I met you on a Monday
We were drinkin' white wine
Pale sky, text goodbye, I lent you my jacket, remember?
It was such a cold night for summer
You said it's all about the way you sing the top line
Sing it like you really mean it
I sing it like I really mean it
I really don't stand a chance, I really don't stand a chance
Girl, I just wanna dance, girl, I just wanna dance
Twenty2, gorgeous, God bless, tell me that you've been away to Texas
We can split the bottle if you need to, that's the real truth
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your daddy used to listen to James Brown
New York City summertime
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your daddy used to listen to James Brown
New York City summertime
Now, I'm not tryna make a move on you
But you got every eye glued to ya in the whole room
Every one here thinks that they need ya
Every one here thinks that they need you
We can split the bottle if you need to, that's the real truth
(Twenty2 minutes until midnight, here comes the one night stand)
(Take a little time you need to 'cause I will too)
And every one here thinks that they need you
Every one here thinks that they need you
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your daddy used to listen to James Brown
New York City summertime
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your daddy used to listen to James Brown
New York City summertime
Everyone here thinks that they need you
Everyone here thinks
