Lyrics

Ryd

Speedin' down the backstreet
I'm tryna get you in my backseat
Girl, I want you to ride with me
Baby, ride on me

Speedin' down the backstreet
I'm tryna get you in my backseat
Girl, I want you to ride with me
Baby, ride on me

I see the way you lookin' at me through my peripheral vision
Pretty baby as I ride on this empty road
I'm just lookin' for somethin' to do
Asked if she was hungry, does she want any food and
She said, "Nah" then she kissed me on my cheek
Next thing I know she was feelin' on me, and
I was in the M double-O D
When she said, "Park my car down the backstreet"

Speedin' down the backstreet
I'm tryna get you in my backseat
Girl, I want you to ride with me
Baby, ride on me

Speedin' down the backstreet
I'm tryna get you in my backseat
Girl, I want you to ride with me
Baby, ride on me
