Shake You Down Lyrics

Oh hoo
Yeah!

Girl - I've been watching you
From so far across the floor now, baby
That's nothing new
I've watched you - so many times before now, baby
I see that look in your eyes
(looking in your eyes)
And what its telling me

And you know - oooh girl that I'm not shy
I'm glad you picked up - on my telepathy, now baby
You read my mind (You know you did)
Girl I wanna shake you down (well, well)
I can give you all the loving you need
(I'm gonna love you)

Come on let me take you down (oh, baby)
We'll go all the way to Heaven
Ooooh - I've been missing you
And the way you make me feel inside
What can I do?
I can tell you've got your pride now, baby (ooh)

Coooome to me (well, well)
Let me ease your mind (oh babe)
I've got the remedy, heh, yes I do
Now give me just a little - tiiiime

You read my mind
Girl I wanna shake you down
(I wanna rock you down)
I can give you all the loving you need

(I'm gonna love you)
Come on let me take you down

(well, well)
We'll go all the way to Heaven
...
Girl - I've been missing you
And you know - its funny Everytime I get to feelin this way
I wish I had you near me
I wanna reach out and touch you
...
I can't stop thinking of the things we do
The way you call me baby when I'm holding you
I shake and I shiver when I know your near
Then you whisper in my ear (oh, baby - well, well)
...
You read my mind (You know you did)
Girl I wanna shake you down (oh, baby)
I can give you all the loving you need (ohhhh)
Come on let me take you down (well, well)
We'll go all the way to Heaven
(Eenie meenie minee moe)
You read my mind
(Come on, girl, let's shock this show)
Girl I wanna shake you down
(ohhhh)
I can give you all the loving you need
(Roses are red & violets are blue)
Come on let me take you down
(I'm gonna rock this world for you) (hey, baby)
We'll go all the way to Heaven
You read my mind
Girl, I wanna shake you down
I can give you all the loving you need...
(fade out)
