Coastline Robbery (I Wanna Love Ya)

V6

[Intro — Talkbox] [Female Duet — Sung] Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya [Male Rap — English Only] Westside, eight-oh-five. Damn, girl. Let’s ride. [Verse 1 — Male Rap, English Only] Burgundy ‘64, white seats, chrome on the wheels, She slid in shy; I said, “Tell me how freedom feels.” Malibu sunshine put a halo on her curls, I said, “Damn, even daylight’s trying to impress my girl.” She hid that little smile; I said, “Don’t be cruel, Got the whole damn ocean out here acting a fool.” Ventura wind kissed her cheek, stole a strand of hair, I said, “Hell, breeze, get in line; I saw her first, I swear.” Santa Barbara sails all dressed in Sunday white, But her eyes had the harbor putting on its lights. She stole my shades, tipped ‘em down real low, I said, “Shit, you’re trouble with a front-row show.” She laughed; I said, “Girl, I’m charging you rent, You’ve been living in my head since the minute we met.” She leaned a little closer as the bassline rolled, Had a hard-ass heart doing things it ain’t told. [Instrumental Break — Two Bars] [Female Duet — Sung Spanglish] Ay, papi, no seas malo… [giggle] Qué bonito, keep talking, guapo! [Chorus — Female Duet Only] Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya I need a thug in my life, mi amor, Un poquito malo, sweet to the core. Me haces reír, you make me fly, Bésame, baby, under that sky. [Talkbox — Short Reply] [Verse 2 — Male Rap, English Only] Santa Maria red oak, tri-tip smoking on a plate, She stole the biggest bite; I said, “Damn, that’s grand theft steak.” Pismo painted pink on the water by the pier, I said, “Sky’s blushing too, ‘cause you’re standing right here.” Shell Beach left little pearls of foam around her toes, I said, “Ocean’s buying jewelry; damn, there it goes.” Avila, she danced with my shades on her face, I said, “Girl, you’re stealing sunshine all over the place.” Morro Rock stood tough, wouldn’t budge for a wave, But her hand in mine had me forgetting how to behave. Cayucos into Cambria, bass bouncing sweet, She hummed along softly, keeping time with her feet. I said, “Shit, even seagulls want a piece of your song, But their ugly-ass singing can’t get one note strong.” She kissed my cheek, caught me off my guard, I said, “Hell, that’s a cheap shot straight through my heart.” [Instrumental Break — Two Bars] [Female Duet — Sung Spanglish] Ay, qué lindo, me haces sonreír… Te tengo loquito, come closer to me! [Chorus — Female Duet Only] Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya I need a thug in my life, mi amor, Un poquito malo, sweet to the core. Me haces reír, you make me fly, Bésame, baby, under that sky. [Verse 3 — Male Rap, English Only] Big Sur fog played shy, hiding half of the blue, I said, “Damn, even clouds learned that trick from you.” Bixby Bridge wore silver like a chain across the sea, I said, “Ain’t a damn thing shining brighter than you next to me.” Monterey, she held my hand; I forgot to act cool, Had a streetwise man grinning like a lovesick fool. Santa Cruz boardwalk, her eyes catching the lights, Some clown blocked her way and started picking a fight. I said, “Back the hell up”; he swung, I slipped right, Caught him once; his friends pulled him out of sight. She grabbed my collar, kissed me, left my head in a spin, I said, “Shit, girl, who’s the dangerous one again?” She laughed behind her fingers, stole my shades once more, I said, “Damn, you got a whole crime spree going on tour.” She pulled me by the hand, and I forgot my plan, A tough-ass fool turned soft by the sweetest little scam. [Instrumental Break — Two Bars] [Female Duet — Sung Spanglish] Ay, Dios mío, ven acá… [giggle] Bésame despacito, don’t go far! [Bridge — Male Rap, English Only] Parked above the surf as the daylight slipped away, Rolled a little joint for a sweet ghetto date. She stole my lighter; I said, “Damn, what’s next, my shoes?” She winked like a bandit who ain’t got shit to lose. You got my fries, my shades; hell, I’m under a curse, But damn, girl, that smile makes the robbery worth it. [Instrumental Break — Two Bars] [Female Duet — Sung Spanglish Only] Ven por él, mi amor, un besito first… Ay, papi, you’re smiling; you know you love it! Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya [Talkbox — Four-Bar Solo] [Final Chorus — Female Duet Only] Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya I need a thug in my life, mi amor, Un poquito malo, sweet to the core. Me haces reír, you make me fly, Bésame, baby, under that sky. Shoo be do wop, I wanna love ya!
