Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Already with your friends
You're gonna hit the town
They'll be here any minute now
Oh and baby I don't know
Who keeps blowin' up your phone
But you've hit decline
You say that it's your boyfriend
But y'all ain't been doin' too good
Well that's good
And if you're wonderin' if you oughtta break up with him
Baby you should
Yeah you should
Drop everything, your plans, your man
I don't see a ring on your pretty little hand
Drop some plastic on the tab, my Chevy into gear
Drop your keys by my door, your coat on my floor
We'll go from there, drop everything
Leave your car here at the bar
You can pick it up tomorrow
Girl I'll bring ya back
Baby you can crash
At my place and drop some ice
In a glass of whatever you like
Drop a needle, put some Marvin Gaye on
Let's get it on and
Drop everything, your plans, your man
I don't see a ring on your pretty little hand
Drop some plastic on the tab, my Chevy into gear
Drop your keys by my door, your coat on the floor
We'll go from there, drop everything
Your friends say they'll forgive ya
Your man is gonna miss ya
But I just gotta kiss you right now
So right now
Drop everything, your plans, your man
I don't see a ring on your pretty little hand
Drop some plastic on the tab, my Chevy into gear
Drop your keys by my door, your coat on my floor
We'll go from there, drop everything
Your plans, your man
I don't see a ring on your pretty little hand
Drop everything
Drop Everything
Carlton Anderson's song "Drop Everything" is about seizing the moment with someone you have a strong connection with. The song tells the story of a woman who had plans with her friends but decided to ditch them because things were not going well with her boyfriend. The persona, who has been into her for a while, seizes the moment and takes advantage of the situation. The persona urges the woman to forget about her boyfriend, the plans she made with her friends, and to drop everything, including her coat and keys. He wants her to come over to his place where they can have a good time together.
In the first verse, the persona starts by pointing out that the woman has plans with her friends, but he feels there is something more she would rather do than spend time with them. He assumes that it’s her man who keeps calling her, but she keeps declining his calls. The persona advises the woman that if things are not going well in her current relationship, she should break up with him. In the chorus, the persona urges the woman to drop everything, including her plans and her man, and come over to his place where they can have fun.
