Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yo
Mabel, uh

Mama, don't run away
You know I got it, I know you want it
I'm a phone call away
You know you're on my mind
I know that you wanna stay
Let me take you to space
I can smell you from miles away
Wanna see you in lingerie
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

You've got it, I want it
When I'm willing to put my all in
Wanna see you in the mornings
It should be me that you're callin'
You got it, I want it
When I'm willing to put my all in
Wanna see you in the mornings
It should be me that you're callin'

Put your arms all around it
Take it now that you've found it
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers
Put your arms all around it
Take it now that you've found it
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers
It's finders keepers
It's finders keepers
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers

I got what you want
If you trust me, then trust me
I got what you want
If you trust me, then trust me
I got what you want, 'cause I got you

I don't need miracles from ya
Stop going all digital on me
Don't feel like you need to try and love me
'Cause I don't need a spiritual journey

Boy, why you living in fear?
You don't live around here
Let's make use of the timing
These are the ends I stay
I don't plan on coming your way
Let's make use of the timing

Put your arms all around it
Take it now that you've found it
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers
Put your arms all around it
Take it now that you've found it
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers
It's finders keepers
It's finders keepers
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers

I got what you want
If you trust me, then trust me
I got what you want
If you trust me, then trust me
I got what you want, 'cause I got you

I don't need miracles from ya
So let's keep the talk minimal
Is it criminal for me to want you right here, right now?
They say it's all chemical

Boy, why you living in fear?
You don't live around here
Let's make use of the timing
No I don't mind if you take me home
Didn't come here to leave on my own
Let's make use of the timing

Put your arms all around it
Take it now that you've found it
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers
Put your arms all around it
Take it now that you've found it
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers
It's finders keepers
It's finders keepers
It don't need to be no deeper
It's finders keepers

I got what you want
If you trust me, then trust me
I got what you want
If you trust me, then trust me
I got what you want, 'cause I got you
