[Intro]
T.U.G
Jhené
One for the trucks
[Chorus]
If you buy me a promise ring
I'll give you my everything
Yes or no, boy?
Don't you say "maybe"
Come be my baby and I'll be your girl
Promise ring or…
Jacob, watch, that's the way to win my heart
I'm hanging on and you're making me crazy
Come be my baby and I'll be your girl
[Verse 1]
Sometimes I feel so unsure
Thinkin' my baby don't love me no more
And that's when I get to trippin'
Accuse him of things that are all in my head
I don't want to feel insecure but sayin' it ain't enough
Show me what's up, some kind of token of love
It don't have to cost that much
Make me blush and slide one on my finger
[Chorus]
If you buy me a promise ring
I'll give you my everything
Yes or no, boy?
Don't you say "maybe"
Come be my baby and I'll be your girl
Promise ring or…
Jacob, watch, that's the way to win my heart
I'm hanging on and you're making me crazy
Come be my baby and I'll be your girl
[Verse 2]
Lately, I don't know the deal
I need something a young girl can feel
When it's not what it seems to a girl like me
It's the simple things that mean
More than a house on a hill
You'll bring me peace of mind
With something that shines
I feel like forever your dime
Check yes to love letter for one step better
So it feels like forever
You're mine, baby
After my birthday, the rose withers away
After Valentine, sometimes your heart ain't mine
After Christmas, when every gift is unwrapped
I still need a little more than that
[Chorus]
If you buy me a promise ring
I'll give you my everything
Yes or no, boy?
Don't you say "maybe"
Come be my baby and I'll be your girl
Promise ring or…
Jacob watch, that's the way to win my heart
I'm hanging on and you're making me crazy
Come be my baby and I'll be your girl
[Bridge]
Platinum, gold or silver
Baby, I don't really mind
'Cause only love can make it shine
Let's make this official
Don't you think it's about time
For us to take it there, be the perfect pair?
'Cause I wanna be by your side
[Chorus]
If you buy me a promise ring
I'll give you my everything
Yes or no, boy?
Don't you say "maybe"
Come be my baby and I'll be your girl
Promise ring or…
Jacob watch, that's the way to win my heart
I'm hanging on and you're making me crazy
Come be my baby and I'll be your girl
