I'm hurting, baby, I'm broken down
I need your loving, loving, I need it .
When I'm without you
I'm something
You got me begging
Begging, I'm on my
I don't wanna be your love
I just wanna be deep in your love
And it's killing me when you're .
Ooh, baby,
'Cause I really don't care you are
I just wanna be there where you are
And I gotta get little taste
Your sugar
Yes, please
Won't you and put it down on me
I'm right here, 'cause I need
Little love and little
Yeah you me good loving
Make it alright
Need a little in my life
Your sugar
Yes, please
Won't you and put it down on me
My broken
You pick them up
Don't leave me hanging, hanging
Come me some
When I'm without you
I'm so
You are the one thing
The one thing, I'm for
I don't wanna be your love
I just wanna be deep in your love
And it's killing me when you're .
Ooh, baby,
'Cause I really don't care you are
I just wanna be there where you are
And I gotta get little taste
CHORUS
Yeah
I want that velvet
I want that sugar sweet
Don't let touch it
Unless that somebody's me
I gotta be a man
There ain't no way
'Cause girl you're hotter than southern

I don't wanna play no
I don't gotta be
Don't give all that shy shit
No make up on, that's my
CHORUS (X2)
Modern Song
