Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I said I see some ladies in here tonight I might marry
Gone of the Belvee’ and ‘tron it’s too scary
Baby you can have whatever you like, the tooth fairy
I’ll do anything to leave here tonight with you, cherie
I said I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do

I said now what it is, what it do, home girl ain't got a clue
If I get you open all the things that I would do to you
Smack it up, flip it down, weigh it up, break it down
Lean you to ya side yeah and ask ya who’s ya daddy now
Ain't even gotta open your eyes, know what your looking at
And I ain't even have to open my eyes when I was cooking that
Guess it was love at first sight, eye contact
Remember the night we first met, I caught a contact
Now she's my ride or die, it’s us against the world
You know we both hustlin’ so hustlin’ is our world
Said I must've had too much to drink I’m in my G-Mode
So all the ladies repeat after me cause it’s the G-Code
Promise if I get locked, you’ll come and pay my bond
If you hear some niggas plotting on me, you’ll ring the alarm
And every time you give it to me it’s gon be the bomb
And in these unlucky streets you’re gon’ be my lucky charm

I said I see some ladies in here tonight I might marry
Gone of the Belvee’ and ‘tron it’s too scary
Baby you can have whatever you like, the tooth fairy
I’ll do anything to leave here tonight with you, cherie
I said I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do

I D-O, I D-O, I D-O oh oh
I, Vito, promise to treat this game, I D-O
Honor the code, not bring drama to mama’s peephole
Life’s a bitch but she's the only love that I know -ow -ow
So la-a-dee, after the “I Do’s” lets do Mercedes
Lets tie the knot, lets grab us a pot, lets make a baby
Looking back, I don’t know who threw this bouquet to me
But I walk down this aisle faithfully, cut that cake for me
I, Jay-Z, take this unlawful lady to have and to hold
And 'til the task force roll
To hug her every corner 'til I get ash from the cold
Or until I’ve amassed a fortune, too much cash for me to fold
Fold under pressure I would never, ever, ever, ever
Your secrets I treasure, for better or worse
You’ll always be my first love 'til death do us part
Pull a hearse up, my verse up

I said I see some ladies in here tonight I might marry
Gone of the Belvee’ and ‘tron it’s too scary
Baby you can have whatever you like, the tooth fairy
I’ll do anything to leave here tonight with you, cherie
I said I do, I do, I do, I do, I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do
(You know I do)
I said I do I do I do I do I do

Nothing's more attractive than a heavy praying woman
To a him and those and them been defecating on me (ughh)
Her would sense the heaven, and him when Andre omen
Baby I’m hell, save me, don’t bail
Crazy I tell you all of this in the middle of a club
Where words tend to get thrown around lightly like like like "love"
"Friend," "rock star" and "So and so’s a genius"
So him vow to never utter him do unless him mean it
Her proud like her mother and ooohh momma’s sweet
So you just know that Juicy fruit ain't gon’ fall too far from tree
So if we ever woop the woop
I want all that bleepty bleep
On this nasty carpet Bixby fresh on one knee
Say I do I do I do I do I do
So we can float up outta here in this hot air balloon
Lets put a baby butterfly up in your lil’ cocoon
And maybe twenty-thirty our baby, she’ll be nerdy make the whole club swoon

She'll love books and cook and look just like you




And when she's done being young, she'll dress like you
We'll call her Love twenty-two, she'll tote a twenty-two, the laser version

Overall Meaning

The song "I Do" by Jeezy featuring JAY Z and Andre 3000 is about the men's commitment to their partners. They start by admiring the women in the club and expressing their willingness to get married. They then start talking about how they will treat their significant other with respect and never bring any drama to her doorstep, and that they will be her ride or die. The chorus, which is repeated several times throughout the song, emphasizes their commitment as they say "I do." The final verse by Andre 3000 talks about how he wants to have a daughter with the woman he loves and raise her to be just like her.


The first verse shows the guys' playful and flirtatious side. They are out at a club, enjoying some drinks, and admiring the women around them. The use of the word "cherie" implies they are looking for a romantic connection, and they are willing to do whatever it takes to achieve that. They reference the tooth fairy, which could be interpreted as a way of saying they are willing to make any dream come true for their partner.


The second verse is more about their serious commitment to their relationship. They talk about how they will be together no matter what and how they don't want any drama. The lyrics "life's a bitch, but she's the only love I know" suggests that they recognize that life can be challenging, but they are willing to make it work because they love their partner. The use of the word "unlawful" in Jay Z's verse is interesting because it means not conforming to the law or refusing to obey it. One interpretation could be that he is saying he will not let anyone or anything come between them and their love.


Overall, the song is a celebration of commitment, love, and respect. The lyrics show that the guys are willing to do anything to make their relationship work and that they are dedicated to their partners. The chorus, repeated throughout the song, emphasizes the certainty of their commitment.

Let's get married, start a life together, and have a child


Looking back, I don’t know who threw this bouquet to me
Looking back, I don't know who introduced me to this way of life


But I walk down this aisle faithfully, cut that cake for me
But I am committed to this way of life and ready to celebrate


I, Jay-Z, take this unlawful lady to have and to hold
I, Jay-Z, commit to taking this woman who is involved in illegal activities to have and to hold


And 'til the task force roll
And until the police come and arrest us


To hug her every corner 'til I get ash from the cold
To protect her at every turn until I die


Or until I’ve amassed a fortune, too much cash for me to fold
Or until I become wealthy and have too much money to quit


Fold under pressure I would never, ever, ever, ever
I will never give up under any pressure


Your secrets I treasure, for better or worse
I treasure your secrets, no matter what could happen in our relationship

You will always be my first love, until we die


Pull a hearse up, my verse up
Bring a hearse to us, because I am ready to die for you


Nothing's more attractive than a heavy praying woman
A woman who prays heavily is very attractive


To a him and those and them been defecating on me (ughh)
To those who have been mistreating me


Her would sense the heaven, and him when Andre omen
She would sense the presence of heaven, and I am like an omen to Andre


Baby I’m hell, save me, don’t bail
I am like hell, please save me and don't leave me


Crazy I tell you all of this in the middle of a club
It's crazy that I am confessing all of this in the middle of a club


Where words tend to get thrown around lightly like like like "love"
Where people use words casually, like the word 'love'


"Friend," "rock star" and "So and so’s a genius"
People use words like 'friend', 'rock star', and 'genius'


So him vow to never utter him do unless him mean it
I vow to never say 'I do' unless I truly mean it


Her proud like her mother and ooohh momma’s sweet
She is proud like her mother and her mother is very sweet


So you just know that Juicy fruit ain't gon’ fall too far from tree
You know that her daughter will resemble her mother closely


So if we ever woop the woop
So if we ever have to flee


I want all that bleepty bleep
I want everything that we've worked hard for


On this nasty carpet Bixby fresh on one knee
On this dirty carpet, I am fresh on one knee


Say I do I do I do I do I do
Say 'I do' multiple times like I did


So we can float up outta here in this hot air balloon
So we can leave this place in a hot air balloon


Lets put a baby butterfly up in your lil’ cocoon
Let's have a baby together


And maybe twenty-thirty our baby, she’ll be nerdy make the whole club swoon
And maybe in twenty or thirty years, our child will be intelligent and impressive and everyone will be impressed


She'll love books and cook and look just like you
Our child will love books and cooking, and will resemble you


And when she's done being young, she'll dress like you
When she grows up, she'll dress like you


We'll call her Love twenty-two, she'll tote a twenty-two, the laser version
We'll name our child 'Love twenty-two', she'll carry a gun, the laser version
