Come On Down Lyrics
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1: Chilli]
If you need a little tenderness
Can't find it nowhere else
If you want a little something sweet
You just come to me
If you're hungry for some love at night
I'll fix you up just right
There's a tender place just down the way where you can stay
And I'm sayin'
[Chorus]
Come on down
Where the water tastes sweet, yeah
Dive into my ocean
Bring your love to me
Come on down, come on down
Where the lovin' feels right
Door is always open, open all night
Come down (Baby)
Baby, won't you come on down?
[Verse 2: Chilli]
I can take you where you need to go
Take you there nice and slow
To a place where feelings run so deep
You just run to me
I can lead you to a special kiss
Fulfill your every wish
There's a place I know just down the road where you should go
And I'm sayin'
Come on down
Where the water tastes sweet
Dive into my ocean
Bring your love to me
Come on down, oh, yeah, yeah
Where the lovin' feels right (It's gonna feel alright)
Door is always open, open all night
Come down (Come on down, baby)
Baby, won't you come on down?
[Bridge: Chilli]
Ooh, I can take you to where the love flows like wine (Yeah, yeah)
I can show you my deepest secrets inside (Yeah, yeah)
And you can take me just where I wanna be
So come here and get close
And, baby, give me what I need the most
Come, come down
[Verse 3: Chilli]
If you need a little tenderness
Can't find it nowhere else
If you want a little something sweet
You just come to me
If you're hungry for some love at night
I'll fix you up just right
There's a tender place just down the way where you can stay
And I'm sayin'
Come down (Come on down, come on down, ooh)
Where the water tastes sweet
Dive into my ocean (Oh)
Bring your love to me
Come on down, oh, yeah, yeah
Where the lovin' feels right (It's gonna feel alright)
Door is always open, open all night (You can have it all night)
[Post-Chorus]
Come down (Come on down)
Yeah, come to my ocean, baby
Come down (Come on down)
Where the water feels, feels so right, yeah
Come down (Come on down)
Yeah, yeah
Come down (Oh, yeah, yeah)
It feels all right
[Outro]
All you gotta do is come to me
Oh baby, baby, come down on me
Where the water, water tastes so sweet
Just come to me, come to me, you're in need
Come on down

I went into the booth and attempted to do it, because the verses were written [by Diane Warren] for me. I came out and said, “Diane, I’m sorry but I can’t do this!” [laughs] She is an amazing writer, and I love her because she respected my views. I told her to give it to Chili because it was such a sexy song. “Red Light Special” [from 1994’s CrazySexyCool] worked for me, but not “Come On Down.”

I don’t know who she originally wrote this song for, but she told me on the phone that whoever it was didn’t want to sing it. I loved everything about “Come On Down” because you know what it’s talking about, but it was very nicely subliminal. I loved the country feel of the record, so I couldn’t wait. And she was so excited that I wanted to do it. She wasn’t actually in studio with me ‘cause we recorded it in Atlanta and she was in LA. But I was happy that she was so happy with it. It’s definitely one of my favorite songs because I do like a little touch of country. It reminded me of something Shania Twain would do."
