Take Ya Home
Bow Wow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

From the C-O to across the seas
I'm guaranteed to everybody bounce with me
Been known to put it down anyplace I be
You can copy but it's only goin' be one me
I don't ride in no cars till a man come wit me
14 and i started up a whole epidemic
Look, y'all know what I'm talking about
Ever since I hooked up with the homie down south
TV shows, magazine covers
Girls in groups saying, "We go with each other."
Sold out shows, pocket full of cake
What you know about selling tres mil out the gate?
I'm the hottest thing around
Neck full of bling, bling like the Neptune sound
I got it locked on the left, right, front and rear
When I step up in the spot this is all I hear

I said Lil' Bow Wow you just don't know
The way you move so fast across the floor
I mean you run through my mind like all the time
To the point that I just wanna take ya home
I said Lil' Bow Wow you just don't know
The way you move so fast across the floor
I mean you run through my mind like all the time
To the point that I just wanna take ya home

Right now, when I'm old, where I'm gonna be
How I flow, homie you can bet the house on me
I'ma forever be up under the scope
I ain't tryin' to go out like Todd Bridges off Different Strokes
I was born to rock, born to rhyme
What you lookin' at is somethin' that's before their time
Like the number 2-3 in the red and black
Mr. 106 & Park is back, holla!
I do it like no other
And attract mo' family than Ringling Brothers
I got 'em scattered, covered, smothered like hash browns
See I'm the best just ask around
I'm here now, and ain't nobody takin' mine
It's a waste of time if you thinkin' you can
You better off gettin' a shirt, makin' a sign that reads
"Shad Moss, I'm yo number 1 fan!"

I said Lil' Bow Wow you just don't know
The way you move so fast across the floor
I mean you run through my mind like all the time
To the point that I just wanna take ya home
I said Lil' Bow Wow you just don't know
The way you move so fast across the floor




I mean you run through my mind like all the time
To the point that I just wanna take ya home

You can count me, but it's only gon' be one me
I don't ride on cars, if the man can't rim it

Look, y'all know what I'm talkin' about
Ever since I hooked up with the homey down south

Sayin' we goin' with each other
Sold out shows, pocket full of cake,
What you know about sellin' tres mil out the gate
See, I'm the hottest (hottest) thing around
Neck full of bling bling like the Neptunes' sound
I got it locked from the left, right, front, and rear
When I step up in the spot this is all y'all hear
