Lirik Terjemahan
Yeah, yeah
You are a bad bad Mrs
In them skin tight britches
Runnin' folks in ditches
Baby about to bust the stitches, yeah
Skin tight, skin tight
Skin tight, skin tight
Hold tight
You are a real fine lady
Though your walks a little shady
Step on the strip on time
There's money you're bound to find, yeah
Skin tight, skin tight
Skin tight, skin tight
Skin tight, skin tight
Hold tight
Gone, gone, gone with your bad self
Walk that walk, talk that talk mama
Skin tight
Hold me barely back girl
Keep on steppin' to me baby
