Wake Up Baby

Jill Scott

Bring, and the phone rings
I'm not really asleep, it's him on the line
Calling me, he says he's on his way
And I can't wait, to see him
Wanna be with him then grandma comes
Creep creep into my room, oh quiet night
While I find my shoes

She then tells me
Babe this ain't the way
If he really cared for you
He wouldn't be calling so late

Wake up baby, wake up baby
He don't really care for you
Don't you have school in the morning
Wake up baby, wake up baby
He don't really care for you
I know you have important things to do

She says I'm old enough to know
How the loving flows
If he honks outside, if he waits in his car
Oh baby baby baby, he ain't seeing you
Like the jewel, like the flower you are

Just a new fix something to stick real quick
Hey don't be surprised at how I'm talkin' to you
You may not believe it now, I know
But once upon a time I was young and fine too

Wake up baby, wake up baby
He don't really care for you
I know you have school in the morning
Oh wake up, wake up baby, wake up, wake up baby
I know you have important things to do

Wake up, wake up, wake up baby
Wake up baby, wake up
Don't you have, don't you have
Wake up baby, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
You like this call for you, wake up
