Lyrics
I wanna love you
I have a desire to love you.
Pretty young thing
You are a beautiful young person.
You need some loving
You require affection and care.
Pretty young thing
You are a beautiful young person.
You don't get enough babe
You don't receive sufficient love, and I want to address that.
If you're wondering
If you are curious or uncertain.
Swear I'd give it all, it ain't nothing
I promise to give everything I have; it's significant.
I
(Repetition; no specific meaning)
I put that on my life
I solemnly affirm this commitment with my life as collateral.
Alright
Expressing agreement or affirmation.
Cross my heart and hope to die
A serious promise, emphasizing sincerity.
Give you something you ain't had in a while (Had in a while)
I will provide something you haven't experienced in a long time.
Tell me, tell me what I gotta do
Asking what actions are needed to win your affection.
Tell me, tell me what I gotta prove
Asking what evidence or gestures are required to prove my commitment.
To a pretty young thing
Referring to you as an attractive young person.
Ah give me something
Expressing a desire for reciprocation.
I been wondering would you give it up babe
Wondering if you would be willing to be intimate.
Ah pretty young thing
Addressing you again as an appealing young person.
You know how it goes, when I'm on the road
Explaining the challenges of being away and missing you.
Wishing you were here, it don't feel fair I'm all alone
Expressing the unfairness of feeling alone while on the road.
You should be right here
You should be with me at this moment.
Please don't be mad when I get home
Requesting not to be upset upon returning home.
Just let me turn you up, give you love
Expressing a desire to elevate your mood and provide love.
Oh I sure hope I'm enough, oh baby
Expressing hope that the love provided is sufficient.
Driving me crazy
Your actions are causing intense emotions within me.
Girl put down that phone, I'll put you on to all this loving you been missing lately
Asking you to focus on our connection rather than the phone.
I
(Repetition; no specific meaning)
I put that on my life
Reiterating the commitment with one's life at stake.
Alright
Expressing agreement or affirmation.
Cross my heart and hope to die
A serious promise, emphasizing sincerity.
Give you something you ain't had in a while (Had in a while)
I will provide something you haven't experienced in a long time.
I
(Repetition; no specific meaning)
I put that on my life
Reiterating the commitment with one's life at stake.
Alright
Expressing agreement or affirmation.
Cross my heart and hope to die
A serious promise, emphasizing sincerity.
Give you something you ain't had in a while (Had in a while)
I will provide something you haven't experienced in a long time.
Tell me, tell me what I gotta do
Asking what actions are needed to win your affection.
Tell me, tell me what I gotta prove
Asking what evidence or gestures are required to prove my commitment.
