Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't dare you border my thing
Cause when I man come I don't come pan knife I come pan gun

Who want thing, hey

Frankfurt thing, hey
Munich thing, hey

Everything is the same thing
That thing between your legs

Gimme that thing dat mi order you

Mi have a little girl call Beatrice
Mi make love to her she get pregnant
9 months later she get a baby boy
What name little Dr Alban
But when we are home reggae music have to play
But we have a thing in common
But that no mean mi no love her and she don't love me
Sweet Beatrice what a thing
Gimme that thing dat mi order you

Sweet little thing you better watch yourself
You better watch yourself my pretty darling

Hey hey hey

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of Dr. Ring Ding's song 'Little Girl' are very direct, cautioning those who may try to cross the boundaries of what is his. The singer asserts that he will come not with a knife, but with a gun. When he demands "who wants a thing," it's clear that he may be referring to sexual gratification. He then goes on to list cities across the world, declaring that "everything is the same thing," and that he wants every "thing between your legs."

The lyrics then take a personal turn, as the singer reveals that he has a child with a woman named Beatrice. When they are at home, reggae music must play, perhaps signifying the influence of Jamaican culture. Despite their differences, they share a common bond, and he expresses that he loves her, although he still demands that she give him what he wants. The closing lines warn the object of his affections to be careful, perhaps as a reminder of the power dynamics at play in their relationship.
