[Intro]
I'm in love with a roughneck
[Verse 1]
Rollin' in my ride, I saw my brother's girl Christina
She said that "there gon' be at a party down at Misty's later"
Feeling lonely, down, and so confused
I told her "meet me there by two"
[Pre-Chorus]
So I pulled up at the party, jeans all painted on
Escada pumps, Gucci hat, got my cellular
Then I saw him, he was so damn fine
I knew I had to make him mine
[Chorus]
So here's the deal
Yeah, my baby keeps it real
He knows exactly how I feel
Yes, I'm in love
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
Fly, yeah, he gave me such a high
I ain't got nothin' left to hide
He know what he got
I'm gonna strike while the iron's hot
[Verse 2]
Sat with my girls, lookin' straight over in his direction
Party was bumpin', yeah, he got me feelin' our connection
Caught my eye as he passed me by
And asked me how I'm doin' tonight
[Pre-Chorus]
My heart was racin', couldn't see nobody else but him
As he moved closer he began to make me weak inside
Right then I knew, boy, that it was you
You knew exactly what to do
[Chorus]
So here's the deal
Yeah, my baby keeps it real
He knows exactly how I feel
Yes, I'm in love
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
Fly, yeah, he gave me such a high
I ain't got nothin' left to hide
He know what he got
I'm gonna strike while the iron's hot
[Bridge]
He tells me "que vistoso, un diezmo"
Asi es como mi amor me dice que me quiere
"Que vistoso, un diezmo, baya"
That's how my baby tell me that he love me
"Que vistoso, un diezmo"
Asi es como mi amor me dice que me quiere
"Que vistoso, un diezmo"
Strike while the iron's hot
[Chorus]
So here's the deal
Yeah, my baby keeps it real
He knows exactly how I feel
Yes, I'm in love
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
Fly, yeah, he gave me such a high
I ain't got nothin' left to hide
He know what he got
I'm gonna strike while the iron's hot
So here's the deal
Yeah, my baby keeps it real
He knows exactly how I feel
Yes, I'm in love
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
Fly, yeah, he gave me such a high
I ain't got nothin' left to hide
He know what he got
I'm gonna strike while the iron's hot
[Outro]
