Yo yo
You know, I've been taking some time
And I've been keeping to myself (self)
I had my eyes up on the prize
Ain't watching anybody else
But your love, it hit me hard, girl
Yeah, you're bad for my health
I love the cards, that I've been dealt
Do you feel the same as well?
You know, I used to be in 1D (Now I'm out, free)

Oh yeah
You know, I love it, when the music's loud
But c'mon, strip that down for me, baby
Now there's a lot of people in the crowd
But only you can dance with me
So put your hands on my body
And swing that round for me, baby (Swing)
You know, I love it when the music's loud
But c'mon, strip that down for me (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Oh, strip that down, girl
Love, when you hit the ground
You know, that since the day I met you
Yeah, you swept me off my feet
You know, that I don't need no money
When your love is beside me
Yeah, you opened up my heart
And then you threw away the key
Girl, now it's just you and me
And you don't care 'bout where I've been

"1 billion global streams for 'Strip That Down. A ridiculous number!! Thank you to everyone that has supported this track," Payno tweeted announcing the news.
It's hardly surprising as the Quavo-assisted anthem was quite literally everywhere last year, going on to become one of the biggest songs of the summer.
'Strip That Down' reached Number 3 on the UK Singles Chart, Number 2 in Australia and even cracked the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 in the US, making Liam the third One Direction member to have a solo Top 10 hit across the pond.
Second single 'Bedroom Floor' and 'Get Low', a collaboration with EDM king Zedd, followed suit, however his dreamy duet with Rita Ora is likely to be just as big as 'Strip That Down'.
'For You' is the A-list pair's collaboration for the Fifty Shades Freed soundtrack and is expected to be just as big as Payne's ex-bandmate Zayn Malik's previous soundtrack single.
