[Verse 1]
Well, when I met you at the station
You were standing with a bootleg in your hand
I drove you back to my little place
For a taste of a multicolored band
We're gonna get high, high, high
The night is young
I'll put you in my pocket, little mama
Gonna rock it, and we've only just begun
[Chorus]
We're gonna get hi, hi, hi
With the music on
We won't say bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
'Til the night has gone
I'm gonna do it to you, gonna do you sweet banana
You've never been done
We're gonna get hi, hi, hi
In the midday sun
Whoah, oh
Whoa, whoa, oh
[Verse 2]
Well, well, take off your face
Recover from the trip you've been on
I want you to lie on the bed
Getting ready for my polygon
I'm gonna do it to you, gonna do you sweet banana
You've never been done
Yes, and like a rabbit, gonna grab it
Going to do it till the night is done
[Chorus]
We're gonna get hi, hi, hi
With the music on
We won't say bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
'Til the night has gone
I'm gonna do it to you, gonna do you sweet banana
You've never been done
We're gonna get hi, hi, hi
We've got to get hi, hi, hi
We've got to get hi, hi, hi
In the midday sun
[Outro]
Ooh, baby
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh
Hi, hi, hi
Hi, hi, hi
Hi, hi
In the midday sun
Well, when I met you at the station
You were standing with a bootleg in your hand
I drove you back to my little place
For a taste of a multicolored band
We're gonna get high, high, high
The night is young
I'll put you in my pocket, little mama
Gonna rock it, and we've only just begun
[Chorus]
We're gonna get hi, hi, hi
With the music on
We won't say bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
'Til the night has gone
I'm gonna do it to you, gonna do you sweet banana
You've never been done
We're gonna get hi, hi, hi
In the midday sun

Hi, hi, hi
Hi, hi
