Don't Call Me Baby
Kreesha Turner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And stop begging, can't you see I've run outta lies?
Stop showing up at my favorite restaurant
And dropping by my work saying you just wanna talk
Don't call me baby
Don't call me baby
Anymore
Stop running baby cause you've run outta time
(Stop running baby cause you've run outta time)
And stop asking, you know all the reasons why
(Stop asking, you know all the reasons why)
Stop staring through me like you know who I am
(Stop staring through me like you know who I am)
When you don't know me, you don't know me, barely knew me then
(You don't know me, you don't know me, you don't know me you don't)
And don't call me baby
Don't call me baby
Anymore
Hey, hey, hey
Walking away now, walking away now baby
Oh baby
Hey, hey, hey
Walking away now, walking away now baby
Oh baby
Don't call my number
Don't call me over
Don't call me baby
Anymore
What you gonna do my love?
What you gonna do?
What you gonna say this time?
What's your excuse?
When you gonna break my heart?
When you gonna break?
Nobody hurts like you
Stop staring through me like you know who I am
When you don't know me, you don't know me, barely knew me then
(You don't know me, you don't know me, you don't know me you don't)
And don't call me baby
Don't call me baby
Anymore
Hey, hey, hey
Walking away now, walking away now baby
Oh baby
Hey, hey, hey
Walking away now, walking away now baby
Oh baby
Don't call my number
Don't call me over
Don't call me baby

In the song "Don't Call Me Baby" by Kreesha Turner, she speaks to a former lover who has been persistent in trying to win her back. She is tired of his constant attempts and just wants him to stop. She clearly states that she doesn't want him to call her baby anymore, and she doesn't want him to call her over, call her number, or try to contact her in any way. This message is emphasized throughout the song, as Kreesha mentions the ways he's tried to contact her, such as showing up at her favorite restaurant, dropping by her work, and staring at her like he knows who she is.
The lyrics capture a sense of the singer's frustration and exhaustion with the situation. She feels that the guy is wasting his time and that she's run out of lies to tell him why she can't be with him anymore. Ultimately, the song is about setting boundaries and making it clear when someone is not welcome in your life. Kreesha is not sugar-coating her words; instead, she is straight-up telling her ex-lover what she wants and demands.

I'll never forgive the public for not blowing this lady up the way she deserved.
@willyboy6126
Yeah, I don't get it either...she should have been a much bigger star!
@octo.lina69
She was born in Canada so it'll eventually become underrated..sad state of affairs when it comes to Canadian artists.
Also, check out Virginia to Vegas❣️✌️
