GIn a rush so we took a back road
CCouldnt't wait when you're sitting that close EmI can't concentrate
DI can't take it when you
Cadd9Slip ya hands in the  Choles of my jeans
AmIn my jeep, Gtearin' up these side streets
CI bet your lips taste
EmA little better on a one way
[Pre-Chorus]
GCrusin', Cwhippin' Dthrough my veins Emrunnin' down my spine
CSudden rush I can't Cadd9explain
N.C.
But I love the way

CYou give me those eyes so I know, oh I know, Cadd9what's about to go down,
Goh baby I'm so down
