  • "We should take this back to my place"
    That's what she said right to my face
    'Cause I want you bad
    Yeah, I want you, baby
    I've been thinking 'bout it all day
    And I hope you feel the same way, yeah
    'Cause I want you bad
    Yeah, I want you, baby

    Slow, slow hands
    Like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry
    No, no chance
    That I'm leaving here without you on me
    I, I know
    Yeah, I already know that there ain't no stoppin'
    Your plans and those
    Slow hands (woo)
    Slow hands

    I just wanna take my time
    We could do this, baby, all night, yeah
    'Cause I want you bad
    Yeah, I want you, baby

    Slow, slow hands
    Like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry
    No, no chance
    That I'm leaving here without you on me
    I, I know
    Yeah, I already know that there ain't no stoppin'
    Your plans and those
    Slow hands (woo)

    Fingertips puttin' on a show
    Got me now and I can't say no
    Wanna be with you all alone
    Take me home, take me home
    Fingertips puttin' on a show
    Can't you tell that I want you, baby, yeah

    Slow hands
    Like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry
    No, no chance
    That I'm leaving here without you on me
    I, I know
    Yeah, I already know that there ain't no stoppin'
    Slow hands
    Like sweat dripping down our dirty laundry
    No, no chance
    That I'm leaving here without you on me
    I, I know
    Yeah, I already know that there ain't no stoppin'
    Your plans and those slow hands (woo)

    (Yeah)
    Your slow hands
