Dear Future Husband
Meghan Trainor Lyrics

Dear future husband
The singer is addressing her future husband to let him know what will be expected of him if he wants to be her life-long partner.

Here's a few things you'll need to know if you wanna be My one and only all my life
The singer explains that in order to be her one and only partner, her future husband needs to be aware of certain things that are important to her.

Take me on a date I deserve a break And don't forget the flowers every anniversary
The singer requests her future husband to take her out on dates, acknowledge her efforts, and celebrate their anniversary with flowers.

'Cause if you'll treat me right I'll be the perfect wife Buying groceries Buy-buying what you need
The singer promises to be an ideal wife if her future husband treats her properly, including buying groceries and everything else he needs.

You got that 9 to 5 But, baby, so do I So don't be thinking I'll be home and baking apple pies I never learned to cook But I can write a hook Sing along with me Sing-sing along with me (hey)
The singer reminds her future husband that she also has a job, and he shouldn't assume that she'll be the one doing all the housework alone. She may not be a skilled cook, but she can create music and sing with him.

You gotta know how to treat me like a lady Even when I'm acting crazy Tell me everything's alright
The singer emphasizes that she wants her future husband to treat her with respect and dignity, even when she's overreacting, and he should reassure her that everything will be okay.

If you wanna get that special lovin' Tell me I'm beautiful each and every night (woo)
The singer requests her future husband to compliment her beauty repeatedly if he wants to receive her special love and attention.

After every fight Just apologize And maybe then I'll let you try and rock my body right Even if I was wrong You know I'm never wrong Why disagree? Why, why disagree?
The singer implores her future husband to apologize after every argument, and only reconciliation will lead to intimacy. She also humorously asserts that she's always right and there is no point in disagreeing with her.

Make time for me Don't leave me lonely And no, we'll never see your family more than mine
The singer asks her future husband to prioritize spending time with her and never leaving her alone. She also jokingly demands that they spend more time with her family than his.

I'll be sleeping on the left side of the bed (hey) Open doors for me and you might get some kisses Don't have a dirty mind Just be a classy guy Buy me a ring Buy-buy me a ring, babe
The singer specifies how she wants to sleep on the bed, that her future husband must be well-mannered, and also buy her a ring. She suggests that kisses will be rewarded for chivalry, but not for any impure thoughts.

Future husband, better love me right
The singer reminds her future husband once again that if he wants to be with her, then he better treat her with love and respect.
