[Verse 1: Daniel Seavey]
Work all day, work all night
Might not get no sleep tonight
Baby, can you stay up?
We could talk, we could dance
Don't matter the circumstance
We don't let it change us

[Pre-Chorus: Corbyn Besson]
That's the beautiful thing about us
'Fore all the diamonds and rings, we got trust
Roll with me, get it right, faded on a summer night
Let's see where it takes us

[Chorus: Zach Herron & All]
I got real big plans, baby, for you and me
So love me for who I am and for who I'm gonna be
Ain't got everything you want, but got everything you need
So take a chance, take a chance on me
I got real big plans, baby, for you and me
So love me for who I am and for who I'm gonna be
Ain't got everything you want, but got everything you need
So take a chance, take a chance on me

[Post-Chorus: Zach Herron & Jack Avery]
I got real big plans
Hold up, hold up, baby
I got real big plans
Hold up, hold up, baby

[Verse 2: Jonah Marais]
Know you're tired, know you're down
Know you wanna leave this town
Baby, give me one year, yeah
Take my hand, take a leap
Girl, you gotta wait and see
Where I take it from here

[Pre-Chorus: Corbyn Besson, All]
That's the beautiful thing about you
I know that you'd do the same in my shoes
Never switch, never stop, I could see us at the top
Girl, why don't we go there?

[Chorus: Zach Herron & All]
I got real big plans, baby, for you and me
So love me for who I am and for who I'm gonna be
Ain't got everything you want, but got everything you need
So take a chance, take a chance on me
I got real big plans, baby, for you and me
So love me for who I am and for who I'm gonna be
Ain't got everything you want, but got everything you need
So take a chance, take a chance on me

[Post-Chorus: Zach Herron & Jack Avery, Daniel Seavey]
I got real big plans
Hold up, hold up, baby (Oh)
I got real big plans
Hold up, hold up, baby

[Bridge: Jonah Marais, Jack Avery, Daniel Seavey, Corbyn Besson]
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Take a chance on
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Just take a chance on
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Take a chance on
Take a chance on me

[Chorus: Zach Herron & Jack Avery, Daniel Seavey]
I got real big plans, baby, for you and me
So love me for who I am and for who I'm gonna be
Ain't got everything you want, but got everything you need (Baby)
So take a chance, take a chance on me

[Post-Chorus: Zach Herron & Jack Avery, Corbyn Besson, Jonah Marais]
I got real big plans
Hold up, hold up, baby (Take a chance on me)
I got real big plans (Take a chance on me)
Hold up, hold up, baby

[Outro: Zach Herron]
I got real big plans

Why Don’t We is a boy band consisting of Daniel Seavey, Zach Herron, Corbyn Besson, Jonah Marais and Jack Avery. The members individually gained recognition over social media by posting covers and doing live streams. Seavey was also a contestant on season 14 of the American TV show American Idol. The group started activities on September 27, 2016, with the release of their two singles “Taking You” and “Nobody Gotta Know” and EP Only The Beginning, shortly thereafter.

The band gained a lot of recognition from their 2017 single “Something Different”. They went on to release four EPs in that year, notably gaining recognition for their collaboration with YouTuber Logan Paul, who also directed several of their music videos at this time.

Their first release in 2018, the Ed Sheeran-written “Trust Fund Baby,” ranked #2 on the American iTunes Chart, and was the band’s highest achievement to that date. They released three singles in June, July and August of that year preceding their first full length album on August 31, 2018. “Talk”, the second pre-release, peaked at #1 on the American iTunes Chart, surpassing their personal record just five months later.
