“Leavin'” is a song by American singer and songwriter Jesse McCartney, released as the lead single from McCartney’s third studio album, Departure.
The song and its lyrical content was considered to some as a departure from McCartney’s younger image, having a more mature sound to it than McCartney’s...
[Intro]
Hmm
[Verse 1]
Hey, baby girl, I've been watching you all day
(All day, all day, all day)
Man, that thing you got behind you is amazing
(Amazing, amazing, amazing)
You make me wanna take you out and let it rain
(Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain)
I know you got a man, but this is what you should say
[Chorus]
Why don't you tell him that I'm leavin', never lookin' back again
You found somebody who does it better than he can
No more making you cry
No more o' them gray skies
Girl, we flyin' on a G5, G5
And we're leavin', never lookin' back again
So call your shawty and tell him you found a new man
The one who's so, so fly
The one to keep you high
Have you singing all night, like that
[Post-Chorus]
Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh (Yeah)
Uh-oh, oh, man, she gon' be singin' (She gon' be singin' like)
Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh (Oh-oh-oh)
Uh-oh, oh, uh-oh, oh
[Verse 2]
Now if I talk it, girl, you know that I will walk it out
(Walk it out, walk it out, walk it out)
Man, I'll put my money, money where my mouth is
(Mouth is, mouth is, mouth is)
'Cause you the baddest little thing that I've ever seen
(Ever seen, ever seen, ever seen)
So I'ma ask you one time, if you got a man
[Chorus]
Why don't you tell him that I'm leavin', never lookin' back again (Ooh)
You found somebody who does it better than he can
No more making you cry
No more o' them gray skies
Girl, we flyin' on a G5, G5 (Oh)
And we're leavin', never lookin' back again
So call your shawty and tell him you found a new man
The one who's so, so fly
The one to keep you high
Have you singing all night, like that
[Post-Chorus]
Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh
Uh-oh, oh, man, she gon' be singin'
Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh (She gon' be singin', uh, she gon' be singin')
Uh-oh, oh, uh-oh, oh (She gon' be singin', girl, you gon' be singin')
[Bridge]
Don't stress, don't stress, don't stress
Just tell him to the left, left, left
Don't stress, don't stress, don't stress
'Cause we gone and we gone and we gone
No stress, no stress, no stress
Girl, you deserve nothing but the best
No stress, no stress, no stress
Girl, you need to tell him
[Chorus]
That I'm leavin', never lookin' back again
You found somebody who does it better than he can
No more making you cry (Making you cry)
No more o' them gray skies
Girl, we flyin' on a G5, G5
And we're leavin', never lookin' back again
So call your shawty and tell him you found a new man
The one who's so, so fly
The one to keep you high
Have you singin' all night, like that, like that
[Post-Chorus]
Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh
Uh-oh, oh, man, she gon' be singin'
Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh (Oh, oh)
Uh-oh, oh, uh-oh, oh (Have you singin' all night like that, like that)
Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh
Uh-oh, oh, man, she gon' be singin'
Uh-oh, oh, oh, oh (She gon' be singin', uh, she gon' be singin')
Uh-oh, oh, uh-oh, oh (She gon' be singin', girl, you gon' be singin')
