Kylie Cantrall – Denim Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I need a reason for sneaking up outta this house
Pop a window so no one finds out, uh-uh
I’m feeling something between us about to go down
So come see what I’m all about, uh-uh
[Pre-Chorus]
Got your lips on mine, up against your car (Lips on mine, up against your car)
And the street lights buzzing just like we are, uh (Street lights buzzing just like we are)
It’s a short ride home but we’ll take it far (Short ride home but we’ll take it far)
So put it in park, let’s stay right where we are (Woo)
[Chorus]
Hands on me, wanna feel my denim (My denim)
Is it bad that I might just let him? (Might just let him)
Got him sprung by the way I fit ’em
Uh (Ah), uh-uh (Ah), uh-uh (Ah-ah)
Hands on me, wanna feel my denim (My denim)
Is it bad that I might just let him? (Might just let him)
Gatekeep me, baby, please, don’t tell ’em
Uh (Ah), uh-uh (Ah), uh-uh (Ah-ah; Woo)
[Verse 2]
Youthful type of indiscretion
Like you never learned your lesson
Materials from overseas
You probably thinking it was made from heaven
But I’m classically fashioned
I’m your favorite habit
I don’t mean to be dramatic
It’s the best you ever had it
[Pre-Chorus]
Got your lips on mine, up against your car (Lips on mine, up against your car)
And the street lights buzzing just like we are (Street lights buzzing just like we are, denim)
It’s a short ride home but we’ll take it far (Short ride home but we’ll take it far)
So put it in park, let’s stay right where we are (Let’s stay right where)
[Chorus]
Hands on me, wanna feel my denim (My denim)
Is it bad that I might just let him (Might just let him)
Got him sprung by the way I fit ’em
Uh (Ah), uh-uh (Ah), uh-uh (Ah-ah)
Hands on me, wanna feel my denim (My denim)
Is it bad that I might just let him? (Might just let him)
Gatekeep me, baby, please, don’t tell ’em
Uh (Ah), uh-uh (Ah), uh-uh (Ah-ah)
[Bridge]
Ayy, yeah, yeah
He like the way I fit in my denim
He like the way I fit in my denim (Uh-uh)
He like the way I fit in my denim (Like the way)
He like the way I fit in my denim (Uh-uh)
[Outro]
Boy, boy
He like the way I fit in my denim
Boy, boy
He like the way I fit in my denim
