Doin' It
Children of the Corn Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

[Cam'Ron]
Aiiyo what good is all the guns and techs
And dumbs respect to keep your sons in check
If your cash don't come correct?

[Bloodshed]
Yeah I agree G
Cause most niggaz got ghost figures
In 3-D and still can't see me

[Cam'Ron]
True, but people tend to get very jealous
When I got the Perry Ellis, but get the skelly when I'm buried fellas
And kids look at me, they crew be stressed
They thinking yo "He do be fresh"
Making more deliveries then UPS
But those that schemers used to diss me when I was a dreamer
But now I pack the nina when my crew is in the beamer

[Bloodshed]
Yo they used to think I was psycho
Cause I put the juice container in my bike to make it sound like a motorcyle
But now, I could afford a Ninja
I could even afford a Lex with all the trips to and from Virgina
See I'm all about cash profits
Expensive objects like tag watches
And bagging chickenheads in "Snack Boxes"

[Cam'Ron]
Cause I'm a plagarist that always pulls his razor quick
And keeps the flavor chicks that got North Faces to Avirex
I only know the fresh way, and on a stress day
I killed some Esses in Timbs and Peppes
Got guns for lead play

[Bloodshed]
I like to flash jewels, to the cops
to stash tools, made a lot of fast moves
So I can get +Cash Rules+

[Cam'Ron]
+Everything Around Me+

[Bloodshed]
Extort me? Now how that sound B
I'm down with a pound that put rounds in clowns G
At the dice game, I keep the clean bank
Four foxes, clean gank, I ain't having nothing to be frank

(Chorus)
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday
Baby Doin It
Saturday, Sunday, a weekend thing
You know that we Doin It
I'll Time for Doin It (Hey) 8x

[Mase]
18 I'm depressed, only dream of success
I want C.R.E.A.M. to invest, I want a Beamer and Lex
Now I never was broke, when I was out measuring coke
Still I treasure my smoke, bought hoes leathers and ropes
I lost several men, in the borough and
I was out in Baltimore Maryland, trying to flip some herion
I sold bags of dust, I needed cash and plus
Dash Deluxe all we really had was us
I don't have to tell of fib, where I dwell and live
Bout what my fellas did
Homicide notify your relatives

[Bloodshed]
Sometimes I lounge in the crib, on the dolo for delf
Ain't combining my wealth, but sometimes I find myself
Wakin up in champagne shaped bathtubs, sippin some Alize
With a girl named Fay', giving me back rubs
Screaming she love but a Blood ain't a lady lover
I got brothers, baby mothers, on my mine just like latex rubbers

[Cam'Ron]
And I don't mess with hicky bringers
But I stuck a few tricky swingers
And had the girls screaming loud as Sticky Fingaz

[Bloodshed]
Ha, I like dimes I don't prefer the chickens
Chicks I'm known to stick them and leave 'em drippin wet like murder victims

[Cam'Ron]
Yo to me, women be crazy loyal
Some say that I may be spoiled
Cause I get rubbed down all day with baby oil
I hit you while your man is high
You be like damn his vibe, damn this guy
He had me open like I drink some Spanish Fly
I'm into nicks and hits... and a
Flicks to slicks, see the guys get stuck
But the chicks I stick

Overall Meaning

The song "Doin' It" by Children of the Corn talks about the lifestyle of rappers and their crew. The first few lines mention how having guns, technology, and respect is good, but it's pointless if their income doesn't meet expectations. They rap about their riches, how their enemies can't see them even in 3D ghost figures, and how jealous people can get. They talk about their killer fashion sense, expensive watches, and expensive taste in women. The song also mentions the crimes they have committed, dealing with drugs, and killing people, along with their desires for success and wealth.


The song is essentially about the lavish lifestyle of Children of the Corn members when they first started their rapping career. The group consisted of Big L, Cam'ron, Mase, McGruff, and Bloodshed. Big L and Bloodshed both died in the late 90s, which added significance to their work. Children of the Corn was established in the early 90s and stems from Harlem's hip-hop scene. The group popularized the use of the catchy phrase "Doin' it" in rap music.


Line by Line Meaning

Aiiyo what good is all the guns and techs And dumbs respect to keep your sons in check If your cash don't come correct?
What's the point of having weapons and high-tech equipment, even earning respect from surrounding peers, if you can't make proper payment for the things you need/owe?


Yeah I agree G Cause most niggaz got ghost figures In 3-D and still can't see me
I am in agreement because many people pretend to have worth, yet they are not capable of seeing me deservingly come up due to the level of impressiveness I present them with.


True, but people tend to get very jealous When I got the Perry Ellis, but get the skelly when I'm buried fellas And kids look at me, they crew be stressed They thinking yo "He do be fresh" Making more deliveries then UPS But those that schemers used to diss me when I was a dreamer But now I pack the nina when my crew is in the beamer
Although it is true, people become very envious when they see me shining in my Perry Ellis clothing; yet, they will only offer more basic, skeleton style attire when I pass away. People look at me and see my crew's stress and start to think "Oh, he looks fresh." Moreover, I make more successful deliveries than UPS, and the people who used to insult me when I was only dreaming of success now have to worry when my crew rolls up in a BMW with a deadly weapon on us.


