(J.D.)
So So Def
Uh huh, uh huh
Uh
Ohh
You need somebody to lay it dawn
Grab you by the your hair and show you exactly where to go
Lay it down
Don't stop, movie it fast
Tap that ass, I say nigga take it slow
Lay it down
Talk to ya, walk witch ya, through every single motion
Lay it down
I mean all the way down, leave a playa like you wide open
Ohh
(J.D.)
No I never had that before, so if you out here that's what I'm lookin' fo'
'Cause I keep gettin' these girls, but know
In the G I try to tell 'em what to do but they don't listen to me
I'm good on top
(J.D. & Lil' Mo) That's what they say
(J.D.) I wanna do it in your drop
(J.D. & Lil' Mo) That's what they say
(J.D.) I bet I'll make you say stop
(J.D. & Lil' Mo) That's what they say
Ones you get 'em in the sack there wont be none of that
It be a hole lotta action away, hole lotta' action, not enough play
For this boy "J"
What I need in my life is a wife that have the house jumpin'
Like the gentlemen's club on Monday night
When I come home, hunny doin' tricks
Shit, backflips, (?) like song
Meet me at the door with the double G
Sayin' "If your free!"
(Hook)
(R.O.C.) You gotta drop slooow, now fast
(J.D.) Bounce that ass
(R.O.C.) Get up!
(J.D.) (?) get cash
(R.O.C.) Like this?
(J.D.) Like that
(R.O.C.)
Like this and uh
Throw it at me like a picture when I give it to ya
Considering your appearance, under the influence
(?)
All I'm herein' is rumors "How she can make ya hotter"
(J.D.) Let her tell it
(J.D. and R.O.C.) Ohh
(R.O.C.) And she crazy with her mouth Peace
(J.D.) If you let her tell it
(R.O.C. and Lil' Mo) Was to lay you, they gonna lay you down
But im a gangster, G's don't get turned out
I heartbreak 'em like Jay-Z
(J.D.)
See I dun it all
(R.O.C.)
Wait
And im'a keep doin' it, baby that's just me
I don't cuddle in the linin', I couple up women
Enough of huddlin' in the linin', they lovein' the thug up in 'em
And yea I know I'm sinin', but it feel like Heaven
All of 'em keep yellin'
(Hook)
(J.D.)
No, I never had that before, oh no

No, I never had that before (so if you out here, that's what I'm lookin' fo')
Ohh no, I never had that before
Oh no, I never had that, ohh

The lyrics to Jermaine Dupri & R.O.C. feat. Lil' Mo's song Lay It Down is a mixture of sexual desires and the search for true love. Lil' Mo starts by singing about being someone's guide in the bedroom, showing them the right way to go until they reach their pleasure. Jermaine Dupri talks about his past experiences and not finding the right partner, while R.O.C. rhymes about his love for women and his approach to sex. The chorus is a repetition of the hook, with Lil' Mo enticing her partner to keep going, to not stop until she is satisfied.
The song is an R&B classic that explores the complexities of sex and relationships. The lyrics suggest a carnal desire for one night stands and casual sex, but at the same time, there is a sense of longing for something more profound. The song's title "Lay It Down" is a euphemism for sex, but it also suggests vulnerability, letting your guard down and letting someone into your life.
Overall, the song is a perfect mesh of sensualism, vulnerability and desire, and it shows the intricacies of human relationships, both emotionally and physically.
