No Diggity
2forSOul Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shorty get down, good Lord
Baby got 'em open all over town
Strictly biz she don't play around
Cover much ground, got game by the pound

Gettin' paid is her forte
Each and every day, true player way
I can't get her outta my mind (say what?!)
I think about the girl all the time (well, well)

East side to the west side
Push your phat rides ain't no surprise
She got tricks in the stash
Stacking up the cash quick when it comes to the gas

By no means average
It's always she's got to have it
Baby you're a perfect ten, I wanna get in
Let me come in so I can win

I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it, bag it up now
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it, bag it up now
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up

She's got class and style
And balance by the pound
Shorty never act wild
Very low key on the profile

Catching feelings is a no
Let me tell you how it goes
Curve's the word, spin's the verb
Lovin' it curves so freak what you heard

Rollin' with the phatness
You never quiet know what the half is
You gotta pay to play
Just for shorty bang-bang to look your way

I like the way you work it
Top notch, trump tight, everyday
You're blowing my mind, baby in time
Maybe I can get you in my ride

I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it, bag it up now
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up, bag it up now
I like the way you work it
No diggity, I got to bag it up

Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo
Damn that girl looks good
Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo
Play on, play on, play on
Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo
Damn that girl looks good
Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo
No, no

'Cause I'm gonna pop some tags
Only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I- I- I'm hunting looking for a come-up
This is freaking awesome

Now, now I'm gonna pop some tags
Only got twenty dollars in my pocket
I- I- I'm hunting looking for a come-up
This is freaking awesome

Now, now I'm gonna pop some tags (I like the way you work it)
No diggity, I got to bag it up (bag it up now)
I'm gonna pop some tags (I like the way you work it)
No diggity, I got to bag it up
Now I'm gonna pop some tags (I like the way you work it)
No diggity, I got to bag it up (bag it up now)




I'm gonna pop some tags (I like the way you work it)
No diggity, I got to bag it up

Overall Meaning

In "No Diggity," 2forSOul describes a woman who is confident and successful. She knows what she wants and she goes after it, but at the same time she is discreet and doesn't attract too much attention to herself. The singer is clearly enamored with her and can't stop thinking about her. He notes that she has a lot of skills, both in terms of her work (getting paid) and her ability to attract men (game by the pound). He also notes that she keeps a low profile and doesn't get too emotional or attached to anyone. He's not sure if he will ever be able to win her over, but he's captivated nonetheless.


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I like the way you work it, no diggity, I got to bag it up." "No diggity" is a slang expression that means "no doubt" or "for sure." In this context, it seems to suggest that the singer has complete confidence in the woman and believes that he needs to pursue her, regardless of the obstacles in his way. "Bag it up" is also slang that means "to seal the deal" or "to get what you want." It's clear that the singer wants to be with this woman, but it's unclear whether she feels the same way.


The song ends with a reference to the popular 2012 song "Thrift Shop" by Macklemore and Ryan Lewis. The singer sings, "Hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, hey yo, / 'Cause I'm gonna pop some tags / Only got twenty dollars in my pocket / I-I-I'm hunting, looking for a come-up / This is freaking awesome." "Pop some tags" is a reference to the act of buying secondhand clothing, which is a key theme in "Thrift Shop." The singer seems to be suggesting that he's willing to do whatever it takes to win the woman over, even if it means being resourceful and thrifty.
