Gramática:

  • You swear that you're stayin' single

    ➔ Presente continuo para expresar un plan futuro con "staying"

    ➔ El uso de "staying" en el presente continuo implica una intención o un plan firme de permanecer soltero. A menudo se usa sarcásticamente aquí, insinuando que esta intención no durará.

  • You get her laughin' it's 2 AM

    ➔ Causativa "get" + objeto + infinitivo sin "to"

    "Get her laughin'" significa que la haces reír. Esto usa "get" de forma causativa, significando hacer que alguien haga algo. El infinitivo sin "to" (laughin') se usa en inglés americano cuando sigue a "get" en esta forma.

  • Your old apartment is y'all's new place

    ➔ Pronombre posesivo "y'all's"

    "Y'all's" es una contracción de "you all's", usado en el inglés sureño americano como un pronombre posesivo equivalente a "your" pero refiriéndose a un grupo de personas.

  • You're savin' money like never before, just to

    ➔ Frase adverbial comparativa "like never before"

    "Like never before" es una frase idiomática que significa que algo está sucediendo en un grado o intensidad mayor de lo que nunca ha sucedido en el pasado.

  • Just prayin' she don't say no

    ➔ Modo subjuntivo (omisión informal de "that" y "should")

    ➔ La línea implica "just praying that she doesn't say no" o "just praying she should not say no". En el habla informal, "that" y "should" a menudo se omiten después de verbos que expresan un deseo o anhelo, como "pray".

  • Y'all weren't really tryin'

    ➔ Pasado continuo negativo con "y'all"

    ➔ Esto usa la forma negativa del pasado continuo ("weren't trying") para describir una acción en curso en el pasado que no estaba sucediendo. "Y'all" es un pronombre de segunda persona plural usado en el inglés sureño americano.

  • Nobody's ever called you that

    ➔ Presente perfecto con "ever" y pronombre posesivo

    ➔ El tiempo presente perfecto ("Nobody's ever called") se usa para describir un evento que sucedió en un momento no especificado en el pasado y que es relevante para el presente. "Ever" enfatiza que esto no ha sucedido en ningún momento de la vida del hablante hasta ahora.
