TAKIN' YOU DOWN
I got the fire in a bottleCooled her hand from luck
Smooth, rough and ready
Trash in the next taffy verse
I'm takin' you down baby
Two hundred proof over ice
Exposing what isn't mine
Riding on hourglass measures
Take five girl then twenty five
I'm takin' you down, downtown
Takin' you down
Takin' you down
Takin' you down
Fifth floor to silk and satin
Basement bargains set high
Gazing the promises east to west
While having breakfast penthouse style
Takin' you down
Takin' you down
Takin' you down
Chill of early morning snuggles
Goose bumps connect the dots
I let you win at tic-tac-toe
But the gift is in playing bingo
I'm takin' you down and under
Ride 'em cowgirl pony express
Leather boots in ninety degrees
Rain and fragrant juices escape
Red tape binding southern gravy
Takin' you down, takin' you down
Down, down, down
I'm takin' you down
Takin' you down
Takin' you down
Takin' you down
