Let's ride
Let's ride
Let's ride
Let's ride
Rev the Lamborghini roll up in a blue bikini
beaches lookin' super cute and freaky
All my friends are princesses
We keep it rich and creamy
Ice cubes on our tongues
Because we like to keep it freezy
Lam-to-Lamborghini girls out on the right side
Chauffeur stayed at home
Because my girl wanted to ride
Lookin' lux and tastin' plux
I'm feelin' so alive
Want to take it to the highway
Come on let's go for a drive
All my life
I've been waiting for a good time a good time
Let me ride let me ride
