Stephanie Sammons - Grow Up (Feat. Verlon Thompson)

“Grow Up”
© 2023 Stephanie Sammons / Publishing PRO (BMI)
You smoke your morning cigarette
You can’t remember what you did last night
Late for work again I don’t know how you keep the job
You say it’s a blessing in disguise

You tell me I’m the reason for your anger
You’re like a mean old dog tied up to a chain
I’m seeing signs warning of the danger
When you claim this time, you’ve changed

When you gonna grow up grow up
When you gonna grow up grow up
When you gonna grow up grow up

Get home and pour the whiskey down
The gasoline for your midnight fire
Wear your favorite dress and cheap perfume
Another nameless man is gonna take you higher

You tell me I’m the reason for your sorrow
As I stand in your firing line
You don’t know the worry that I borrow
When you vanish for weeks at a time

When you gonna grow up grow up
When you gonna grow up grow up
When you gonna grow up grow up
When you gonna grow up grow up

I am on your side
I hope you find your peace in time

Chorus (Repeat)
