Ciara Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My goodies, my goodies, my goodies
Not my goodies!

I got a sick reputation for handling broads
All I need is me a few seconds or more.
And in my rap
Tell valet to bring my 'lac
And I ain't coming back
So you can put a car right there.
I'm the truth
And ain't got nothin' to prove.
An you can ask anybody
'Cause they seen me do it.
Barricades, I run right through 'em
I'm used to 'em.
Throw all the dirt you want it's no use.
You still won't have a pinup in a fabulous room
On her back pickin' out baskets of fruit.
(I love you boo)
Yeah freak and Petey love you too.
Ha ha
You know how I do

You may look at me and think that I'm just a young girl
But I'm not just a young girl.
Baby this is what I'm lookin' for. I want a
Sexy, independent, I ain't wit so you already know
I'm not being too dramatic that's the way I gotta have it.

I bet you want the goodies.
Bet you thought about it.
Got you all hot and bothered.
Mayb' 'cause I talk about it.
Looking for the goodies
Keep on lookin' 'cause they stay in the jar

Just because you drive a Benz
I'm not going home with you.
You won't get no nookie or the cookies
I'm no rookie.
And still I'm
Sexy, independent
I ain't wit' it so you already know.
I'm not being too dramatic that's the way I gotta have it
You may talk slick
Trying hit
But I'm not dumb
I'm not being too dramatic it's just how I gotta have it

I bet you want the goodies.
Bet you thought about it.
Got you all hot and bothered.
Mayb' 'cause I talk about it.
Looking for the goodies
Keep on lookin' 'cause they stay in the jar

So damn hot but so young.
You ain't got milk on ya tongue
Slow down lil' one
You ain't got it all
Hey shorty you don't play the game
You think you bad but you ain't bad
I'll show you what bad is.
Bad is when you capable of beatin' the bag
I been workin' at it since I came to this planet
And I ain't quite there yet but I'm gettin' better at it.
Matter of fact,
Lemme tell it to you once more again
All I got to do is tell a girl who I am
Ain't no chick in here that I can't have

You're insinuating that I'm hot
But these goodies boy are not
Just for any of the many men that's trying to get on top.
No you can't call me later
And I don't want your number.
I'm not changin' stories
Just respect the play I'm calling

I bet you want the goodies.
Bet you thought about it.
Got you all hot and bothered.
Mayb' 'cause I talk about it.
Looking for the goodies
Keep on lookin' 'cause they stay in the jar

I bet you want the goodies.
Bet you thought about it.
Got you all hot and bothered.
Mayb' 'cause I talk about it.
Looking for the goodies
Keep on lookin' 'cause they stay in the jar





Yeah, yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Ciara's song Goodies ft Petey Pablo are centered on the empowerment of a young woman who knows what she wants and is determined to get it. Throughout the song, we hear about her "goodies," which represent her confidence, independence, and sexuality. She is not afraid to stand up to men who try to take advantage of her or chase after her, as she states that her "goodies" are not for just anybody. She is looking for a man who is sexy and independent, someone who will respect her and treat her like an equal.


The chorus of the song is a repetition of the phrase "I bet you want the goodies" which represents the attention and lust that the men in the song have for her, but she is not simply going to give herself away to anyone. The verse by Petey Pablo highlights his own confidence and abilities, but it is clear that Ciara is the star of the song, and she is not afraid to assert herself and demand what she wants.


Overall, the message of the song is clear: young women should be proud of their sexuality and independence, and they should demand respect and equality in all aspects of their lives.
