back by this afternoon

Woah I'm gonna get down with my baby

Wow, I'm gonna get down with my baby

And all you had to do was wake up and walk out

And all you had to do was wake up and walk out

And I'm gonna get down with her soon

And I'm gonna get down with her soon

'Cause I was here waitin' all along

'Cause I was here waiting all along

She's on her way and I just can't wait

She's on her way and I just can't wait

(And I just can't wait)

(And I just can't wait)

She'll be back by this afternoon

She'll be back by this afternoon

And now you know

And now you know

Woah, I'm gonna get down with my baby

Wow, I'm gonna get down with my baby

Now you know that you belong to yourself

Now you know that you belong to yourself

And I'm gonna get down with her soon

And I'm gonna get down with her soon

Not to him, not to me

Not to him, not to me

She's on her way and I just can't wait

She's on her way and I just can't wait

(And I just can't wait)

(And I just can't wait)

She'll be back by this afternoon

She'll be back by this afternoon

And you chose me

And you chose me

Woah, I'm gonna get down with my baby (thank you)

Wow, I'm gonna get down with my baby (thank you)
