[Verse 1]
Baby, I see you, that look in your eyes
Hips that keep shaking, mysterious style
Exotically tempting, familiar to me
That Creole sexy, it's all over me
[Pre-Chorus]
So all my red bones get on the floor
And all my yellow bones get on the floor
And all my brown bones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
So all my red bones get on the floor
And all my yellow bones get on the floor
And all my brown bones get on the floor
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
[Chorus]
(Creole) When I look real good
(Creole) Whenever I talk real good
(Creole) Whenever I bounce real good
Just in case you wanna know, that's your secret
(Creole) When she look that good
(Creole) Whenever she talk that good

Creole
[Post-Chorus]

Bad, bad, bad, bad brown bone (Hey)
Bad, bad, bad, bad to the bone (Hey)
[Verse 2]

And all of my red bones that make a good sauce
The yellow bone flavor is familiar to me
Mix it all together, it's a delicacy
[Pre-Chorus]
So all my red bones get on the floor (Yes)
And all my yellow bones get on the floor (Yes)
And all my brown bones get on the floor (Yes)
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
So all my red bones get on the floor (Get on the floor)
And all my yellow bones get on the floor (Get on the floor)
And all my brown bones get on the floor (Ooh)
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole (Ooh, ooh)
[Chorus]
(Creole) When I look real good
(Creole) Whenever I talk real good
(Creole) Whenever I bounce real good
Just in case you wanna know, that's your secret
(Creole) When she look that good
(Creole) Whenever she talk that good
(Creole) Whenever she bounce that good
Ladies, if you wanna know, this your secret
Creole
[Post-Chorus]
Bad, bad, bad, bad yellow bone (Hey)
Bad, bad, bad, bad red bone (Hey)
Bad, bad, bad, bad brown bone (Hey)
Bad, bad, bad, bad to the bone (Hey)
Bad, bad, bad, bad yellow bone (Hey)
Bad, bad, bad, bad red bone (Hey)
Bad, bad, bad, bad brown bone (Hey)
Bad, bad, bad, bad to the bone (Hey)
[Pre-Chorus]
So all my red bones get on the floor (Yes)
And all my yellow bones get on the floor (Yes)
And all my brown bones get on the floor (Yes)
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole
So all my red bones get on the floor (Get on the floor)
And all my yellow bones get on the floor (Get on the floor)
And all my brown bones get on the floor (Ooh)
Then you mix it up and you call it Creole (Ooh, ooh)

(Creole) Whenever she talk that good
(Creole) Whenever she bounce that good
Ladies, if you wanna know, this your secret
