[Intro]
Stevie
[Verse 1]
I know you hear men say it time and time again
How they can rock your world and change your life
Well yeah, baby, I'm no different the rest
Go on give it a try, put me to the test
When I'm with you, baby, I lose my self-control ('Trol)
Let me show you love you ain't had before (Before)
You got me wondering how far we could go
If we don't dive in, we'll never know
[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't gotta be alone no more
Pretty young thing, I need you to know
That you're exactly what I'm looking for
Pretty young thing, I just gotta know
[Chorus]
Tell me one time
Tell me, baby, are you really down to ride?
Are you ready to be in my life?
Are you down to be called a wife?
And all mine
Tell me one time
Tell me, baby, are you really down to ride?
Are you ready to be in my life?
Are you down to be called a wife?
And all mine
Tell me one time
[Verse 2]
I know nobody's hit it like I have before
All the begging, scratching, coming back for more
You need a real one and babe, you know that's me
Need you to see that I can be all you need
When I'm with you baby I lose my self-control
Let me show you love that you ain't had before (Oh)
You got me wondering how far we could go
If we don't dive in, we'll never know
[Pre-Chorus]
Ain't gotta be alone no more
Pretty young thing (Pretty young thing), I need you to know (Oh-oh)
That you're exactly what I'm looking for (Mm)
Pretty young thing, I just gotta know
[Chorus]
Tell me one time (Tell me, baby)
Tell me, baby, are you really down to ride? (Are you down, down?)
Are you ready to be in my life?
Are you down to be called a wife? (Oh yeah)
And all mine
Tell me one time (Tell me, baby)
Tell me, baby, are you really down to ride?
Are you ready to be in my life? (My life)
Are you down to be called a wife? (Oh)
And all mine (Oh)
Tell me one time

No, we recreated it [the Ginuwine “Pony” sample], which makes it a little bit easier. I want to have that feel of the 90s that everyone’s going to recognise. Instead of me doing it with my mouth, we can recreate with keys and just warping sounds and having fun with it.
