Them Girls
Fred Durst/Run-D.M.C. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ahh, yo.. yo, why-yo yo
Yo yo, why-yo yo, yo
why-yo..
Seen this girl on the block by the boondock
On the spot she was down for the boot knock
Drop top, she was rockin the 2Pac
D said, "She's a vivrant thang..
vivrant thang, vivrant thang"
[Fred Durst]
Seen a girl so crystal clean, I mean
Since I been on the scene I dream of girls
in tube tops, pools on rooftops
Now this girl, who cruises to Tupac
Get this girl in my bathtub, give her a backrub
My bathroom's like a nightclub
A few ladies in my den, fondlin
A few ladies in the den, so bring some Jello in
And a mighty fine fellow in like myself
to organize the panties on the shelf
[Chorus: Fred Durst + Run]
Them girls, them girls, them girls I do adore
I like 'em sweet or fine, a genuine divine
All kinds I love 'em all
Them girls, them girls, them girls around the way
A like a lemon to a lime, the women so fine
Sometimes they make me say
[Run]
Had a fly girl cold called her honey
Went in spent up all my money
Fred went to bed with a girl from college (what?)
D told me she was lookin for dollars (dollar)
I be the MC that don't get played (played)
Girls come check in but the don't get paid (paid)
They might get naked but they don't get laid (laid)
Been schoolin these girls since I made first grade
[Fred Durst]
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh
I like the small girls, I like the tall girls
I like all the girls, bustin dirty call girls
So Run let's bring them girls in
and their girlfriends, but don't let the squirrels in
As for their boyfriends, they'll find joy when
their girlfriends come home and bring Limp Bizkit toys in
I like to rate shit when I'm in the snakepit
but no silicon cause I don't like the fake shit
[Chorus]
[Fred] Them girls (16X)
[Run]
Yo yo
Girls delight line, girls galore (ore)
Girls I never even seen before (ore)
The way they swayed and make me smile (smile)
But Run get the dimes on the top of the pile (pile)
[Fred]
Girls are freakin, things are good
The girls can fill up my neighborhood
But don't take my sunshine, I'll be okay
As long as them girlies, are here to stay
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Fred] Them girls [Repeat: x 16]
The song 'Them Girls' by Fred Durst/Run-D.M.C. is a song about the two artists' love for women. The duo expresses their deep affection and appreciation for women, particularly those from all walks of life, whether they are clean, streetwise, or college girls. In the song, they talk about the different types of girls they like and their peculiarities, such as a girl cruising to Tupac or one wearing tube tops, and how they find them attractive. The line "sometimes they make me say" could mean that women make them feel genuine emotions or that they are simply appreciating the beauty of women.
The artists mention being surrounded by women and how they are better off with them. Fred Durst talks about his luxurious bathroom that feels like a nightclub and how he loves surrounding himself with multiple ladies who fondle him. Run-D.M.C. talks about how they do not get paid to school these girls, and although they might get naked, they do not necessarily get laid, emphasizing that they are not in it for the sex. The song seeks to highlight the beauty, allure and value women hold in society.

Seen this girl on the block by the boondock
I saw a girl at the other end of the road
On the spot she was down for the boot knock
She seemed interested in hooking up
Drop top, she was rockin the 2Pac
She was driving a convertible and listening to 2Pac
Said, "Yo D, not me, whatchu got?"
I asked D for his opinion on her
D said, "She's a vivrant thang.. vivrant thang, vivrant thang"
D described her as a vibrant and energetic person
Seen a girl so crystal clean, I mean
I saw a girl who looked very attractive
Since I been on the scene I dream of girls in tube tops, pools on rooftops
Since I became famous, I fantasize about girls in skinny tops swimming on rooftops
Now this girl, who cruises to Tupac
This girl listens to Tupac as she drives
Get this girl in my bathtub, give her a backrub
I want to invite her over to my place and give her a massage
My bathroom's like a nightclub
My bathroom is so large it feels like a club
A few ladies in my den, fondlin
There are some girls in my room touching me
A few ladies in the den, so bring some Jello in
There are some girls in my room, so bring some Jello shots
And a mighty fine fellow in like myself to organize the panties on the shelf
I'm the best person to arrange and classify the underwear on the shelf
Had a fly girl cold called her honey
I met a cool girl and called her honey
Went in spent up all my money
I spent a lot of money on her
Fred went to bed with a girl from college (what?)
Fred hooked up with a college girl
D told me she was lookin for dollars (dollar)
D informed me that she's looking for someone rich
I be the MC that don't get played (played)
I'm the MC who never gets played by girls
Girls come check in but they don't get paid (paid)
Girls come to see me without getting paid
They might get naked but they don't get laid (laid)

Been schoolin these girls since I made first grade
I've been teaching these girls since I was a kid

I like all kinds of girls, including prostitutes
So Run let's bring them girls in and their girlfriends, but don't let the squirrels in
Let's invite the girls and their friends over, but not any strange or suspicious people
As for their boyfriends, they'll find joy when their girlfriends come home and bring Limp Bizkit toys in
Their boyfriends will be happy when their girlfriends bring them Limp Bizkit merchandise
I like to rate shit when I'm in the snakepit but no silicon cause I don't like the fake shit
I like to evaluate girls when I'm around them but I don't like girls with plastic surgeries
Girls delight line, girls galore (ore)
There are many girls around I can't resist
Girls I never even seen before (ore)
I'm discovering new girls all the time
The way they swayed and make me smile (smile)
The way they move is so alluring
But Run get the dimes on the top of the pile (pile)
But Run, please focus on the most attractive girls
Girls are freakin, things are good
Girls are crazy about me and things are going well
The girls can fill up my neighborhood
Girls flock in my neighborhood to see me
But don't take my sunshine, I'll be okay
But don't take away the girls I love, I can handle it
As long as them girlies, are here to stay
As long as there are girls around, I'm happy
Them girls (16X)
I love those girls
