Tell Somebody Lyrics

[Intro]
Yeah, wassup, baby? (Yeah)
Let me ask you a question, don't tell nobody
Think you got no love? (Huh) Makin' love
Watchin' the sunrise (Haha), while Chris sings us a verse


[Verse 1]
Hey there, pretty lady, saw you at the bar and I was mesmerized
You might think it sounds crazy, but I ain't never been a man to lie
Girl, I don't think you're ready 'cause you can't keep a secret very well
And ayy, girl, if you let me, I might give you somethin' to go and tell

[Pre-Chorus]
Ayy
Yeah, I can just see it now
Tryna hold it in, tryna keep it down
But you keep screamin' out, "Ooh"

[Chorus]
You're gonna wanna tell somebody
You're gonna wanna tell everybody
You're gonna wanna tell somebody
You're gonna wanna tell everybody

[Verse 2]
And turn the lights down low, girl
'Cause you know that I be waitin' on you
Won't you hold me close, girl?
I'ma show you I got somethin' to prove
So go ahead, tell all your girls, yeah, you tell 'em that I put it down
They all gon' want a piece of this, so you better keep it to yourself, oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, I can just see it now
Tryna hold it in, tryna keep it down
But you keep screamin' out, "Ooh"

[Chorus]
You're gonna wanna tell somebody
You're gonna wanna tell everybody (Tell, tell)
You're gonna wanna tell somebody (Oh-oh)
You're gonna wanna tell everybody (Oh-oh)
You're gonna wanna tell somebody (Tell somebody)
You're gonna wanna tell everybody
You're gonna wanna tell somebody (So go and tell it, girl, go and tell it, girl)
You're gonna wanna tell everybody (Yeah, oh-oh)

[Bridge]
Just tell them how good it is (Oh-oh-woah-woah-oh)
Oh yeah, oh (Ayy-ayy-ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy)
And how it makes you feel, oh (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
And just tell 'em all (Gon' girl, tell it all)
How I'm just pullin' your hair from the back and I got you shakin' (Gone, gone, gone)
Girl, you better tell 'em all (You get gone, gone, gone)
That I'm just a sexy, sexy, freaky freak (Go, go, go, go, gone, gone, gone)
Just go and tell 'em that I put it down, oh

[Chorus]
You're gonna wanna tell somebody
You're gonna wanna tell everybody
You're gonna wanna tell somebody
You're gonna wanna tell everybody
You're gonna wanna tell somebody
You're gonna wanna tell everybody
You're gonna wanna tell somebody
You're gonna wanna tell everybody
[Outro]
And turn the lights down low, girl
'Cause you know that I be waitin' on you (Tell everybody)
Won't you hold me close, girl?
I'ma show you I got somethin' to prove
Down, down

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 [?]
