[Verse 1]
Met you at the party, you seemed like a sweet guy
(Oh baby, are you gonna play it cool?)
Asked me out to dinner, I thought you'd be my type
(Oh honey, will you follow the rules?)
But when the check came, you started to hesitate
Wondering if payin' is something you'd debate
Oh darling, I ain't that easy, let me set you straight
[Chorus]
You wanna hold my hand now?
Oh baby, can you cover the tab?
If you want my heart, boy, don't be so drab
[Verse 2]
Seeing you squirming, don't make a good sight
(Oh sugar, need some coins from me?)
Hoping you’d be charming, you just hit a red light
(Oh boy, will you ever see?)
A date ain't worth it if you can't spend a dime
Left me wondering if you're worth my time
So honey, let me tell you just one last line
[Chorus]
You wanna hold my hand now?
Oh baby, can you cover the tab?
If you want my heart, boy, don't be so drab
[Bridge]
Money ain't a measure of love,
But your intentions show from above.
Take this lesson, don't be cheap,
If you want my love, dig deep.
[Chorus]
You wanna hold my hand now?
Oh baby, can you cover the tab?
If you want my heart, boy, don't be so drab
