Song Lyrics[]
Wait up. Wait up, baby, please.
Wait up. Wait up, baby, please.
You break me up, you tear me apart
And leave my battered broken heart
Your ride will go through and I'm a fool.
I can't get it straight with you now.
Wait up. Wait up, baby, please.
Wait up. Wait up, baby, please.
I come home after workin' late
And find that you have gone away.
I'm down on my knees and I'm begging you please.
Come on girl, wait up for me 'cause
It might be warmer for you to be in bed now.
Yeah but all I'm asking
Is wait up for me instead. Hey!
Wait up. Wait up, baby, please. Nah-nah-nah
Oh, wait up. Wait up, baby, please.
(Instrumental break)
I see you shout and cry out loud
And come on home and find out
Your ride will go through and I'm a fool.
I can't get it straight with you now.
It might be warmer for you to be in bed now.
'Cause all I'm asking
Is wait up for me instead. Hey!
Wait up. Wait up, baby, please. Nah-nah-nah
Oh, wait up. Wait up, baby, please.
Oh-oh-oh-oh, la-la-la-la
Oh-oh-oh-oh, la-la-la-la
Come on, come on, come on now
Just wait on up.
Come on, come on, come on now
Just wait on up.
Wait on up, wait on up
I come home and you're not there now
Wait on up, wait on up
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh-oh-oh-oh, la-la-la-la
Oh-oh-oh-oh, la-la-la-la
Come on, come on, come on now
Just wait on up.
Come on, come on, come on now
Just wait on up.
