BATTY BOY Lyrics
[Verse]
Batty boy, you been on my mind
I see you in my dreams (All up up in my dreams)
I think about you all the time, I'm trying to make you scream (Ayo, ayo)
Batty boy, not a day goes by, without you in my dreams (All up, up in my dreams)
I think about you all the time, I'm trying to make you holla, holla, holla
[Chorus]
I don't wanna love nobody (Nobody)
I just wanna love your body (Your body)
Take me to your best friend's place
Maybe we can make mistakes
I don't wanna fuss and fight (And fight)
I just wanna ask, can you be mine for the rest of the night?
Mine for the rest of the night
[Outro]
No hay nadie más
Una noche más
Finalmente más
Yeah
