Composition and lyrics
[edit]Over a bossa nova-inspired instrumental with minimal percussion composed of snaps and muffled kick drums,[1][2] Jack Harlow addresses his lover and her mother,[2][3][4] delivering a message to the latter in the chorus: "Hello, Miss Johnson, you know why I'm callin' / You know I've been fallin', fallin' for your daughter / I think about her often, correct mе if I'm wrong, but / Was it you that gave the eyеs to her I be lost in? Thought so / Tell her I said hello if you can, and also / That I can't wait to see her again, and also / Tell her call me when she get a chance / 'Cause I got so much to say, and I appreciate you, ma'am".[2][3][5][6]
