Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Boom boom, boom boom
I'm gonna shoot you right down
Right off your feet
Take you home with me
Put you in my house
[Verse 2]
Boom boom, boom boom
How, how, how, how
Mmm, mmm, mmm
Mmm, mmm, mmm
I love to see you strut
Up and down this floor
When you talkin' to me
That baby talk
I like it like that
Oh, yeah
[Verse 3]
Talk that talk
Walk that walk
[Verse 4]
Won't you walk that walk?
And talk that talk
And whisper in my ear
Tell me that you love me
I love that talk
[Verse 5]
When you talk like that
You knocks me out
Right off my feet
Ho, ho, ho, ho
[Verse 6]
Oh, talk that talk
And walk that walk
Oh, yes
Oh, yes
Talk that talk
