Wife You Up
Russ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby, you're a one of one to me
I know that I should probably wife you up
And baby, I swear I'm done with these
Other women, they don't mean shit to me

You was tryna know me when they didn't know me
Girl, we fell in love, we both worked at the mall
Way before the Rollie, you was just my homie
You were tryna love way before I had it all
We workin' minimum wage
I need to see you, I switch days
Meaning I switch shifts
Revvin' my engine
Looking back ashamed we were only a phase

Baby, you're a one of one to me
I know that I should probably wife you up
And baby, I swear I'm done with these
Other women, they don't mean shit to me
Yeah

I'm turning down the rest for you
If they call us foul, I'm fighting all the refs for you
You make me a better me, I make you a better you
Riding with the top off looking like the letter "U"
Teaching you the language of the universe, Rosetta who?
Put you on a pedestal
All eyes on me but you loved me when I had seven views
You lookin' like I should go half on a baby with you
And if I'm wrong, I won't debate it with you
I'll own up to it, you voluptuous
They not down for the curves but I'm up to it
Come gimme all that
You the only girl I'll call back
I tell these other women fall back
They be hating on the preview
They think that it's only for the entertainment like E! News
I can see the sequel
Let's do more I do's and less redos

Baby, you're a one of one to me (yeah, yeah)
I know that I should probably wife you up (I should probably wife)




And baby, I swear I'm done with these (with these)
Other women, they don't mean shit to me (I swear they don't mean shit)

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its a TRAP Russ!!!
Dont do it bro...
68% of divorces are implemented by bitches....
70% of all marriages end in divorce and being rich puts u at higher risks to pay alimony and child support...
How many times you been burned by women?
Think about b4 you were rich...that is the inner truth..
U know it and I know it brother...
Nvr sign a marriage contract... its like handing her all of your success for her to vacuum when shes bored..
