Hurry Up Lyrics by Roger Troutman

Bridging the Gap

1991

[Intro]
Hurry up, hurry up and put your red dress on
Hurry up, hurry up and put your red dress on
Hurry up, hurry up and put your red dress on
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Hurry up, hurry up
Hurry up and put your red dress on
[Verse 1]
It's Friday morning at 5 AM
The clock is ringing as loud as it can
And I've got to go, 'cause I'm a working man
No education, just craft in hands
I've got a mean boss, that I cannot stand
So I need you, woman, just to feel like a man
[Chorus]
Hurry up, hurry up and put your red dress on
Oh baby, put it on
Hurry up and put your red dress on
One that I bought you
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Ooh, hurry up
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Hurry up, hurry up, brush your hair
Hurry up, put it on
Hurry up and put your red dress on
[Verse 2]
It's a long day, but I'll make it through
The boss is yelling "Boo, we need you"
I'm working hard, but I think of you
In that red dress and your high heel shoes
Well, strolling down the avenue
Well, it's 5 o'clock again, I'm coming home to you
[Chorus]
Hurry up, hurry up and put your red dress on
Oh, hurry up, baby
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Off with the wrappers
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Oh, put it on
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Hurry up, comb your hair, hurry up
Oh... hurry up and put your red dress on
Need to play, come on!
[Verse 3]
Bye-bye, boss, I ain't yours no more
Well, give my check, I'm out the door
I'm gonna cash my check at Willy's store
Then I'm gonna stop at the [?]
Oh, which way is home? Where the freeway is quicker
To that red dress, tryin' to pass the brown pecker
[Chorus]
Hurry up, hurry up and put your red dress on
Oh, hurry up, baby
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Off with the wrappers
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Oh, put it on
Hurry up and put your red dress on
Hurry up, comb your hair, hurry up
Oh... hurry up and put your red dress on
Need to play, come on!
