I’ll Call Ya Lyrics
[Intro]
Hey, babe (Ooh)
I don't
[Chorus]
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya
Body so sick, gotta get next to ya
I've been waiting all night long to know your name
Everything about you, girl, I want
And you gotta know that
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Hey)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya
[Verse 1]
Girl, maybe we need to spend some time 'cause you got me gone (I'm so gone)
And there will be no playing with your mind
'Cause this here is more than before, this is real
I'm an eighteen-year-old grown-ass man tryna get in your life, let go of me
[Chorus]
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Yeah, yeah)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya (Oh no)
Body so sick, gotta get next to ya (Oh yeah)
I've been waiting all night long to know your name (Just to know your name)
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Oh)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya (Hey)
Body so sick, gotta get next to ya
I've been waiting all night long to know your name
Everything about you, girl, I want
And you gotta know that
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Hey)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya
Hey, babe (Ooh)
I don't
[Chorus]
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya
Body so sick, gotta get next to ya
I've been waiting all night long to know your name
Everything about you, girl, I want
And you gotta know that
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Hey)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya
[Verse 1]
Girl, maybe we need to spend some time 'cause you got me gone (I'm so gone)
And there will be no playing with your mind
'Cause this here is more than before, this is real
I'm an eighteen-year-old grown-ass man tryna get in your life, let go of me
[Chorus]
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Yeah, yeah)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya (Oh no)
Body so sick, gotta get next to ya (Oh yeah)

[Verse 2]
Most don't get all of that brain and the face is so flawless (She's such a beautiful girl)
And every fantasy in my life I dream about is all in you
If I try would you take me where you are?
That place that many won't ever get a chance to see
You've been so cold (Cold, been so cold)
Maybe (Maybe), if you let me (Let me)
Your flame (Your flame) will be on again
Tell me what you want (Girl, tell me what you want)
'Cause I won't sleep (Won't sleep)
I won't cheat (Won't cheat)
Love me (Love me), it's all that you give
[Chorus]
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Yeah)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya (Hey)
Body so sick, gotta get next to ya (I gotta get next to ya)
I've been waiting all night long to know your name (To know your name)
I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Oh)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya (Oh)
Body so sick, gotta get next to ya
I've been waiting all night long to know your name
[Bridge]
I've been thinking 'bout the way (Oh, baby)
That I'm gon' take it down (Oh, baby)
Ain't no way that you would be in need (No, baby)
'Cause you'd be all I'm thinking 'bout, ain't no way (No, baby)
Most don't get all of that brain and the face is so flawless (She's such a beautiful girl)
And every fantasy in my life I dream about is all in you
If I try would you take me where you are?
That place that many won't ever get a chance to see
You've been so cold (Cold, been so cold)
Maybe (Maybe), if you let me (Let me)
Your flame (Your flame) will be on again
Tell me what you want (Girl, tell me what you want)
'Cause I won't sleep (Won't sleep)
I won't cheat (Won't cheat)
Love me (Love me), it's all that you give

I don't wanna hurt ya, I just wanna know ya (Oh)
Read me your script, later, baby, I'll call ya (Oh)
Body so sick, gotta get next to ya
I've been waiting all night long to know your name
