Lyrics
She said, "You don't want this heart, boy, it's already broke"
Told me everything she touch just goes up in smoke
Only stay a couple nights, then she gon' be gone
I said, "Baby, you should know that's what I want"
That's what I want, that's what I want
That's what I want, that's what I want, that's what I want
What I want
And you ain't gotta worry 'bout no trust issues with me
I got 'em too, I got 'em too
You ain't gotta worry 'bout no exes that's crazy
I got 'em too, you know I do
If you're in a hurry
Nah, you ain't gonna hurt me tonight
And it won't be the worst thing
If this is all it is
And in the middle of a kiss
She said, "You don't want this heart, boy, it's already broke"
Told me everything she touch just goes up in smoke
Only stay a couple nights, then she gon' be gone
I said, "Baby, you should know that's what I want"
That's what I want, that's what I want
That's what I want, that's what I want, that's what I want
That's what I want
That's what I want
What I want
There are no hard feelings if you only wanna act like lovers do
For a night or two
Ooh, oh yeah
And sometimes in the mornin' go back to bein' someone you never knew
You never knew
Baby, don't you worry, you ain't gonna hurt me tonight
It won't be the worst thing
If this is all it is
Then she kissed me again
And said, "You don't want this heart, boy, it's already broke"
Told me everything she touch just goes up in smoke
Only stay a couple nights, then she gon' be gone
I said, "Baby, you should know that's what I want"
She said, "You don't want this heart, nah, it can't be fixed
And I ain't ready to try on a night like this
But if you still wanna stay, there ain't nothin' wrong"
There's nothin' wrong
I said, "Baby, you should know that's what I want"
That's what I want, that's what I want
That's what I want, that's what I want, that's what I want
That's what I want
Yeah
That's what I want, that's what I want, that's what I want
Yeah
That's what I want
Oh yeah, oh
That's what I want, that's what I want

What is the meaning of "What I Want (feat. Tate McRae)"?
Morgan Wallen’s “What I Want” explores the internal conflict between desire and self-awareness. In the song, Wallen reflects on chasing short-term pleasures—like late nights, casual flings, or distractions—that momentarily feel like what he wants. But deep down, he admits they don’t satisfy the emptiness he’s carrying. The lyrics paint a picture of someone who’s trying to outrun pain or regret, perhaps from a lost love or a past mistake. Even as he indulges in vices or distractions, he knows that they’re not really what he needs. The line between want and need becomes blurred. Overall, the song is about the struggle to be honest with yourself—realizing that what you’re chasing isn’t fulfilling, even though it’s tempting in the moment. It’s a vulnerable, relatable message wrapped in a smooth country melody: you can have everything that looks good on the outside, and still not feel whole inside.
