Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Peace up, A-Town down
Yeah! Okay (Usher, Usher, Usher)
Lil' Jon

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Up in the club with my homies, trying to get a lil' V-I
Keep it down on the low key
You should know how it feels (hey)
I seen shorty, she was checking up on me
From the game she was spitting in my ear
You would think that she know me
I decided to chill (okay!)
Conversation got heavy
She had me feeling like she's ready to blow (watch out!)
Oh! (watch out)
She's saying, come get me
So I got up and followed her to the floor
She said, baby let's go
When I told her (let's go!) I said

(Yeah!) Yeah!
Shorty got down low said, come and get me
(Yeah!) Yeah!
I got so caught up, I forgot she told me
(Yeah!) Yeah!
Her and my girl, they used to be the best of homies
(Yeah!) Yeah!
Next thing I knew, she was all up on me screaming
Yeah (yeah!) yeah (yeah!) yeah, yeah
Yeah (yeah!) yeah (yeah!) yeah, yeah

She's all up in my head now, got me thinking
That it might be a good idea to take her with me
'Cause she's ready to leave, ready to leave now (let's go!)
And that I gotta keep it real now
'Cause on a one to ten, she's a certified twenty
But that just ain't me (hey!)
'Cause I don't know, if I take that chance
Just where's it gonna lead
But what I do know is the way she dance
Make shorty alright with me
The way she get low
I'm like, yeah, just work that out for me
She asks for one more dance, and I'm like, yeah
How the hell am I supposed to leave
(Let's go, bring the beat back!) And I say

(Yeah!) Yeah!
Shorty got down low said, come and get me
(Yeah!) Yeah!
I got so caught up, I forgot she told me
(Yeah!) Yeah!
Her and my girl, they used to be the best of homies
(Yeah!) Yeah!
Next thing I knew, she was all up on me screaming
Yeah (yeah!) yeah (yeah!) yeah, yeah!
Yeah (yeah!) yeah (yeah!) yeah, yeah!

Watch out, my outfit's ridiculous
In the club looking so conspicuous
And roar, these women all on the prowl
If you hold the head steady, I'ma milk the cow (yeah!)
And forget about game, I'ma spit the truth (what?)
I won't stop 'til I get 'em in they birthday suit (yeah!)
So gimme the rhythm and it'll be off with their clothes
Then bend over to the front and touch your toes
I left the Jag and I took the Rolls
If they ain't cutting, then I put 'em on foot patrol (let's go!)
How you like me now?
When my pinky's valued over three hundred thousand
Let's drink, you the one to please (yeah!)
Ludacris fill cups like double D's (yeah!)
Me and Ursh' once more, and we leaves 'em dead
We want a lady in the street but a freak in the bed that say

(Yeah!) Yeah!
Shorty got down low said, come and get me
(Yeah!) Yeah!
I got so caught up, I forgot she told me
(Yeah!) Yeah!
Her and my girl, they used to be the best of homies
(Yeah!) Yeah!
Next thing I knew, she was all up on me screaming
Yeah (yeah!) yeah (yeah!) yeah, yeah!
Yeah (yeah!) yeah (yeah!) yeah, yeah!

Overall Meaning

The song "Yeah!" is a collaboration between Lil Jon, Usher and Ludacris, released in 2004. It has since become one of the most popular party anthems of all time. In the first verse, Usher is relating his experience at the club. He spots a woman who seems attracted to him and decides to approach her. They hit it off well, and her seductive moves make him forget that his girlfriend and the woman used to be best friends. Ludacris then steps in with a raunchy verse about how he would try and get any woman he is attracted to. Every time the chorus comes on, people usually shout along "Yeah!" which adds to the excitement of the song.


One interesting aspect of "Yeah!" is the production behind it. Lil Jon injected his signature "crunk" style in the song that was very popular with audiences at the time. The song also heavily samples "Metallica's "Sad but True," making it an unlikely hit that fused rock and hip hop. Besides this, the song's lyrics are quite risqué and explicit, showing the promiscuous side of the club scene.


Another notable point about "Yeah!" is its impact on Usher’s career. The song became one of the biggest hits of his entire career, spending 12 weeks on the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The exposure brought attention to him among a younger crowd and re-introduced him to a more extensive audience. Usher's dance moves in the video, including the famous "lean" and side-to-side head jerks, became a phenomenon and a staple of the song's legacy.


The song's popularity made it used in several TV shows and movies throughout the years. Among the shows include Glee, The Office, and Family Guy; among the movies, it was featured in Honey, You Got Served, and Hitch.


In conclusion, the song "Yeah!" has cemented its place as an iconic classic. With its infectious hook and catchy lyrics, it's been a favorite among partygoers and music fans for over a decade. Lil Jon, Usher, and Ludacris all showed their strengths in a genre-bending song that changed the landscape of hip hop music.
