Betty Wright
Body Slang
[Intro]
Ooh, the way you're walkin'
You might as well be talkin' in body slang

[Verse 1]
Hey baby, I don't know your name, chile
But you communicate in body slang now
I've been watching you, ooh, I love the way you walk
Every step you take, it makes me wanna fall
Can I just hold ya, close to my chest
Kiss me, chile (smooch!) – go on, take my breath
Love me, love me to death
And if I like it, be back to get the rest

[Chorus 1]
(You're talkin' to me, baby, in body slang)
I'm gonna come back to get the rest, chile
(Better watch what you're sayin', I like that thang)

[Verse 2]
Hello pretty baby, ain't never felt this way, chile
I said you're talkin' to me in body slang now
I've been listenin' to you, and I love the way you talk
Like every word you say
Every word you say is like a love call
Now, wouldn't it be nice if I were yours?
You could have what I have in store
Love me, love me, love me, right down to the core
If I like it, be back to get some more
[Chorus 2]
(You're talkin' to me, baby, in body slang)
I'm gonna come back to get some more, chile
(I like what you're sayin', so watch that thang) hey, hey, hey

[Vamp]
Oh yeah, ohh baby, nah baby... I said slow, baby
A little bit mo', baby
You better just watch that thang, yeah, body slang, yeah
Watch that thang, yeah, body slang, yeah
Watch that thang, yeah, body slang, yeah
Watch that thang, yeah, body slang, yeah

[Verse 3]
Don't cha wanna, don't cha wanna be my man?
I will give you love, all you can stand
Just tell me, I'll meet your every demand
And if I like it, be back to do it again

[Chorus 3]
(You're talkin' to me, baby, in body slang)
I'm gonna come back to do it again, chile
(Better watch what you're sayin', I like that thang) hey, hey, hey

[Vamp]
Watch that thang, yeah, body slang, yeah
Watch that thang, yeah, body slang, yeah
Watch that thang, yeah, body slang, yeah
Watch that thang, yeah, body slang, yeah
[Outro]
Ohh, body slang, yeah, you've got body slang, yeah
You're just talkin' to me, talkin' to me, talkin' to me, yeah
(Ooh, the way you're walkin'
You might as well be talkin' in body slang)
In that old body slang, chile
(Ooh, the way you're walkin'
You might as well be talkin' in body slang)
I don't know what you're sayin' to me
Baby, but I like what I think I hear, yeah
(Ooh, the way you're walkin'
You might as well be talkin' in body slang)
In body slang, yeah
You're just talkin' to me, baby, in body slang now
(Ooh, the way you're walkin'
You might as well be talkin' in body slang
Ooh, the way you're walkin'
You might as well be talkin' in body slang...)
