Wait a Minute Lyrics

[Chorus:]
Baby when we vibin'
I get so excited
Ooh you know I like ya
I tried but I can't fight it
Is it that I'm trippin'?
Kinda crazy how you got me in my feelings
I just wanna take my time with my decisions
Got my attention, you're what I'm missing
Wait a minute

[Verse 1:]
Teach me 'bout some things
What you do, I like your chains
Usually, I stay in my lane
And I know you do the same
And not to mention I ain't quick to love
Or let you kiss it
You the type to make a good girl start to sinnin'
I don't really know a lot about ya'
But I got many things I like about ya'

[Pre-Chorus:]
I can see me on the ground I'm fallin'
I can see you on my mind in the mornin'
Love's a song I'll be the verses, you're the chorus
Smooth sailin' but the winds they got me nervous
[Chorus:]
Baby when we vibin'
I get so excited
Ooh you know I like ya
I tried but I can't fight it
Is it that I'm trippin'?
Kinda crazy how you got me in my feelings
I just wanna take my time with my decisions
Got my attention, you're what I'm missing
Wait a minute

[Verse 2:]
Let me get this right
Let me get this right
Say you ain't the jealous type
You gon' do me right
If you got a plan
I may be down to ride
I can see the way you move
You got a future bride
But understand, baby
Don't need a boy I need a man, baby
You gotta show me where you stand, baby
Cause I ain't had no one love me lately

[Pre-Chorus:]
I can see me on the ground I'm fallin'
I can see you on my mind in the mornin'
Love's a song I'll be the verses, you're the chorus
Smooth sailin' but the winds they got me nervous
[Chorus:]
Baby when we vibin'
I get so excited
Ooh you know I like ya
I tried but I can't fight it
Is it that I'm trippin'?
Kinda crazy how you got me in my feelings
I just wanna take my time with my decisions
Got my attention, you're what I'm missing
Wait a minute

[Verse 3:]
It takes a lot to get you off my mind
You kinda' popped up at the perfect time
Cause I done given love too many tries
I'm scared to jump
But damn, you're so damn fine
You're like the sun
And when it rains, you shine
And I been waitin' on this all my life
Feels like I'm rollin' dice
Too good this can't be right

[Chorus:]
Baby when we vibin'
I get so excited
Ooh you know I like ya
I tried but I can't fight it
Is it that I'm trippin'?
Kinda crazy how you got me in my feelings
I just wanna take my time with my decisions
Got my attention, you're what I'm missing
Wait a minute

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
