[Verse 1]
I met you on a Monday
You were drinking white wine
Pale sky, text goodbye
I lent you my jacket, remember?
It was such a cold night for summer
You said it's all about the way you sing the top line
Sing it like you really mean it
I sing it like I really mean it

[Chorus]
I really don't stand a chance, I really don't stand a chance
Girl, I just wanna dance, girl, I just wanna dance

[Verse 2]
Twenty two, gorgeous, God bless
Tell me that you've been away to Texas
We can split the bottle if you need to
That's the real truth
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your daddy used to listen to James Brown
New York City, summertime
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your daddy used to listen to James Brown
New York City, summertime
[Chorus]
Now, I'm not tryna make a move on you
But you got every eye glued to ya in the whole room
Every one here thinks that they need ya
Every one here thinks that they need you

[Interlude]
We can split the bottle if you need to
That's the real truth

[Chorus]
And every one here thinks that they need you
Every one here thinks that they need you
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your daddy used to listen to James Brown
New York City, summertime
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your mama used to listen to James Brown
Your daddy used to listen to James Brown
New York City, summertime
