Quavo
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)
People want me for one thing (That's not me)
I'm not changing, the way, that I (Used to be)
I just wanna have fun and (Get rowdy)
One Coke and Bacardi (Sippin' lightly)
When I walk inside the party (Girls on me)
F1 type Ferrari (Six gear speed)
Girl, I love it when your body (Grinds on me)
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, girl (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

You know, I used to be in 1D (Now I'm out, free)
People want me for one thing (That's not me)
I'm not changing, the way that I (Used to be)
I just wanna have fun and (Get rowdy, ooh)
One Coke and Bacardi (Sippin' lightly)
When I walk inside the party (Girls on me)
F1 type Ferrari (Six gear speed)
Girl, I love it when your body (Grinds on me, baby)
Ooh

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 (Yeah)
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, girl (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) (Strip that down)
Oh, strip that down, girl
Love, when you hit the ground (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Oh, strip that down, girl
Love when you hit the ground, girl (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) (Yeah)
Oh, strip that down, girl
Love, when you hit the ground (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Quavo)

She gon' strip it down for a thug, yeah (Strip it down)
Word around town, she got the buzz, yeah (Word)
Five shots in, she in love now (Shots)
I promise, when we pull up, shut the club down (Hey)
I took her from her man, don't nobody know (Know)
If you brought the CL, better drive slow (Slow)
She know how to make me feel with my eyes closed (Skrrt skrrt)
Anything goes down with the Huncho (Huncho)

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
You know, I love it when the music's loud
But c'mon, strip that down for me (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, c'mon, strip that down for me
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) (Ayy)
Don't say nothing, girl, strip that down for me (Strip it down)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
All I want, girl, if you strip that down for me (Strip it down)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
You're the one, girl, c'mon, strip that down for me
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

"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.

Baby

Telling all your friends how much you hate me
But who you calling up when you get lonely?

You be saying real real nice real nice things
When I'm touching you
You be getting real real real real real jealous
When it wasn't you oh
And every now when my iPhone iPhone rings
I be telling you
I told you, I told you, I told you

You said it was over

But your clothes say different on my bedroom floor
You said it was over

But your clothes say different on my bedroom floor
But your clothes say different on my bedroom floor
But your clothes say different on my bedroom floor, yeah

Baby
Why you always act like you don't want me?
Don't make me bring up your dirty laundry
We always on and off until you're on me
Until you're on me
