[Verse 1]
Oh, you feel it creep, creeping up your temple
Don't you need it? Pump, pump until we crumble
Trouble, trouble's what you need (What you need)
That's what you getting with me (What you need)
[Pre-Chorus]
From the bottom of your soul
[Chorus]
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Mama doesn't know who

Shame, shame, shame, shame
Devil woman wants to roll, ooh
I can make you shake

[Pre-Chorus]
From the bottom of your soul
[Chorus]
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Mama doesn't know who
Every night you go to
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Devil woman wants to roll, ooh

Shame, shame, shame, shame
Devil woman wants to roll, ooh
I can make you shake
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Mama doesn't know, ooh
Every night you go to
Shame, shame, shame, shame
Devil woman wants to roll, ooh
I can make you shake
Rattle your bones
