Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I can make you put your phone down

I can make you, I can make you

I can make you put your phone down

I can make you put your phone down

[Verse 2]

I can make you, I can make you

I can make you put your phone down

I can make you put your phone down

I can make you, I can make you

I can make you put your phone down

I can make you put your phone down

[Verse 3]

And we cruise through the city

I can make you put your phone down

You ain't gon' text no one when you're with me

I can make you put your phone down

So you can show me attention

And I'll cut mine off too

[Verse 4]

Boy, it'll help when I listen

I can make you put your phone down

Baby, we don't need it

Every time you get a message, act like you don't see it

I can make you put your phone down

Tell me, do you copy?

[Verse 5]

I can make you put your phone down

Boy, that ain't gonna stop me

I can make you put your phone down

I can make you, I can make you

I can make you put your phone down

I can make you put your phone down

I can make you, I can make you

I can make you put your phone down

[Verse 6]

Ah

I can make you put your phone down

Make you not wanna check that again

I can make you put your phone down

Ridin' in a drop, hair blowin' in the wind

Baby, I will put my phone down

[Verse 7]

'Cause when you talk, I'ma listen

I can make you put your phone down

Leave at the crib, guarantee you wouldn't miss it

I could make you put your phone down

And it wouldn't leave your pocket

I could make you put your phone down

Probably wouldn't even know how to unlock it

I could make you put your phone down

I see your friend callin' but forget him

[Verse 8]

I could make you put your phone down

Your mama prob'ly think you're out here missin'

I can make you put your phone down

I could make you, I could make you

I could make you put your phone down

[Verse 9]

I could make you put your phone down

I could make you, I could make you

I could make you put your phone down

[Verse 10]

Ah

I could make you put your phone down

I could make you, I could make you

I could make you put your phone
