[Intro]
Baby, we both just sitting here
We need to get somewhere private
Just you and me, listen

[Verse 1]
It's the middle of the night
And we're both just sitting here
I'm checking out your body
The hot shorts and tanks you wear
Make me wanna do something freaky to you my baby
Gotta let me know something
'Cause I need to know right here
We need to get somewhere (Yeah)
We can be alone (Alone)
Somebody's at my crib (That's right)
And you got folks at home
So can we, get up on a

[Chorus]
Can we get up on a room
(Get up on a room)
Baby just me and you
(Baby me and you)
I'll go there on you
(I'll go there on you)
If we get up on this room
(On a room)

[Verse 2]
Bubble bath, you and me chilling in a tub babe
I'm gonna wash your body babe
And you're gonna wash my body babe
(Gonna wash my body)
All I wanna do is drive you crazy
(Yeah, baby, drive you crazy)

[Chorus]
Can we get up on a room
(Get up on a room)
Baby just me and you
(Baby me and you)
I'll go there on you
(I'll go there on you)
If we get up on this room
(On a room)

[Bridge]
Baby, ooh
Break it down, break it down
Break it down, break it down
Break it down
Break it down, break it down
Break it down, break it down
Break it down
Throw your underwear on the wall
Whose the greatest lover of them all?
Who makes your love come down like waterfalls?
I thought you knew, come on baby, let's do this

[Chorus]
Can we get up on a room
(Get up on a room)
Baby just me and you
(Baby me and you)
I'll go there on you
(I'll go there on you)
If we get up on this room
(On a room)

[Verse 3]
You and me chilling on the 55th floor
Right before we bump we put the sign outside the door
The more we going up and down the more we wanting more
It's getting hot in this car so what the hell we waiting for
Can we, can we get up on
Can we get up on a room

[Chorus]
Can we get up on a room
(Get up on a room)
Baby just me and you
(Baby me and you)
I'll go there on you
(I'll go there on you)
If we get up on this room
(On a room)

[Verse 4]
You don't have to go far to get a piece of me
You wait in the car while I go get the keys
Double lock the door for complete privacy
No room service baby 'cause you will be the feast, can we
We'll cuddle up with each other babe, yes we will
And I'll go there on this chair
Yoodle-eh-e-ooh

[Chorus]
Can we get up on a room
(Get up on a room)
Baby just me and you
(Baby me and you)
I'll go there on you
(I'll go there on you)
If we get up on this room
(On a room)

Robert Kelly is a Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer from the South Side of Chicago, Illinois, where he first started performing under the “L” subway tracks as a teenager. This led into his first album, Born Into the 90’s, being released in 1992 as a collaboration between R. Kelly and Public Announcement. R. Kelly wrote and produced the entire album, which contained the #1 R&B hits “Honey Love” and “Slow Dance,” along with the Top 10 R&B hits “She’s Got That Vibe” (#7) and “Dedicated” (#9). The following year, Kelly went on to become a solo act.

In 1993, he released his first solo album, 12 Play, featuring the hits “Bump N' Grind” and “Your Body’s Callin'.” He released a self-titled album in 1995 featuring the hits “Down Low (Nobody Has To Know)” and “You Remind Me of Something,” while his 1998 double album, R., featured a string of hits, including “I Am Your Angel” with Celine Dion, “When a Woman’s Fed Up,” and his Grammy Award-winning song “I Believe I Can Fly” from the Space Jam soundtrack.

The success of these albums led to him becoming an in-demand producer in the ‘90s, writing and producing #1 hits for Aaliyah (“Back & Forth”), Janet Jackson (“Any Time, Any Place (Remix)”), Changing Faces (“G.H.E.T.T.O.U.T”), Maxwell (“Fortunate”), and Michael Jackson (“You Are Not Alone”).
