[Intro]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh oh oh
I'm the one
I'm the one
I'm, I'm the one you
I'm king of stage
I'm king of stage
The rock, the rock, the-the-the-the-the rock and

[Chorus]
Baby, wanna tell you something
I'm the one you need (Oh)
Baby, wanna tell you something (The rock, the rock and)
For you my heart bleeds
Baby, wanna tell you something
The way we feel is not a sin (Oh)
Baby, wanna tell you something
Just let the love begin

[Verse 1]
In one sense it's curiosity
The rest is just formality
I see that look in your eyes
And your clever combinations
Breaking young hearts
Must be your occupation
Checkin' my Swatch, whe was right on time
She walked so hot, hot, hot
Too sweet, a visual freat
One look and I'd leave my feet
Won't apologize for the way I feel
She shook me up with the rock and reel
I asked the girl if she was ready to ride
Three seconds later she was by my side

[Chorus]
Baby, wanna tell you something
I'm the one you need
(I'm the one you need)
Baby, wanna tell you something
For you my heart bleeds
(You know it)
Baby, wanna tell you something
The way we feel is not a sin
(Listen)
Baby, wanna tell you something
Just let the love begin

[Verse 2]
What you've got is too hot to handle
For the ordinary guy
And try they must
But with you they bite the dust
It seems they like that certain style
(Yeah, yeah, baby)
The night ended at our favorite spot
She gave me a kiss that I never forgot
I wasn't ready to turn in yet
But she said nothin' more I would get
So I guess I have to overwhelm you
Pick a star in the sky and I'll send you
Just grab my hand and let it shake
And listen to my drum while it starts to break

[Bridge]
B. Brown, B. Brown
My name is B. Brown, B. Brown
(Li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li-li-listen)

[Chorus]
Baby, wanna tell you something
I'm the one you need (I'm the one you need)
Baby, wanna tell you something
For you my heart bleeds (You my heart bleeds)
Baby, wanna tell you something
The way we feel is not a sin (The way we feel)
Baby, wanna tell you something
Just let the love begin (Let the love begin)

[Bridge]
Let the love begin
Jump on it
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
(King of, king of, king of stage)
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, oh oh, oh oh oh oh
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm
(King of, king of stage)
I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, I'm, oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh oh

Ow, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh, ow
Ow, oh oh oh, oh, oh oh, ow
Baby, wanna tell you something

[Chorus]
Baby, wanna tell you something
I'm the one you need (Oh)
Baby, wanna tell you something
For you my heart bleeds (The rock, the rock and)
Baby, wanna tell you something
The way we feel is not a sin (Oh)
Baby, wanna tell you something
Just let the love begin
