[Intro]
Hey girl (Hey)
You know I got you, right? (Yeah)
I just wish I could do a little more for ya (I know, it's cool)

[Verse 1]
If I had an extra dollar, I'd buy you the world
But with the change I'm making
Know I just can't, give it to you, girl (Uh, oh)
And when I get a minute, I'll spend my life with you
But all the time I spend grindin'
Just ain't enough for me and you

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I know you've been around, holding me down for a while now
And you never ever complain about
Nothing 'cause you know I would take you out
And make you smile, somehow some way
Even though I know it's not much today
But I know we always got tomorrow
If I gotta beg and borrow, I'ma make you happy, baby

[Chorus]
I promise
Soon as I get my money right, I'ma take good care of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Just like I'm supposed to
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Baby, you believe me, don't you?
I promise
Soon as I get my money right, I'ma take good care of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Just like I'm supposed to
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Baby, you believe me, don't you?
I promise
[Verse 2]
Ayy, now if I had the power, I'd make your dreams come true
But when I barely sleep and hardly eat
At the end of the day I'm through, yeah, ah
If I could tell the future, I still wouldn't change a thing (Oh no)
Because I know no matter what I got, girl, it still won't be the same

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I know you've been around, holding me down for a while now
And you never ever complain about
Nothing 'cause you know I would take you out
And make you smile, somehow, some way
Even though I know it's not much today
But I know we always got tomorrow
If I gotta beg and borrow, I'ma make you happy, baby

[Chorus]
I promise
Soon as I get my money right, I'ma take good care of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh) Yeah, yeah
Just like I'm supposed to
(Oh, oh-oh, oh) Yeah, yeah
Baby, you believe me, don't you?
I promise
Soon as I get my money right, I'ma take good care of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh) Take good care, baby
Just like I'm supposed to
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Baby, you believe me, don't you?
I promise
[Bridge]
(Ayy)
My dating days are dead and gone
(Ayy)
I already know that you're the one
(Oh, oh)
I'm doin' everything for us
(Oh, oh)
I can't go nowhere else but up
(Ayy)
Together we could reach the sky
(Ayy)
As long as I got you by my side
(Oh, oh)
Everything is gonna be alright
(Oh, oh)
Just watch me, baby

[Chorus]
I promise
Soon as I get my money right, I'ma take good care of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh) Just like
Just like I'm supposed to
(Oh, oh-oh, oh) I'm supposed to, yeah
Baby, you believe me, don't you?
I promise (Soon as)
Soon as I get my money right, I'ma take good care of you, you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Just like I'm supposed to
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Baby, you believe me, don't you?
(Baby, you believe me)
[Outro]
I promise
Soon as I get my money right, I'ma take good care of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Just like I'm supposed to
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Baby, you believe me, don't you?
I promise
Soon as I get my money right, I'ma take good care of you
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Just like I'm supposed to
(Oh, oh-oh, oh)
Baby, you believe me, don't you?
I promise
