Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You call me up at two in the morning
Honey, ya burnin' up the telephone wire
You say you can't wait till tomorrow
And that you need me to put out your fire
[Verse 2]
I say, now, now, now, now, sweet darlin'
You sure want a lot for your dime
Then you talk so, so sweet and dirty
You drive me right out of my mind
I wanna tell you no
But there I go again sayin'
[Verse 3]
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
Come and get it while it's hot
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
You always get the best I got
[Verse 4]
I swear that every time is the last time
'Cause I know there ain't no future in this
And then from the heart of the darkness
Comes that call that I can never resist
[Verse 5]
I say, now, now, now, now, sweet darlin'
Why can't you leave me some pride?
Then you whisper, 'cause, baby, I need you
And I go all to pieces inside
I wanna tell you no
But there I go again sayin'
[Verse 6]
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
Come and get it while it's hot
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
You always get the best I got
[Verse 7]
Come and get it
Come and get it
[Verse 8]
I say, now, now, now, now, sweet darlin'
Why can't you leave me some pride?
Then you whisper, 'cause, baby, I need you
And it tears me all to pieces inside
I wanna tell you no
But there I go again sayin'
[Verse 9]
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
Come and get it while it's hot
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
You always get the best I got
[Verse 10]
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
Come and get it while it's hot
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
You always get the best I got
[Verse 11]
Come and get it
[Verse 12]
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
(If you want it)
(Come and get it)
(If you need it)
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
(I think I took a bubble bath)
(Come and get it)
Baby, come and get it
Baby, come and get it
(I'll be waitin')
(Come and get it)
