Step On Up Lyrics

Step on up here baby
I'll show you what's it's all about
You know I'm packin' something
Something you can't live without
Get on down here with me
Get your head out of the clouds

That's how the cow ate the cabbage
Girl you know I'm shootin' straight
That's how us farm boys do it
We don't swing on no one's gate
Step on up here baby
Or you can hurry up and wait

I saw you lookin' at me
When you saw me seein' you
You know my reputation
I am everything I do
I'll leave all of that stuff behind me
If I can step on up with you

Step on up here baby
I'll show you what's it all about
You know I'm packin' something
Something you can't live without
Get on down here with me
Get your head out of the clouds

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
