69 Boyz Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
girl we been on this telephone
everynight for a whole month long
you laying on your canopy
and listen to all my fantasy
but now it's time to feel to come true
it's time for me to come through
and pick you up in a 63 SS Drop Top Chevrolet
get in yo crib and you can jump in
with a sound system bumping
bumping some 69
and we's gonna have us a good old time
cruising up and down the street
my brother's driveway in the backseat
(chorus)
backseat seat seat seat
in my older brother 63 3-3-3
and baby since ya so sweet sweet sweet sweet
I promise not to go deep, go deep
(69 Boyz)
shorty yo this for real
a brotha got a fresh lip on Bonneville
12:15 for the funky beat
Gucci tie and a Gucci seat
tell me girl do your thing
if you got butter on my Gucci leg
Polo shirts and a Polo tie
I got scooped by a eighty clown
with a broom, newtangelo
bumping some D' Angelo
what's up what's up what's up with you
girl let me know what you gonna do
'cause if you wit it then it's on
at 8 O' clock be home
I'll pick you up and we gone
in a backseat of a throne
(chorus)
backseat seat seat seat (backseat hey, hey)
in my older brother 63 3-3-3 (in my brother's 63)
and baby since ya so sweet sweet sweet (so sweet to me)
I promise not to go deep, go deep (only if you want me to)
backseat seat seat seat (come on baby lets roll)
in the front and roll (63 3-3-3)

and I'll have ya back by 12 O' clock
they seemed in it believed in me
it's gonna be old
all night long from 8 to 12 in the backseat of a Volv
(69 Boyz)
I'm letting ya know that ya'll cruise the block
'cause I ain't got no cash for the Marriot
all I got is enough cash to fill this Bonneville up with gas
go get a bike eat from B.K. kid to drive here to catch a replay
every same thing we saw last week
me and you up in the backseat
backseat seat (come on baby lets roll)
The song Backseat by 69 Boyz is a song about a man who has been talking to a girl on the phone for a month and decides that it is time to meet in person. He plans to pick her up in a 63 SS Drop Top Chevrolet with a sound system that bumps some 69. They are going to cruise up and down the street and have a good old time. The chorus talks about how they will be in the backseat of the car, but the man promises not to go deep. The second verse talks about the man's Gucci seat and how he got scooped by an eighty clown. He again invites the girl to come for a ride and let him know if she is with it. The third verse talks about how they will cruise the block in a Volv and mentions that they will be in the backseat again.
The song is about the joy of cruising around in a car with someone you like. It also talks about the excitement of meeting someone in person after talking for a long time on the phone. The lyrics are very catchy and have a great beat.
