Waitin' On You Lyrics


Yeah, uh, oh yeah
Sit right here, girl
Let me talk to you
'Bout some thing's that we've been going through
Let's do whatever girl and make it last
We've gotta take our time we can't move to fast
Now I'm not the type of cat to hit and run
(Oh, no)
Girl, I swear that you're the only one
But what I am girl is a lovin' man
While love is just wanna smack and smash that ass
Kick it fast
One, two what you wanna do?
(Ain't even gon' front girl, I wanna tear it up now)
Two, three tell me, what's it gonna be? You ain't gonna get
No peppey so you better keep watchin' TV
Look at you tryna play me like I'm loose
(Girl you've got it twisted, I'm here waitin' on you)

(Waitin' on you, waitin' on you, girl, you must be trippin')
(I'm here waitin' on you)
Baby girl, you know I'm stuck on you
And I'll do just what you want me to
Whatever it is I aim to please
For your love get on my knees
I wanna touch you right here
Kiss you right there
However you want it, baby
I don't care
But if the night's not right
Then that's okay
I love you anyway
Your JaJa's here to stay
One, two what you wanna do?
(Ain't even gon' front girl, I wanna tear it up now)
Two, three tell me, what's it gonna be? You ain't gonna get
No peppey so you better keep watchin' TV
Look at you tryna play me like I'm loose
(Girl you've got it twisted, I'm here waitin' on you)
(Waitin' on you, waitin' on you, girl, you must be trippin')
(I'm here waitin' on you)
One, two what you wanna do?
(Ain't even gon' front girl, I wanna tear it up now)
Two, three tell me, what's it gonna be? You ain't gonna get
No peppey so you better keep watchin' TV
Look at you tryna play me like I'm loose
(Girl you've got it twisted, I'm here waitin' on you)
(Waitin' on you, waitin' on you, girl, you must be trippin')
(I'm here waitin' on you)
After all this time
I've been with you, baby
Do you wanna act up, stop talkin' slick
You talkin' crazy
(Crazy)
You know you mean the world to me
Out of all the places in this world
There's not one place, I'd rather be
So stop actin' like you wanna be alone
If you felt that way we would of never fallen
And if the night's not right
Then that's okay, I love you anyway
Your JaJa's here to stay
One, two what you wanna do?
(Ain't even gon' front girl, I wanna tear it up now)
Two, three tell me, what's it gonna be? You ain't gonna get
No peppey so you better keep watchin' TV
Look at you tryna play me like I'm loose
(Girl you've got it twisted, I'm here waitin' on you)
(Waitin' on you, waitin' on you, girl, you must be trippin')
(I'm here waitin' on you)
One, two what you wanna do?
(Ain't even gon' front girl, I wanna tear it up now)
Two, three tell me, what's it gonna be? You ain't gonna get
No peppey so you better keep watchin' TV
Look at you tryna play me like I'm loose
(Girl you've got it twisted, I'm here waitin' on you)
(Waitin' on you, waitin' on you, girl, you must be trippin')
(I'm here waitin' on you)
One, two what you wanna do?
(Ain't even gon' front girl, I wanna tear it up now)
Two, three tell me, what's it gonna be? You ain't gonna get
No peppey so you better keep watchin' TV
Look at you tryna play me like I'm loose
(Girl you've got it twisted, I'm here waitin' on you)
(Waitin on you, waitin' on you, girl, you must be trippin')
(I'm here waitin' on you)

Steve Earle (born Stephen Fain Earle on January 17, 1955, in San Antonio, Texas) is a singer-songwriter best known for his country music and rock 'n roll tinged "alt-country." He is also a published writer, a keen political activist (particularly in protesting against the death penalty in the U.S., as in his song "Ellis Unit One" from the movie Dead Man Walking), and has written and directed a play. Earle also had small roles on the HBO television shows "The Wire" and "Treme". His sister Stacey Earle is also an acclaimed singer-songwriter, as is his most recent wife, Allison Moorer, whom he wed in 2005. His first son from an earlier marriage is the singer-songwriter Justin Townes Earle, named for Earle's hero Townes Van Zandt.

In 1975, at the age of 20, Earle moved to Nashville and began working as a songwriter. In these early days, he recorded with Guy Clark and Emmylou Harris. He finally scored a country hit in 1981, writing Johnny Lee's top ten cut "When You Fall In Love." Earle's early work as a performer tended towards the rockabilly sound, popular at the time. In 1986, his first proper album Guitar Town was a critical and commercial success. It sold over 300,000 copies and led some to herald him as a saviour of country music.

Earle long struggled with drug abuse. His addiction eventually caused a departure from performing and recording after he was dropped by MCA in 1991. Whilst in jail on drug and firearm charges, he kicked the habit and returned to music after his release in 1994.

Earle's "second, post-jail, musical career" has been more stylistically diverse than his early material, dipping in acoustic, bluegrass, and roots rock sounds. I Feel Alright and Transcendental Blues met with good reviews and decent sales. 2002's somewhat controversial Jerusalem was one of the first albums to directly address the September 11 attacks. It brought Earle's leftist views to media attention, especially the song "John Walker's Blues."

His sister Stacey Earle is also an acclaimed singer-songwriter, as is his most recent wife, Allison Moorer, whom he wed in 2005.

His latest album of original material I'll Never Get Out Of This World Alive was released in 2011. Songfacts reports that one of the tracks, This City, got played on HBO’s New Orleans based show Treme several months before the album‘s release. Earle, who plays a recurring street musician, composed the song especially for the drama series.

Earle has also released a tribute album of material written by friend and mentor Townes Van Zandt, entitled Townes.
