Goodie Mob feat. V Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
About a little white girl that was born to soul
She was the first of a kind I was scared to speak
She had long red hair perfume sweet
And shouldn't be taboo but it is,
My night be your reality but its his
Night, right blue and all the blue above,
That tammy was, to condition of love.
I remember like it was yesterday
When I went over her house to play
Amy, Amy Amy Amy
She walked with me to the neighborhood
She showed you this neighbor good
I'm Amy, Amy, Amy, Amy.
Growin' up with so much fun
Wish we could be forever young
Said to wash the time go by.
I
My very first white girl, white girl
Uhh, call it if she just show us fine
My very first white girl, white girl
Don't feel sorry if I blow your mind.
Thanks for the memories
And now if you remember me, oh Amy
'cause I'll always remember you.
Shit, do you?
I'ma try me some new tool
If I work out for you, and it's mutual boo.
A lot of 'em fulfill like life ain't fair,
Sibling for me somebody out there
Ain't gotta be black, ain't gotta be yellow,
Ain't gotta be white, just gotta be wild.
If you're losing back slide in door
What the hell are we hiding for?
Amy Amy Amy Amy Amy
We can make it further man
If I wasn't the only brother you had
I'm Amy, Amy, Amy Amy
What's wrong with me and you?
As long as our love is true?
I still wonder why, uh
But you'll remind.
My very first white girl, white girl
Uhh, call it if she just show us fine
My very first white girl, white girl
Don't feel sorry if I blow your mind.
Thanks for the memories
And now if you remember me, oh Amy
'Cause I'll always remember you.
You really like each other a lot
And all her friends were really hot
But she was really a good dancer
Mm, her mam and dad were actually cool
Spent the whole summer in the pool
Smoking joints with her brother Johnny
I say Amy
You are the mother baby believe a lot
I see you shining from the far just the way you are
Amy, you're a superstar/
My very first white girl, white girl
My very first white girl, white girl
My very first white girl, white girl
Uh, call it if she just show us fine
My very first white girl, white girl
Don't feel sorry if I blow your mind.
Thanks for the memories
And now if you remember me, oh Amy
'Cause I'll always remember you.

Now here's a little story that must be told
Let me tell you a story that is worth hearing
About a little white girl that was born to soul
This is a story about a white girl who was a fan of soul music
She was the first of a kind I was scared to speak
She was unique and different from what I was used to, and it made me nervous
She had long red hair perfume sweet
She had beautiful long red hair and smelled really nice
And shouldn't be taboo but it is,
It shouldn't be considered taboo, but unfortunately, it is
My night be your reality but its his
What I experience at night may be different from what you experience, but it's still valid
Night, right blue and all the blue above,
The night sky was dark blue, and the sky above us was also blue
That tammy was, to condition of love.
The girl named Tammy was an example of what love should be like
I remember like it was yesterday
I remember this memory clearly, like it just happened
When I went over her house to play
I remember going over to her house to hang out and have fun
Amy, Amy Amy Amy
Her name was Amy, and it was something that stuck with me
She walked with me to the neighborhood
She walked with me to show me around the neighborhood
She showed you this neighbor good
She introduced me to the good things about the neighborhood
Growin' up with so much fun
Growing up was a lot of fun
Wish we could be forever young
I wish we could have stayed young forever
Said to wash the time go by.
It's funny how time flies
My very first white girl, white girl
She was my very first white girl that I had a connection with
Uhh, call it if she just show us fine
I don't care what you think, she looked great to me
Don't feel sorry if I blow your mind.
Don't be surprised if what I say shocks you
Thanks for the memories
Thank you for the memories we shared
And now if you remember me, oh Amy
If you remember me now, it will be because of her
'Cause I'll always remember you.
I will always remember her and what we had together
Shit, do you?
Do you understand the impact that she had on my life?
I'ma try me some new tool
I'm going to try something new
If I work out for you, and it's mutual boo.
If it works for both of us, then we can call each other 'boo'
A lot of 'em fulfill like life ain't fair,
Many people never find their true love, even if they think life is unfair
Sibling for me somebody out there
There is someone out there who is the perfect match for me
Ain't gotta be black, ain't gotta be yellow,
The perfect match for me doesn't have to be of a specific race
Ain't gotta be white, just gotta be wild.
They don't have to be white, but they do have to be unpredictable and fun
If you're losing back slide in door
If you are losing your connection with someone, you need to slide back in the door and rekindle the relationship
What the hell are we hiding for?
Why are we hiding our true feelings for each other?
You really like each other a lot
We had a strong liking towards each other
And all her friends were really hot
All of her friends were attractive
But she was really a good dancer
She had a talent for dancing
Mm, her mam and dad were actually cool
Her parents were actually really cool people
Spent the whole summer in the pool
We spent the entire summer swimming in the pool
Smoking joints with her brother Johnny
I smoked marijuana with her brother named Johnny
You are the mother baby believe a lot
You are a great person who I believe in a lot
I see you shining from the far just the way you are
I see you shining like a star from far away, just the way you are
Amy, you're a superstar
Amy, you are a superstar in my eyes
