[Verse 1]
I've got two strong legs

Now don't you go on and crack, boy
Woah, yeah
Woah, yeah

[Verse 2]
I've got leverage
Woah, but babe, when you touch me there
Oh, I feel I'm 'bout to break, yeah
Oh, don't leave me this way, don't leave me here
Oh, now
[Pre-Chorus]
You feel it rush to your head
This is the time to attack
There's nothin' holdin' you back
Now go ahead
[Chorus]
So lately, I'm not the same, oh, no
Oh, I might just be the one, woo
So, baby, don't hurt yourself, oh, no
Said I might just be, I might just be the one
And lately, I'm not the same, oh

So, baby, don't hurt yourself, oh, no
Said I might just be, I might just be the one

Woah, someone's out to get you, yeah
Woah, I'm comin' back around for you
Woah, they're callin' me back, so I better go now
Oh yeah

You feel it rush to your head
This is the time to attack
You got the wind in your back
Now go ahead

Lately, I'm not the same
I might just be the one
So, baby, don't hurt yourself
Said I might, I, I might just be the one
Now lately, I'm not the same, oh
Ooh, I might just be the one, yeah
Well, baby, don't hurt yourself, no
Said I might just be, come on, let's go
[Outro]
Oh yeah
Woo, ride along, babe
Woo
Ah
Woo

Oh yeah
