[Verse 1: Beyoncé]
How you doing, honey baby?
You know I don't ask for much, but
For a girl spendin' time alone can be pretty rough
But I get a knock on my door
You know it's yours for sure
We can't wait for the bedroom
So we just hit the floor
[Pre-Chorus: Beyoncé, Pharrell Williams]
(Sing it, girl)
Is y'all alright?
I don't know but I know what's happening to me, girl
(Sing it, y'all)
Is y'all alright?
Uh, break it down now
(Sing it, girl)
Is y'all alright?
I don't know but I know what's happening to me, girl
Is y'all alright?
Uh, break it down now
(Sing it, girl, come on)
[Chorus: Beyoncé]
See, you gotta work it out
See, you gotta work it out
A brotha gotta work it out, oh-oh-oh-oh
[Refrain: Beyoncé]
Chad, blow your horn now
Come on, Chad, blow your horn now
Chad, blow your horn now
Come on, Chad, blow your horn now
[Verse 2: Beyoncé]
So we shakin' back and forth now
Just keep it comin', babe
Treat my body like a guitar
You got to, you got to keep on strummin'
But in the back of my mind
I wonder "Is it gonna be the last time?"
Well, if there ain't nobody lovin', and you gon' keep it comin'
Well, baby, with me that's fine
[Pre-Chorus: Beyoncé, Pharrell Williams]
(Sing it, girl)
Is y'all alright?
I don't know but I know what's happening to me, girl
(Sing it, girl)
Is y'all alright?
Uh, break it down now
(Sing it, girl, come on)
Is y'all alright?
I don't know but I know what's happening to me, girl
(Come on)
Is y'all alright?
Uh, break it down now
(Sing it, girl, come on)

See, you gotta work it out
See, you gotta work it out, oh-oh
A brotha gotta work it out, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Come on, Chad, blow your horn now

[Bridge: Beyoncé]
So, baby, hold me like you don't wanna let go
I'm feelin' foxy (Feelin' foxy)
'Cause, boy, you workin' it out
Daddy, you've given me a taste of your honey
I want the whole beehive (Whole beehive)
I'm gonna call you my sugar
'Cause I (I) had the sweetest time (Sweetest time)
