Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I met this boy in Molly town
He said a boom, a boom, boom, boom
He said he'd like to buy my round
I said okay, but you can't buy me, baby
You look just like my favorite sound
So I stay, ah-la-la-la
Askin' if I was allowed to come and play
The rest is history
[Verse 2]
What is a girl like me to do? ooh, ooh
Not for a second, I can leave you, ooh, ooh
Been here a month and I know your smile, ooh, ooh
My heart is thinkin' I'll stay a while, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 3]
The weeks went on and the months fell out
Of my way, what can I sing of it
You swore you'd always be around
If I stay, so I'm stayin'
I hold my plans to the god of fate
And all he say was boom, boom, boom
You're the point to the love I found
In a way, don't think I'm crazy
[Verse 4]
What is a girl like me to do, ooh, ooh
Not for a second, I can leave you, ooh, ooh
Been here a month and I know your smile, ooh, ooh
My heart is thinkin' I'll stay a while, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 5]
Got my camera, got my six
Let me go I'm leavin' it
Run from life fast, I've known it
'Cause you got me, got me, got me transfixed
Thought I'd travel far away
But you call me half the way
Down in Bordeaux, I would stay
'Cause you got me, got me, got me good, babe
[Verse 6]
What is a girl like me to do, ooh, ooh
Not for a second I can leave you, ooh, ooh
Been here a month and I know your smile, ooh, ooh
My heart is thinkin' I'll stay a while, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
[Verse 7]
I'll never let you go
Boy, you're my comfort child
I'll never let you go
No, no, oh
[Verse 8]
I see our love's been a locket
There's no talk if I stop it
You just don't want to see me go
Every look I've been clockin'
On your door I've been knockin'
Get your life and, baby, let's go, go
[Verse 9]
I met this boy in Molly town
He said a boom, a boom, boom, boom
He said he'd like to buy my round
I said okay, a boom, boom, boom
