Lyrics

[Verse 1]

After tonight, tonight, tonight

I'ma be your favorite, oh, yeah

All night, all night, all night, all night

I'ma be the one chasin', ha

[Verse 2]

I'ma get on your stage and sing like a bird, oh, oh, oh

And I'ma get on your page, baby, like a word, oh, oh, oh

I'mma break it down, oh, baby, baby, I'ma, I'ma turn you out

Just watch me and my love start to develop like a picture, oh, yeah

[Verse 3]

Oh, now tame me, brace me, hold me down

That's it, rough, soft, turn me around

Baby, I'm gon' do it till I've done it

And the next time they ask you

[Verse 4]

You tell 'em that I run it

You know I run it, you know I run it, it's mine

I run it, you know I run it, you know I run it

Boy, you know I run it

You know I run it, you know I run it, it's mine

I run it, you know I run it, you know I run it, oh

[Verse 5]

Alright, alright, alright, alright

Tell me what you got and I'ma take it (I'ma take it)

(Tell me what you gon' do when I'm all up on you)

Won't fight, won't fight, won't fight, won't fight

Shawty, won't you go ahead and break it?

(Baby, get up on it, show me that you want it)

[Verse 6]

In the kitchen, in the hallway, up on the sofa, ooh

Got me pop, pop, pop, pop, poppin' this thing like a toaster, ooh

Lift off into the sky, and exit Earth

And let this ATLien give you what you deserve

[Verse 7]

Now, baby, come on, tame me, brace me, hold me down

That's it, rough, soft, turn me around

Baby, I'm gon' do it till I've done it

And the next time they ask you

[Verse 8]

You tell 'em that I run it

You know I run it, you know I run it, it's mine

I run it, you know I run it, you know I run it

Boy, you know I run it

You know I run it, you know I run it, it's mine

I run it, you know I run it, you know I run it, tell me

[Verse 9]

How does it feel?

Do you like when I do this to you?

How does it feel?

I know you like when I do it to you

It's yours, it's mine, you can get it every day

All day, all night, you can get it every way

How does it feel?

I know you like when I do this to you

[Verse 10]

You tell them that I run it

You know I run it, you know I run it, it's mine

I run it, you know I run it, you know I run it (Yes, I do)

Boy, you know I run it

You know I run it, you know I run it, it's mine

I run it, you know I run it, you know I run it

Boy, you know

[Verse 11]

I run it, you know I run it, you know I run it

I do, I do, I do, I do
