🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh, ah, ah
  • Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh, ah, ah.
  • I gotta roll, can't stand still
  • Got a flamin' heart, can't get my fill

Echo the hook

  • Oh yeah, oh yeah, ah, ah, ah
  • Oh yeah, oh yeah, ah, ah, ah
  • All I ask for when I pray
  • A steady rollin' woman won't come my way
babycan'twoman
