Pimp
FatsO Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well you know I bet them horses
Well you know I bet them hounds
Well you know I'll bet on anything
That eats, that bleeds, that growls

Well you know
Yeah you know baby
Well I guess there's only one thing
I won't ever understand
Seeing as I bet on you
What the hell you doin' with all my money in your hand?

Someone saw you at a bus stop
Someone caught you on a train
Someone saw you wearing wigs and shades and a hundred different names

Someone saw
Someone always sees baby

Doesn't matter where you're headed
Or the places you look for shade
Cause baby I'll be looking for you
And I'll be dammed if I ever let you get away

Where you headed woman tell me?
Is there some place you'd rather be?
Oh! You're tired of the crime, the extortion, the lying?
Well remember, you led us into those three

I remember you're preaching baby –you be broke and you good for shit–
Oh no, no… I didn't put up with all of that crap, to take any disrespect

So saddle up my honey
Cause you be headed for a ride




From now on every little choice you wanna' make
Remember your ass is mine

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics of FatsO's song 'Pimp,' the artist is singing about his confidence in gambling. He is willing to bet on anything that moves, including horses and hounds. However, he questions what someone who he bet on is doing with the money he gave them since he saw them at different places, wearing different disguises.


He is obsessed with finding out where she is headed and who she is meeting. He doesn't want to let her get away- he is going to be on her tail wherever she goes. This is demonstrated in the lyrics, "Doesn't matter where you're headed, or the places you look for shade, cause baby I'll be looking for you, and I'll be damned if I ever let you get away." He accuses her of leading him into bad situations before, but he doesn't want to live by her advice anymore.


The chorus of the song asks where the woman is headed and if there's a place she'd rather be. He reminds her that he gave her the money she has and she led him into crime, extortion, and lying. He remembers her preaching to him that he is not good for anything, but he didn't tolerate her disrespect. The song ends with a declaration that FatsO is going to be in control- every decision the woman makes now is his responsibility.
