Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Maybe you can be my baby
Hold me close under the covers
Kiss me boy and drive me crazy
Be my, be my, be my
Be my, be my baby
Be my, be my, be my
If you know how to treat me
You know how to touch me
Baby then you'll get the chance
The chance to love me
It's obvious I want to be into you
But it all depends on all the things you do
'Cause babe I promise, I promise
If you keep it real with me
Be honest, be honest
You can get anything you want
That you want babe
Just show me everything I need to see
I'll give you anything boy
If you know how to be my lover
Maybe you can be my baby
Hold me close under the covers
Kiss me boy and drive me crazy
Be my, be my, be my
Be my, be my baby
Be my, be my, be my
Baby, and drive me crazy
I'll give you all of my trust
If you don't mess this up
You ain' tryna get no other girls
When you in the club
All you got is eyes for me
I'm the only girl you see
So if you treat me right just the way that I want you
Oh baby boy I promise that I'll be on you
Oh oh oh oh oh on you
Night to the mo-oh-oh-oh-oh-orning
If you know how to be my lover
Maybe you can be my baby
Hold me close under the covers
Kiss me boy and drive me crazy
Be my, be my, be my
Be my, be my baby
Be my, be my, be my
Baby, and drive me crazy
I'll give you all of my trust
If you don't mess this up
You ain' tryna get no other girls
When you in the club
All you got is eyes for me
I'm the only girl you see
If you know how to be my lover
Maybe you can be my baby
Hold me close under the covers
Kiss me boy and drive me crazy
Be my, be my, be my
Be my, be my baby
Be my, be my, be my
Baby, and drive me crazy

She should've released this as her single instead of Problem. This is easily one of her best songs. It's a shame it didn't get any publicity. Every time I play this people ask what song it is.
@thatnewghoulshow7690
No she shouldn't of. This is an amazing song but it wouldn't of chatted with this song. Problem reached 1 within 37 minutes so I doubt it. She made a smart one releasing problem
@GrandeStyles566
Problem is her best charting and selling single ever . She made the right choice lol
@jok3372
+That new ghoul show 1u61
@nctbpsvt1764
I agree with you. This is one of my favorite songs by her. That's just my opinion though
@nctbpsvt1764
I thought Break Free was her best charting. I guess im wrong then 😅
@DanicaStarr
She should make more songs like this
@BlackGirlWithSocialAnxiety
I was saying the exact same thing
@peliupuleiataua7946
