[Verse 1:]

I could've bought me a G4 by now
So I would never have to wait at the gate
I could've checked in a 5-star palace
And would've got the whole floor for my stay
And if I really really really wanted to
Print my own money with my own face in my own state like Prince Akeem
Living like a king but my heart said

[Pre-Chorus:]
(wait) for something just a little better
(wait) don't settle for whatever just
(wait) for somoene that can bring me everything I want and need

[Chorus:]
(if I had) a dollar every time I heard a yes I would be
(a millionaire) but I'd settle for whatever, as long as I could get with (you)
I'll settle for a maybe (from you)
Even an I'll think about it baby (cause you)
Looking at chu, got me acting all crazy
But I'd settle for whatever as long as I could get with (you)

[Verse 2:]
I could have had some drawls on call y'all
I'm talking one for every day of the week
Even on Mondays would have been crazy and stayed the same up till Friday (don't forget the weekends)
I mean really really honestly and true could have been someone you'd love to hate but it's OK
(girl I'm not that way)
Cause every time I'd try to be something just kept telling me

[Pre-Chorus:]
(wait) for something just a little better
(wait) don't settle for whatever just
(wait) for somoene that can bring me everything I want and need

[Chorus:]
(if I had) a dollar every time I heard a yes I would be
(a millionaire) but I'd settle for whatever, as long as I could get with (you)
I'll settle for a maybe (from you)
Even an I'll think about it baby (cause you)
Looking at chu, got me acting all crazy
But I'd settle for whatever as long as I could get with (you)

[Bridge:]
(I mean) I mean it baby
(for less) I'd settle for less
(don't need) I'm so serious lady
(a yes) said I don't need a yes
(maybe) maybe you should give this
(a try) a try
(you never know) cause you never know and I'm try'na to find out with you cause

[CHORUS]
