Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Slow dance

Slow

Whoa

[Verse 2]

Hey, Mr. DJ, why don't you slow this party down?

(Slow it down)

The ladies in here are fly (Cuties all fly)

And there's one who's caught my eye

(One who's caught my eye)

I wanna pull her close to me

And whisper sweet things in her ear, oh, yeah

[Verse 3]

'Cause tonight I'm full of fire, baby

Oh, yeah

And you're the only one my heart desire, baby

[Verse 4]

You're the only one I wanna slow dance with

Girl, you're the only one

Hey, Mr. DJ, why don't you slow this party down?

You're the only one I wanna slow dance with

Ooh, let the record spin

Now baby, take my hand, oh

[Verse 5]

Let the music play

'Cause I wanna get it on, oh

Put your arms around me, baby, ooh, yeah

(Arms around me)

And let's start a slow grind

[Verse 6]

I'm gonna rock and roll and rock it

All night long, baby, baby

What you're givin' me is a feeling so strong, so strong

Feel my nature rise, girl

I'm gonna make you feel good tonight

[Verse 7]

You're the only one

(You're the only one I wanna slow dance with)

I wanna slow dance with you, baby

DJ, let the record spin around real nice and slow, yeah

(You're the only one I wanna slow dance with)

Baby, let's slow dance right now

All you gotta do is take my hand and let me

[Verse 8]

(Let me lead you to the middle of the floor)

Ooh, baby, I'll put my arms around you, slow

(I'll put my arms around you and never let go)

Slow

(You're the only one I wanna slow dance with)

I wanna slow dance with you, baby

With you, and only you

Hey, girl, come and take my hand

(You're the only one I wanna slow dance with)

Run and tell the DJ to put a nickel on the needle

So the record go by

[Verse 9]

(You're the only one I wanna slow dance with)

See, it's one o'clock in the morning

And the party's just beginnin', yeah

And I wanna slow dance with you, baby

Before the night is through

(You're the only one I wanna slow dance with)

See, I been watchin' you and I know you been watchin' me too
