Ooohhh Baby - Original Version
You're the kind of girl that everybody's warned me about
You're the kind of person that everybody's here staring at
But now you're a topless dancer working out of a bar on Times-square
And everybody wishes you were back in the massage parlor back there
Only baby knew (do you remember?)
You make me go
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Hey, baby, ooh, ooh
It's very funny asking me why they keep the lights on down so low
Well, yesterday's chase today is competition
Or didn't you know?
And all fluorescent lighting make it so your wrinkles they don't show
And it's very funny the way that 20 bucks an hour can-uh go
If you don't make me go, now, now, now
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Baby, ooh, ooh, ooh
Everybody wondered 'bout you when you were seen
Drinking some beer
You got here from Ohio and your mother said
You'd hooked her in the real near
That's the way it goes now
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Baby, ooh, ooh-ooh
Hey, shake your bones now, mama
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Baby, baby, ooh
Walk it now (ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
Get down (ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
You're the kind of person that everybody's here staring at
But now you're a topless dancer working out of a bar on Times-square
And everybody wishes you were back in the massage parlor back there
Only baby knew (do you remember?)
You make me go
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Hey, baby, ooh, ooh
It's very funny asking me why they keep the lights on down so low
Well, yesterday's chase today is competition
Or didn't you know?
And all fluorescent lighting make it so your wrinkles they don't show
And it's very funny the way that 20 bucks an hour can-uh go
If you don't make me go, now, now, now
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, baby, ooh
Ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh
Baby, ooh, ooh, ooh

Get down (ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
(Ooh, baby, ooh, ooh, baby, ooh)
