Lyrics
I be BBMin' you, tellin' you
All the things I'm gonna do to you
When you get home, baby
Makin' up, then yellin', ooh
Nothing I would rather do
Than flirtin', talkin' dirty
You love me, hate me
It's like it's your job to work me up
Treatin' me nice and then treatin' me rough
And I don't know why but I can't get enough
I like it, I like it
And I know that I'm making you nuts
Middle of the night and when I'm waking up
I don't know why but you can't get enough
You like it, you like it
Be my BBM baby
Middle of the night
Wakin' up to write
Be my BBM baby
I don't wanna fight

Yeah, yeah, always on my mind
Yeah, yeah, when will you be mine?
I be BBMin' you, lettin' you
Love me in your letters, ooh
The way that you write is crazy
Your typin' is poetical
Red roses in your message, oh
I think I met my match in you
Text me, chase me
It's like it's your job to work me up
Treatin' me nice and then treatin' me rough
And I don't know why but I can't get enough
I like it, I like it
