Lyrics
IN THE RIGHT MOOD
(Timothy Brickley & David Rheins)
I invited her over but she couldn’t come;
she said it was too early for love.
She said she’d be by later, if I wanted her to,
I told her I was always ready to run.
But now, I’m all alone, waiting at home
and I’m wondering if she’s going to be true.
Oh baby, maybe I can satisfy you,
‘cuz you know I’m always in the right mood.
In the right mood. (Come on baby, let’s have a good time.)
In the right mood. (Let’s boogie away the night.)
In the right mood. (My parents are out-of-town.)
In the right mood. (Oh, darling, don’t stop now.)
She finally showed up as I was starting to leave;
I changed my mind and I asked her to stay.
She rolled me on my sofa and she broke my vase,
I told her, honey get ready to pay.
Then we got it on and had a lot of fun,
I turned her over and I heard her say;
Oh baby, maybe I can satisfy you,
‘cuz you know I’m always in the right mood.
In the right mood. (I’m burning, my skin’s on fire.)
In the right mood. (I’m lusting with hot desire.)
In the right mood. (I’d love to love you right.)
In the right mood. (Come on, honey, spend the night.)
