I'm taking a moment just imaginin' that I'm dancin' with you

                                             Cm7
I'm your pole and all you're wearing is your shoes

And you have your own engaging style

                                                 C#maj7
And you make my slacks a little tight, you may unfasten them if you like

That's if you crash and spend the night
[Chorus]
              Bbm7             Cm7
But you don't fold, you don't fade

                 Bbm7
Curl your upper lip up and let me look around

Ride your tongue along your bottom lip and bite down

C#maj7                           F#maj7
And bend your back and ask those hips if I can touch

                    C7
Because they're the perfect jumping off point of getting closer to your
[Chorus]
      Fm7

Or Eskimo your nose real close to mine
