Dancing With A Rich Man
R. Kelly · R. [1998]
Entrea
Ay, tantas cosas que quiero
Decirte yo quiero
Hacer por ti
But first we must dancce
Private cotillion style
One lady's fantasy
Trip to Milan tonight
Exclusive shopping spree
Mansions await, your scent
That smells just like treasure
Dining with me in suites
That overlooks the shore
As we move, then we touch, then we dip
(Dancin' with a rich man)
As we move, then we touch, then we dip
(Shall we dance, shall we dance, shall we dance)
As we turn, then we stare, then we kiss
(Dancin' with a rich man)
As we turn, then we stare, then we kiss
Kissing the feet of you
While listening to Bonsois
And your angelic brace
Wearing Victoria
Passionate love with you
Hearing you "Oh, oui oui"
Some antique jewelry from
Kenshire's gallery
And when you elevate
Like visions of grandeur
Mademoiselle and me
Behind the villa doors
Sunsets on yellow sand
That's where we rendezvous
Chapels of Valentine
Is just to name a few
Ay, tantas cosas que quiero
Decirte yo quiero
Hacer por ti
But first we must dancce
Private cotillion style
One lady's fantasy
Trip to Milan tonight
Exclusive shopping spree
Mansions await, your scent
That smells just like treasure
Dining with me in suites
That overlooks the shore
As we move, then we touch, then we dip
(Dancin' with a rich man)
As we move, then we touch, then we dip
(Shall we dance, shall we dance, shall we dance)
As we turn, then we stare, then we kiss
(Dancin' with a rich man)
As we turn, then we stare, then we kiss
Kissing the feet of you
While listening to Bonsois
And your angelic brace
Wearing Victoria
Passionate love with you
Hearing you "Oh, oui oui"
