Shock To the System Lyrics by Eli “Paperboy” Reed

Nights Like This

0

She walked in my life and turned it upside down
I hollered Hey! Hey! Hey!
I was serious about her but she made me a clown
I hollered Hey! Hey! Hey!
I was feeling lost I didn't know how I could be found
I hollered Hey! Hey! Hey!
O! She set me straight
My feet on the ground
I hollered Hey! Hey! Hey!
(pre- chorus)
I was skippin like a record
My song on repeat until she flipped the 45
And knocked me off my feet
(chorus)
Yea! Like a shock, shock to the system
Kicked to the rhythm
She dun' stopped the beat of my, beat of my heart
She's got what I'm missing
Her ? just kissin
She turned me on and there's no turning me off
They said they couldn't tell if I was dead or alive
I hollered Hey! Hey! Hey!
O! She pulled me out the water and she let me survive
I hollered Hey! Hey! Hey!
(pre- chorus)
I was skippin like a record
My song on repeat until she flipped the 45
And knocked me off my feet
(chorus)
Yea! Like a shock, shock to the system
Kicked to the rhythm
She dun' stopped the beat of my, beat of my heart
She's got what I'm missing
My ? just kissin
She turned me on and there's no turning me off
She's turnin' me on
She's turnin' me on
Stayin' with me Stayin' with me all night longggg
(chorus)
Like a shock, shock to the system
Kicked to the rhythm
She dun' stopped the beat of my, beat of my heart
She's got what I'm missing
My ? just kissin
She turned me on and there's no turning me off
(chorus)
Like a shock, shock to the system
Kicked to the rhythm
She dun' stopped the beat of my, beat of my heart
She's got what I'm missing
My ? just kissin
She turned me on and there's no turning me off
No no turnin' me on turnin' me on
Woaa
