One More
Ne-Yo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You look like you just got off of work
And if I may assume, babe
You work hard but you don't get what you're worth
Am I right?
Let me take another guess
You're a little stressed and I bet your feet hurt
No I don't read minds, babe
I just know what it looks like
When a woman works all night tryna get her thing right

Don't know where you've been
And I don't know what you've been through
But something's tellin' me you
You deserve a drink or two

Bartender, let me get one more for the lady
(Whatever she wants)
Let me get one more for the lady
Let me get one more for the lady
(Whatever she wants)

Don't know where you've been
And I don't know what you've been through
But something's tellin' me you
You deserve a drink or two

See I was thinkin', over in the corner while I was drinkin'
See you've probably been lookin' for way more out a weekend
Than freakin' and watchin' the Sun fly so high
But you feel so nasty and don't know why
You tried all the things that you weren't gon' try
Like kiss body parts if it wasn't on a guy
But your girl's in the bed and it wasn't undivided
And wasn't no ambition, and everybody wishin'
We'd have did this shit way back then, why we didn't?
Even if you went too far, it's forgiven
You were high when you did it, everybody was trippin'
Promised you'd forget it, but everybody didn't
You're like, this ass doesn't land in the air, body mitten
And I don't just be lookin' on everybody's kitten
But you get in the room and my dick in the room
Make your forget about all the chicks in the room, like that

Let me get one more for the lady
(Whatever she wants)
Let me get one more for the lady
Let me get one more for the lady
(Whatever she wants)

I don't know where you've been
And I don't know what you've been through
But something's tellin' me you
You deserve a drink or two

Ain't gon' lie to you, baby
Wish I could take you somewhere, my bride
Ain't gon' lie to you, baby
Get all in your mind and see what's inside it
Ain't gon' lie to you
I want you, how could I not with a booty so fat?
I don't wanna get on your nerves and test your patience
I ain't tryna do that, no
Ain't gon' lie to you, baby
I would love the opportunity to rub your feet
Ain't gon' lie to you, baby
If you with it, I got somebody sexy you should meet
Ain't gon' lie to you
You had a long night, I'm just tryna help you end it right
So if I may be so bold, can I get you one more to go?

Let me get one more for the lady
(Whatever she wants)
Let me get one more for the lady
Let me get one more for the lady
(Whatever she wants)

Don't know where you've been
And I don't know what you've been through




But something's tellin' me you
You deserve a drink or two

Overall Meaning

Ne-Yo's song One More is a tribute to hardworking women who don't always receive the recognition they deserve. The song opens with Ne-Yo observing a woman who looks like she's just got off a long day at work. He assumes she's underappreciated and stressed out, which is why he offers to buy her a drink. Ne-Yo sings about his desire to make the woman's weekend more interesting and fulfilling than just watching the sun rise. He wants her to forget about her problems and enjoy her night.


The song is well-written and catchy, with a deceptively simple melody that effectively captures Ne-Yo's sincerity and empathy. The melody is soft and slow, creating a calm ambience that makes the listener feel at ease. The lyrics are emotional but uplifting, conveying a nostalgic and bittersweet feeling.


One More is more than just a catchy tune, it's also a direct appeal to the value of women's work and the struggles they endure. The reference to the woman's feet hurting is a subtle nod to the physical toll of hard work, as well as the emotional exhaustion that comes with it. Ne-Yo's lyrics serve as a reminder that every woman deserves to be appreciated and cared for, no matter what challenges she faces.

Than freakin' and watchin' the Sun fly so high

But you feel so nasty and don't know why
You feel dirty but can't grasp why


You tried all the things that you weren't gon' try
You attempted activities that you initially weren't going to do


Like kiss body parts if it wasn't on a guy
Like kissing body parts other than a man


But your girl's in the bed and it wasn't undivided
But your friend was also present and it wasn't a private encounter


And wasn't no ambition, and everybody wishin'
There was a lack of motivation, and everyone wanted more


We'd have did this shit way back then, why we didn't?
We should have done this a long time ago, why didn't we?


Even if you went too far, it's forgiven
Even if you went too far, it's alright


You were high when you did it, everybody was trippin'
You were under the influence when you acted that way, everyone was also out of it


Promised you'd forget it, but everybody didn't
You made a promise to forget it, but everyone else didn't


You're like, this ass doesn't land in the air, body mitten
You're thinking that your bottom isn't floating in the air- body mittens


And I don't just be lookin' on everybody's kitten
I don't glance at everyone's intimate area


But you get in the room and my dick in the room
But when you walk in the room, my penis (figuratively) is also present


Make your forget about all the chicks in the room, like that
It makes you forget about all the other women present in the room


Ain't gon' lie to you, baby
I won't deceive you, darling


Wish I could take you somewhere, my bride
I desire to bring you somewhere, my partner


Get all in your mind and see what's inside it
To examine what's concealed within your thoughts


I want you, how could I not with a booty so fat?
I want you, it's only natural with such a large backside


I don't wanna get on your nerves and test your patience
I don't want to irritate you or try your patience


I ain't tryna do that, no
I'm not attempting to do that


I would love the opportunity to rub your feet
I would enjoy the chance to massage your feet


If you with it, I got somebody sexy you should meet
If you're interested, I know someone attractive that you should meet


You had a long night, I'm just tryna help you end it right
You had a challenging night, and I'm trying to assist you in finishing it correctly


So if I may be so bold, can I get you one more to go?
So if I may be so forward, can I get you one more drink to take with you?
