Werk
Jasmine V Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You can't be pushing up on it, you better werk if you
Want it (x4)

Don't even call me, if you got about 2 or 3 other boo's
Cuz if you want me, you're gonna have to give more than usual
Won't be no playing, boy my time is just way too
Valuable
I don't like, so don't try, to be like the last guy,
Way too comfortable

Pre chorus-
H-h-hommie, if you wanna stand right here next to me
Gotta be the only, only chick in this room, this room you'll see
So if you want me, gotta give, gotta give me your
Everything
Cuz I need the right guy, to be on the right side
Giving it all to me

Chorus-
Do you really want me? I demand your responsibility
Do you really want me? takes a lot of moxy to bring me to my knees
Do you really want me? Get ready, get ready boy
Use your elbow grease, do you really want me?
Prove yourself, and make it real to me
You betta werk (x5)
You can't be pushing up on it, you better werk if you
Want it (x4)
Yeah what ya gonna do baby, tell me, tell me what ya
Gonna do baby? (x4)
WERK!

In my ear boy, make it clear to me, cuz I ain't gon get a smile unless you
Keep it straight g with me
I'm more than cuteness, way too old to be livin in make believe
So don't be the wrong type cuz I have a say gotta find who's right for me

Pre chorus-
H-h-hommie, if ya really got just what it takes
Why don't you show me? Go ahead
And why don't you make my day
Cuz I've been waiting long enough
Now it's time to take your place
Cuz I need the right guy, to be on the right side
Giving it all to me

(Chorus)

Stepping to a cutie all the way turnt up
Talking bout' blue collars, manual labor
Gotta get a little dirty, if you want my love
Cuz I'm worth it, yea I'm so worth it yea!

Let me see ya, WERK (x9)




Werk it out now (x8)
YOU BETTA WERK!

She's telling her love interest that if he wants her affection, he needs to show her that he's willing to put in the effort and work for it.

Jasmine V is making it clear that she is worth the extra work and that a real relationship requires a genuine effort from both parties. She demands that he proves himself and makes it real to her, giving her his everything.
