“Show Up” lyrics
Don't tell me, baby, show up
You say you'll call me Tuesday, and it's Thursday night
You say you miss me, and you do it by text, all right
You say you'll meet my mama, she's been cooking twice
She's got a roast in the oven and she's asking why
I don't need the roses, I don't need the ring
I don't need the champagne or the sweet talking
I just need a man who knows where I live
And pulls up when he said he would
You got a pretty mouth
Got a pretty line
But I'm a grown woman
And I'm running out of time
Don't tell me, baby, show up
Don't write me a poem, just show up
I don't need a speech, I need your car in the drive
Don't tell me, baby, show up on time
(Show up, show up)
Seven o'clock, show up
(Show up, show up)
Seven o'clock, show up
(Show up)
I heard you're good at talking to the boys at the bar
I heard you told 'em I'm the one, that's nice, that's far
Now tell it to my doorbell, tell it to my porch
Tell it to the dinner that is getting cold, of course
Every other fella had a reason and a plan
I'm looking for the one who says "I'm here" and stands
You can keep your promises, you can keep your sighs
Just knock three times
You got a pretty mouth
Got a pretty line
But I'm a grown woman
And I'm running out of time
Don't tell me, baby, show up
Don't write me a poem, just show up
I don't need a speech, I need your car in the drive
Don't tell me, baby, show up on time
(Knock, knock) Who's there
(Knock, knock) It's you
(Knock, knock) With flowers
Baby, that'll do
(Knock, knock) On time
Well, look at you
Don't tell me, baby, show up
Don't write me a poem, just show up
I don't need a speech, I need your car in the drive
Don't tell me, baby, show up on time
(Show up, show up)
Seven o'clock, show up
But I'm a grown woman
And I'm running out of time
