I wanna know do you have style

The kinda style that makes a woman wanna lose her mind

And I wanna know can you make it worth my time

Or will it be like all the rest, won't give your best

Just fall behind



'cause I wanna know what turns you on

Can you keep the lovin' strong

'cause with me you don't have to ask

'cause I'm the roni that'll give you what you need



Do you think that you could swing a little time with me

Swing it, I'll be all that you need

Do you think that you could swing a little time with me

Swing it, I'll be all that you need



There's not a thing that I won't do

Once I find the man that gives me love that kind of cool

Takie in a night by candlelight

I want to be to you the one you never had before



'cause I wanna know what turns you on

Can you keep the lovin' strong

'cause with me you don't have to ask

'cause I'm the roni that'll give you what you need



Hook 2 times



'cause I wanna know what turns you on

Can you keep the lovin' strong

'cause with me you don't have to ask

'cause I'm the roni that'll give you what you need



Swing it, swing it, swing it with me

Swing it, swing it, swing it with me

Swing it, swing it, swing it with me

Swing it, swing it, swing it with me



Hook 2 times
