Waldo's People Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You've been kind of bad, you think that
I don't know what's going on, behind my back
Cause I can read your tell, there's no way
You can pull a lie, Boy you are out of line
I ain't blind, it's over tonight
But you cant let me go
You still gon' end up in my bed
I'm a rockstar, I'm allowed to get out of line
Ain't no replica guaranteed to blow your mind
If you're bluffin I will call, baby boy you out the door
If you wanna win me, give me your best shot
3 strikes and your out and you won't hit the jackpott
You got to fold, fold, so are you on a roll, roll
Tonight I'm feelin' lucky, I'm a hit the jackpott
Just watch me here I go, I'm on my way to the top
I never fold, fold, tell me when you wan't to roll, roll
When I step up in the house I make the stacks start to rise
And despite the lows and high's, I'm here, I never lose girl
You don't see that, you're about to lose me boy
You can keep on, play your play, I'm not your toy
If you're bluffin I will call, baby boy you out the door
If you wanna win me, give me your best shot
3 strikes and your out and you won't hit the jackpott
You got to fold, fold, so are you on a roll, roll
Tonight I'm feelin' lucky, I'm a hit the jackpott
Just watch me here I go, I'm on my way to the top
I never fold, fold, tell me when you wan't to roll, roll
Stacks high, in a flow, I'm about to blow
I'm a run this show, I'm on a high roll
Stacks high, in a flow, I'm about to blow
I'm a run the show, I'm a run, run, run, run
If you wanna win me, give me your best shot
3 strikes and your out and you won't hit the jackpott
You got to fold, fold, so are you on a roll, roll
Tonight I'm feelin' lucky, I'm a hit the jackpott
Just watch me here I go, I'm on my way to the top
I never fold, fold, tell me when you wan't to roll, roll
When I step up in the house
Wha, wha, what you gonna do
I make the stacks dollar rise
Gam, gam, game between us two
And despite the lows and high's
Ca, can I, can I trust you boy
I never lose girl

She confronts him about his strange behavior and tells him that she knows he's lying. Despite him being a successful rockstar, he can't keep her because he doesn't treat her well. She tells him that he has to give his best shot to win her over and if he fails, he won't hit the jackpot. The woman is determined to take control of her life and make it to the top, without the man who can't appreciate her.

I got to let you know that you've been weird
I need to tell you that your behavior has been strange
You've been kind of bad, you think that
Your actions have been questionable, and you seem to believe you can hide them
I don't know what's going on, behind my back
I am not aware of the secrets you are keeping from me
Cause I can read your tell, there's no way
I can detect when you are lying and there's no way you can fool me
You can pull a lie, Boy you are out of line
You cannot deceive me any longer, your actions are unacceptable
I ain't blind, it's over tonight
I am not ignorant of your actions, and this is the end of the line for us
But you cant let me go
You are reluctant to let me leave
Girl you know I'm one of the best, for the record though
However, you acknowledge that I am one of the best partners you have ever had
You still gon' end up in my bed
You still believe we are meant to be together and will end up being intimate
I'm a rockstar, I'm allowed to get out of line
As a famous person, I have the freedom to behave unconventionally at times
Ain't no replica guaranteed to blow your mind
There are no duplicates of my qualities that can guarantee that I will be the best partner you ever had
If you're bluffin I will call, baby boy you out the door
If you're lying to me, I will call you out on it and you will be out of my life
If you wanna win me, give me your best shot
If you want to earn my love and trust, do whatever it takes to impress me
3 strikes and your out and you won't hit the jackpott
However, you only have three attempts to impress me and win me over, otherwise you will fail
You got to fold, fold, so are you on a roll, roll
You need to give up and accept that you are not going to win me over, are you going to keep trying?
Tonight I'm feelin' lucky, I'm a hit the jackpott
I am feeling confident tonight, and I believe that I am going to meet someone amazing
Just watch me here I go, I'm on my way to the top
I am sure that I will succeed no matter what obstacles come my way, and I am determined to reach the top
I never fold, fold, tell me when you wan't to roll, roll
I never back down from a challenge, so if you think you can impress me, give it your best try
When I step up in the house I make the stacks start to rise
Whenever I enter a room, the level of excitement and energy increases
And despite the lows and high's, I'm here, I never lose girl
Although there are ups and downs in life, I remain strong and never give up
You don't see that, you're about to lose me boy
You do not seem to understand that if you continue down this path, I will leave you permanently
You can keep on, play your play, I'm not your toy
You can continue to play games, but I am not a toy that you can manipulate at your whim
Stacks high, in a flow, I'm about to blow
I am on a roll and my success is sure to increase significantly
I'm a run this show, I'm on a high roll
I am in charge of my own life, and I am riding a wave of success
If you wanna win me, give me your best shot
If you want to impress me and win my affection, you need to give it your best effort
3 strikes and your out and you won't hit the jackpott
However, you only have three attempts to impress me and win me over, otherwise you will fail
You got to fold, fold, so are you on a roll, roll
You need to give up and accept that you are not going to win me over, are you going to keep trying?
Tonight I'm feelin' lucky, I'm a hit the jackpott
I am feeling confident tonight, and I believe that I am going to meet someone amazing
Just watch me here I go, I'm on my way to the top
I am sure that I will succeed no matter what obstacles come my way, and I am determined to reach the top
I never fold, fold, tell me when you wan't to roll, roll
I never back down from a challenge, so if you think you can impress me, give it your best try
When I step up in the house
Whenever I enter a room
Wha, wha, what you gonna do
What are you planning to do?
I make the stacks dollar rise
I bring energy and excitement to the room
Gam, gam, game between us two
There is a game being played between the two of us
And despite the lows and high's
Despite the difficult times and the good times
Ca, can I, can I trust you boy
Can I rely on you and trust you, boy?
I never lose girl
I always come out on top, girl
