Craig David - '7 Days' (Live At The Jingle Bell Ball 2016)

3 December 2016, 22:40

Craig’s played loads of epic show over the years, but his superb set at the #CapitalJBB will absolutely go down in the history books!

Looking as stylish as ever, the UK chart legend was ready to impress as soon as he hit the stage at Capital’s Jingle Bell Ball with Coca-Cola, and judging by their screams and dancing we’re pretty sure this audience were suitably impressed.

With the #CapitalJBB being the UK’s biggest Christmas party, there had to be some dancefloor fillers on the set list, but also some smooth R&B classics for the crowd to sing along to and Craig made sure both were in plenty supply.

His debut album ‘Born To Do It’ is a superb record and this song is one of his most famous – so when everyone in the audience knew every word, we weren’t really too surprised

You can relive his amazing #CapitalJBB set by clicking play on the video below – it’s totally worth it, trust us!

As well as ‘Seven Days’, Craig David performed a number of his other huge hits, bringing the party to the #CapitalJBB stage.

Craig David ‘Seven Days’ Lyrics

On my way to see my friends
Who lived a couple blocks away from me (owh)
As I walked through the subway
It must have been about quarter past three
In front of me
Stood a beautiful honey with a beautiful body
She asked me for the time
I said it'd cost her name
A six digit number & a date with me tomorrow at nine

Did she decline? No
Didn't she mind? I don't think so
Was it for real? Damn sure
What was the deal? A pretty girl aged 24
So was she keen? She couldn't wait
Cinnamon queen? let me update
What did she say? She said she'd love to
Rendezvous
She asked me what we were gonna do
Said we'd start with a bottle of moet for two

Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday

Nine was the time
'cause I'll be getting mine
And she was looking fine
Smooth talker
She told me
She'd love to unfold me all night long
Ooh I loved the way she kicked it
From the front to back she flipped it (back she flipped it, ooh the
Way she
Kicked)
And I oh oh I yeah
Hope that she'd care
'cause I'm a man who'll always be there

Ooh yeah
I'm not a man to play around baby
Ooh yeah
'cause a one night stand isn't really fair
From the first impression girl hmm you don't seem to be like that
'cause there's no need to chat for there'll be plenty time for that
From the subway to my home
Endless ringing of my phone
When your feeling all alone
All you gotta do
Is just call me call me

Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday

Since I met this special lady
Ooh yeah
I can't get her off my mind
She's one of a kind
And I ain't about to deny it
It's a special kind of thing
With you-oh.......

Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday
I met this girl on Monday
Took her for a drink on Tuesday
We were making love by Wednesday
And on Thursday & Friday & Saturday we chilled on Sunday, Sunday Sunday Sunday....
