Girl before you go now
There’s one thing I wanted to do
That’s get you to come back
Because I wanna make love to you

Got me real turned on

But there’s something in your eyes
Telling me you have to go yeah
Something in your eyes
But you trying not to let it show
Oh yeah

Got me real turned on

Next time you come over
I’ll buy you a bottle of wine – oh
Just take a little drink
And everything will turn out fine
Yes it will

Whoa baby, do you know what I’ve got in mind
Can you guess what it is
Or do you want it on the line

Got me real turned
Got me real turned
Got me real turned
Got me real turned on
