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.
