Wake Up Baby
[Verse 1]
Brrring, and the phone rings
I'm not really sleep
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
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
Mmm, I know you have important things to do
Wake up, wake up, wake up baby
Wake up baby, wake up
Mmm, don't you have, don't you have...
Wake up baby, wake up, wake up, wake up, wake up
You life is calling you, life is calling you
Wake up
