No you can’t get her if
Ain’t got plenty cake.

Look like this size

Thick thighs.[Ciara]
I can do it big
I can do it long
I can do it whenever or however
You wantI can do it up and down

She ride her like a rollercoaster
Soon as I get her to the top she screams.
I put her out like a lite,
She’ll be out for the night
When her head hit the pillows sweet dreamsWake her up ’bout 30mins later,
Calling me the terminator, let’s go again
Red zone, imma get her first down
Call me luda true
Breeze I throw it in.
Touch down, (touch down) he scores (he scores),
Ludacris the MVP (VP)With a rack like that and a back like that
Cici better CC me.
Cause them legs just keep on going
So I gotta put her to bed.
Let the 808 thump, and beat go bump
Cause she ride it like a thoroughbredHe love they way I ride it (x3)
