yeah
now tell me girl
won’t you tell me true
help me get this out of my head

now Fenny thinks that there ain’t no stoppin’
until you got me flat on my back

you know my number
just give me a call
you know what I’m thinking
we’re just havin’ a ball

now there’s things that I agree with
and things that I really don’t
if you think I’m free to try something crazy
there ain’t nothing ’round that I won’t

you know my number
just give me a call
you know what I’m thinking
we’re just havin’ a ball

yeah
just havin’ a ball
just havin’ a ball
just havin’ a ball
just havin’ a ball

now if you want to spend some time with me
if you’ve got some time to kill
tell more or else I’ll leave this place
know a couple of a ladies that will

you know my number
just give me a call
you know what I’m thinking
we’re just havin’ a ball

you know my number
just give me a call
you know what I’m thinking
we’re just havin’ a ball

yeah
just havin’ a ball
just havin’ a ball
just havin’ a ball
just havin’ a ball

you know my number
just give me a call
you know what I’m thinking
we’re just havin’ a ball

you know my number
just give me a call
you know what I’m thinking
we’re just havin’ a ball

you know my number
just give me a call
you know what I’m thinking
we’re just havin’ a ball
