I'm a Slave 4 U
Britney Spears · Britney
I know I may be young but I've got feelings too
And I need to do what I feel like doing
So let me go and just listen
All you people look at me like I'm a little girl
Well did you ever think it'd be ok for me to step into this world?
Always saying, "Little girl, don't step into the club"
Well I'm just tryin' to find out why, 'cause dancing's what I love, yeah
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
I know I may come off quiet
I may come off shy
But I feel like talkin', feel like dancin' when I see this guy
What's practical, what's logical, what the hell, who cares
All I know is I'm so happy when you're dancing there
CHORUS
I'm a slave for you
I cannot hold it, I cannot control it
I'm a slave for you
I won't deny it, I'm not trying to hide it
Baby, don't you wanna dance up on me
To another time and place
Oh, baby, don't you wanna dance up on me
Leaving behind my name and age
Like that. You like that?
Yeah. Now watch me
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
I really wanna dance tonight with you
I really wanna do what you want me to
I really wanna dance tonight with you
I really wanna do what you want me to
Baby, don't you wanna dance up on me
To another time and place
Oh, baby, don't you wanna dance up on me
Leaving behind my name and age
CHORUS - repeat
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
CHORUS - repeat
And I need to do what I feel like doing
So let me go and just listen
All you people look at me like I'm a little girl
Well did you ever think it'd be ok for me to step into this world?
Always saying, "Little girl, don't step into the club"
Well I'm just tryin' to find out why, 'cause dancing's what I love, yeah
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
Get it, get it, get it, get it
I know I may come off quiet
I may come off shy
But I feel like talkin', feel like dancin' when I see this guy
What's practical, what's logical, what the hell, who cares
