Music video
The music video was directed by Jon Small and premiered on CMT on March 23, 1994, as their "Hot Shot Video of the Week". It starts with Reba and her co-star boyfriend in a restaurant with a mariachi band playing in the background. The boyfriend asks her to go away together, and, after a ponderous think about it, she says YES!!! The boyfriend then says Ill call you at the Hollywood Parlor, at 7. The word 7 echos as the main set is revealed (a beauty parlor) and the song begins. Reba is then shown with 4 other women trying on various disguises, getting her nails and face done, and performing. Reba waits impatiently by the parlors phone for her boyfriends call. During the final chorus, Reba and 4 women are seen in black and white outfits and top hats as they sing on a grand stage. It then goes back to the restaurant, where Reba is seen initially dozing, but after her boyfriend says her characters name, she confronts him, saying You didnt even call! How dare you leave me in that beauty shop all day! The video ends as the mariachi band finishes their performance. The video set was built in such a way that the restaurant set was actually built directly in front of the main salon set. It took 2 days to film.