Yo they used to think I was psycho Cause I put the juice container in my bike to make it sound like a motorcyle But now, I could afford a Ninja I could even afford a Lex with all the trips to and from Virgina See I'm all about cash profits Expensive objects like tag watches And bagging chickenheads in "Snack Boxes"
People used to think I was crazy just because I would imitate the sound of a motorcycle with cardboard juice containers on my bike. But times change, and my monetary success has enabled me to buy an even more elite bike and Lexus car due to all the many trips to-and-from Virginia I have successfully been on. I solely care about making profit and spending it on expensive items like Tag watches, and I also involve myself in taking many women around for my own pleasure.


Cause I'm a plagarist that always pulls his razor quick And keeps the flavor chicks that got North Faces to Avirex I only know the fresh way, and on a stress day I killed some Esses in Timbs and Peppes Got guns for lead play
As a plagiarist, I always carry a blade and am ready to use it at any moment. I pick up the girls with North Face backpacks all the way to Avirex enthusiasts, looking to stay fresh at all times. Moreover, whenever I am under duress, I just wear my Timbs or Peppes boots and give the Esses hell. Lastly, I keep guns at the ready for any lead plays that may happen.


I like to flash jewels, to the cops to stash tools, made a lot of fast moves So I can get +Cash Rules+
I enjoy showing off my fancy jewels to the police or anyone; it is a way of storing away my illegal tools or other harmful items to prevent getting searched. I have been able to make many sudden and fast moves everywhere possible, especially to make enough money to live by my own rules.


+Everything Around Me+
Everything that surrounds me, both good and bad, is all I am aware of.


Extort me? Now how that sound B I'm down with a pound that put rounds in clowns G At the dice game, I keep the clean bank Four foxes, clean gank, I ain't having nothing to be frank
Trying to extort me? That sounds impossible because I have a trusted, loyal friend carrying a weapon closely by my side. I keep my money clean and stashed, using four foxes to keep it secure in case of emergencies. I am not a liar or a cheat unlike some others, so there is no reason for me to hide anything.


Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday Baby Doin It Saturday, Sunday, a weekend thing You know that we Doin It I'll Time for Doin It (Hey) 8x
From Monday through Friday, we work really hard at staying successful until the weekend arrives when then we can finally take our time and relax doing what we want. There is always time to indulge in pleasurable activities, and we intend to do just that.


18 I'm depressed, only dream of success I want C.R.E.A.M. to invest, I want a Beamer and Lex Now I never was broke, when I was out measuring coke Still I treasure my smoke, bought hoes leathers and ropes I lost several men, in the borough and I was out in Baltimore Maryland, trying to flip some herion I sold bags of dust, I needed cash and plus Dash Deluxe all we really had was us I don't have to tell of fib, where I dwell and live Bout what my fellas did Homicide notify your relatives
When I was 18 years old, I experienced severe depression and only wanted to have financial success. I wanted to invest in C.R.E.A.M. and buy a BMW and Lexus car. I was never broke due to measuring cocaine to make money; still, I had the time of my life indulging in smoking it and purchasing expensive clothing and women. I experienced the loss of friends along the way, both where I existed (the boroughs) and in Baltimore, Maryland where I was trying to make money by selling heroin. My job was just selling bags of dust to make enough money to live and survive in my economy, and I only had myself to trust. I won't tell any lies about where I live or what I do, and if anyone messes with me or my friends, homicide investigators will let their relatives know.


Sometimes I lounge in the crib, on the dolo for delf Ain't combining my wealth, but sometimes I find myself Wakin up in champagne shaped bathtubs, sippin some Alize With a girl named Fay', giving me back rubs Screaming she love but a Blood ain't a lady lover I got brothers, baby mothers, on my mine just like latex rubbers
Every now and then, I just relax at home by myself without anyone else. I am not really interested in sharing my wealth with anyone else, but sometimes I wake up surrounded by luxurious items--sipping Alize in a bath shaped like a champagne glass and receiving back rubs from a girl named Fay. She yells out that she loves me, but my personal preference is women. Plus, I must always have my brothers and potential baby mothers on my mind or things could become somewhat problematic.


Ha, I like dimes I don't prefer the chickens Chicks I'm known to stick them and leave 'em drippin wet like murder victims
Honestly, I enjoy and immensely prefer attractive girls to unattractive ones. If I encounter average-looking chicks, I'll usually involve myself with them briefly and then separate, leaving them feeling like murder victims.


Yo to me, women be crazy loyal Some say that I may be spoiled Cause I get rubbed down all day with baby oil I hit you while your man is high You be like damn his vibe, damn this guy He had me open like I drink some Spanish Fly I'm into nicks and hits... and a Flicks to slicks, see the guys get stuck But the chicks I stick
Honestly, women are something special and very devoted to me personally. Some say that my preferences are quite indulgent because I love to consistently get rubbed down by baby oil. I'm also infamous for wooing women while they're currently intimate with their significant others. They wind up loving the way I treat them and praise me open to enjoying themselves. I am into both games and cinema and tend to thrive against men while flirting with women only to stick with them.


Nigga (Doin It) Killa (Doin It) Murda (Doin It) Bloodshed (Doin It) NFL (Doin It) Dame Dash BBO (Doin Iiiitttt)
We all have engaging names, such as Doin It, Killa, Murda, Bloodshed, NFL & others. We are also successful with multiple things in life such as Dame Dash BBO. As we do our business, we intend to indulge by doing it all over everything we place our minds and hands upon.
