first off don't say what that ' yupsiree ' guy said because some of it was perverted and the second part of it was curse words and extremely offensive. with that being said here is a much better way and a guide and short introduction to chinese tones.

well, ' Wo yao de zhen shi gen ni ' would probably work, literally ' I trully want to be with you ' its a more basic way to say it but i think it gives the right impression.
or ' wo yao de zhen shi gen ni yi qi '

' wo xiang de zhen shi gen ni ' would be about the samething.

Pronunciation guide:

Wo = pronunced like english W sound with the letter O after it

Yao = the ' ao ' in chinese is prounced like the ' ow ' from the english word cow. so replace the c from cow with a english y sound like yow and thats how its pronunced

De = pronunced like the english slang ' Duh '

Zhen = the ' zh ' is pronunced like the ' J ' from the english word job. put the ' un ' as in the english word gun after that j from job sound like ' jun ' and thats pretty close to right

Shi = the ' sh ' is pronunced like the ' sh ' from the word shut up, the whole word ' shi ' is actually pronunced similiar to the english word ' sure ' except it doesn't have U ish sound in it, sort of like when you hush someone by saying shhhhhhh in english it sounds alot like that.

Gen = is pronunced almost exactly like the english word ' Gun '

Ni = is pronunced like the english word ' knee ' thats why people often write it as nee.

Yiqi = the ' eechee ' ee like in the name Lee then chee like in the word you've probably is suppose to mean energy in chinese chi , the ' i ' in chinese is usually pronunced like the ' ee ' from the name lee, the y in yi isn't exactly sounded.
the ' q ' in chinese is prounced similiar to the english ' ch ' but the tongue should be floating close to the teeth when the ' q ' sound is produced. yiqi = ee chee

and the second phrase ' wo xiang de zhen shi gen ni ' is all the same words but ' xiang ' xiang is pronunced the english word ' she ' and the ' Ung ' from the english word lung.
put them together ' she ung ' thats how xiang is pronunced.

if you need further help you can always type mandarin pronunciation in google search and that should find many sites with audio pronunciation guides. but in chinese you have to use the correct tone for each word or it will mean something else completely. there are four tones and one neutral tone in mandarin chinese.

Each tone completely changes the meaning of the word. the tone is the changes of the pitch in the voice. In chinese these tones are extremely important to pronunce correctly. but the only place you can practice the tones would be in a audio pronunciation guide for a reference to these words i'll give you their tones.

wo = 3rd tone it falls then raises sharply
yao = 4th tone it starts out at high or mid range then falls sharply
de = neutral tone it has no stress and is uttered quickly
zhen = 1st tone this tone is high and even tone
shi = 2nd tone it starts out a mid range then raises upward
gen = 1st tone high and even
ni = 3rd tone falls then raises sharply
xiang = 3rd tone again
yiqi= yi = 1st tone high even qi = 2nd tone mid to raising


wo = I
yao = want/need
de= possessive particle word like ' of '
zhen = true zhenshi also means trully
shi = to be
gen = with
ni = you
xiang = would like
yiqi = together, simultaneously

Note, I wrote the tones as a reference for you in case you wanted to look them up to better understand them.

Note, If two or more 3rd tones are said together without a pause or break in the sentence then all of the 3rd tones will change to 2nd tones Except the last 3rd tone in the sequence which will remain a 3rd tone.

Also be aware that chinese is not such a simple language like english because of the tones in small differences in similiar sounds with different meanings its not possible to just memorize the sounds quickly and say them like someone would in a language in english. but as long as you pronunce the sounds close to right and the tones close to right then it will be ok.

I hope I contributed to your question. take care

1.)WO3 JEN1 DE4 XIANG3 GEN1 NI3 ZAI4 YI4 QI3

2.)WO3 HEN3 XIANG3 GEN1 NI3 ZAI4 YI3 QI3

Wo - "i or me"
jen de xiang or hen xiang - "really want"
gen ni zai yi qi - "to be with you"

(i recommend you choose number 1. It's much stronger emotion!)
