[Verse 1]
I can't believe I'm still doing this
I told myself a month ago that I'd be through with this
I'm looking at my phone, and wondering if you're home
I'm kinda tipsy, I ain't tryna sleep alone
Somebody told me that some other girl was hugging you
Baby, you know I'm the one that should be loving you
You know we had a thing, baby, it's such a shame
I still get crazy every time I hear your name

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I know it's complicated
But you know I'm impatient

[Chorus]
3 AM
Yo, I'm texting you once again
Even though I'm hanging with my friends
I can't help it, I can't help myself, no
3 AM
I might be looking for a late night friend
And baby, I can't get you out my head
I can't help it, I can't help myself, no

[Verse 2]
Kinda stressing like I'm gonna have a heart attack
It's been an hour and you haven't even hit me back
Baby, keep it real, tell me what's the deal
'Cause I miss you, you don't know how this feels

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I know it's complicated
This always happens when I'm wasted

[Chorus]
3 AM
Yo, I'm texting you once again
Even though I'm hanging with my friends
I can't help it, I can't help myself, no
3 AM
I might be looking for a late night friend
And baby, I can't get you out my head
I can't help it, I can't help myself, no

[Bridge]
I know, I know, I know it's so wrong
Somebody take away my phone
'Cause I've been drinking all night long
All night long, all night long
I know, I know, I know it's so wrong
Somebody take away my phone
'Cause I've been drinking all night long
All night long, all night long

[Chorus]
3 AM
Yo, I'm texting you once again
Even though I'm hanging with my friends
I can't help it, I can't help myself, no
3 AM
I might be looking for a late night friend
And baby, I can't get you out my head
I can't help it, I can't help myself, no

Meghan Trainor

Meghan Trainor is a pop singer-songwriter from Nantucket. Before launching her solo career, she wrote songs for the likes of Sia and Sabrina Carpenter. She entered pop stardom with the controversial but danceable body-positivity anthem “All About That Bass,” which led her 2015 debut LP, Title.

In 2016, Meghan released her sophomore effort Thank You, which was preceded by the smash single “NO.” Peaking at #3 on the Hot 100, top 20 track “Me Too” & the reggae-influenced “Better” supported the release of the album.

Staying reasonably quiet in 2017, Trainor dropped the single “I’m A Lady” for the “The The Lost Village.” Trainor underwent vocal surgery during the year and needed time to rest her voice before returning to the limelight.
