[Drake:]
Uh, ya
I heard you good with them soft lips
Yeah you know word of mouth,
The square root of 69 is 8 somethin' right
Cuz I've been tryna work it out, oowww
Good weed white wine
Uh I come alive in the night time
Okay, away we go
Only thing we have on is the radio
Ohh 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 that 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 gon' say
[Rihanna:]
Not everybody knows how to work my body
Knows how to make me want it
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
[Chorus]
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
Ooh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work, uh
Oh woah o-oh, Oh woah o-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
Ooh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work, uh
Oh woah o-oh, Oh woah o-oh
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
What's my name, what's my name
[Rihanna:]
Baby you got me
Ain't nowhere that I'd be
Then 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
[Chorus]
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
Ooh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work, uh
Oh woah o-oh, Oh woah o-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
Ooh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work, uh
Oh woah o-oh, Oh woah o-oh
You're so amazing
You took the time to figure me out
That's why you take me
Way past the point of turning me on
You 'bout to break me
I swear you got me losing my mind
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh na na, what's my name
Ooh 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
Ooh na na na na
I need a boy to take it over
Looking for a guy to put in work, uh
Oh woah o-oh, Oh woah o-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
Ooh na na na na

Looking for a guy to put in work, uh
Oh woah o-oh, Oh woah o-oh
