Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yes, You Do
Baby if you wanna keep it
Don't Act Crazy
Ain't Got No Time
For Nothing Shady
Nothing Shady
That you really ain't here to talk
You a dime to the second degree
You ain't nothing but a PTY
Please tell me you ain't got a man
But if you do I don't give a damn
So why don't we get up and leave
And maybe you can come with me
Show Me Your Love
I got to be the only one
Show Me Your Love
I got to be the only one
Pretty baby don't you lie to me
I just caught to sneaking a peak at me
Do you really like what you see
There more where that came from if go with me
Pretty baby let me hold your hand
I just really wanna be your man
If you wanna we can give it a change
I just want you to love me

The first verse conveys that he is drawn to her and wants her to be genuine and committed, warning her not to act crazy or be involved in anything shady. He is not interested in any games or deceit.
In the second verse, he emphasizes that he can tell by the way she carries herself that she is not interested in just talking, but rather wants something more intimate. He describes her as a dime, meaning she is extremely attractive, but also refers to her as a "PTY," which could be an abbreviation for pretty young thing or perhaps an abbreviation for a less flattering phrase like "party girl" or "plaything." He then further expresses that he doesn't care if she has a man or not, indicating his strong desire for her.
The chorus drives home his plea for her love, repeating the phrase "Show me your love" and stating that he wants to be the only one in her life. He wants her to be honest about her feelings and desires, and in turn, promises to love her genuinely. The repetition of the chorus reinforces his earnest longing for her affection.
