    (Fire burning, fire burning) What a gwaan?
    Kingston
    Let's go, hey (hey, hey, hey)
    RedOne (hey, hey)

    Shawty got that super thang
    Hotter than the sun of the south of Spain
    Got me soon as I walked through the door, oh
    My pocket started tickling
    The way she dropped it low, that thang
    Got me wanna spend my money on her, her

    She get it, pop it, lock it, drop it
    That birthday cake
    Got a candle, need to blow that crazy flame away
    Now take my red, black card and my jewelry
    Shawty is cool like the fire, cool like fire

    Somebody call 9-1-1
    Shawty fire burning on the dance floor, whoa
    I gotta cool her down
    She will bring the roof to ground on the dance floor, whoa
    She's fire burning, fire burning on the dance floor
    That little shawty's fire burning on the dance floor
    She's fire burning, fire burning on the dance floor
    That little shawty's fire burning on the dance floor
    (Fire burning, fire burning)

    That body is a masterpiece
    The order is one in every hundred years
    But ain't no doubt I'm taking it home, home
    I'm afraid we'll blow them legs
    Little mama game is about to change
    She'll be on covers over the world, world

    She get it, pop it, lock it, drop it
    That birthday cake
    Got a candle, need to blow that crazy flame away
    Now take my red, black card and my jewelry
    Shawty is cool like the fire, cool like fire

    Somebody call 9-1-1
    Shawty fire burning on the dance floor, whoa
    I gotta cool her down
    She will bring the roof to ground on the dance floor, whoa
    She's fire burning, fire burning on the dance floor
    That little shawty's fire burning on the dance floor
    She's fire burning, fire burning on the dance floor
    That little shawty's fire burning on the dance floor

  • Bob from Dallas, NcWell I like it. It's catchy.
  • Jim from Philadelphia, PaThis song has a decent beat, but honestly, the lyrics are pretty weak and overall it lacks character.
  • Ashleigh from ?????, MoLove the song. It has an awesome beat.
