Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

No jason statham but I'm bouta crank
I'm bouta go pull me some racks out the bank
We pulling up you would think that it's a tank
Stay with a rachet I feel like I'm clank
Serving that Walter white dodging the hank
Smoking the skunky you know that shit stank
My heart beating fast I think i'ma faint
I'm kissing my cup i'm in love with the drank
You would think my money growing on tree
Yea I want her I want her right on her knees
Fuck up the atmosphere burning down trees
I'm gettin cake n you gettin brownies
So much cake you would think i'ma baker
Get to that paper like hoe see you later
Fucking that pussy n nigga you ate her
Serving them packs I feel like a waiter
Serving them packs yea I cater
Yea i'm from Florida bitch I'm a gator
Pull up to ya crib like howdie do neighbor
Jit you ain't popping yeen got haters
Whipping them babies my pot is in labor
Light on that stick this not a light saber
Play some dumb send you to your savior
I'ma walking novel with all this paper
She said I got game like Pepe le pew
I'm spending old money I'm looking brand new
Dripping the drip I feel like shamu
I'm robbing the plug he like damn you
Don't stop
Nigga it's fuck you pay me
Finessed his ass sold a eighth for 80
Finessing these niggas yea I'm going crazy
I'm not a rapper no I'm not slim shady
But if I get rich i'ma try to fuck Hailie
Bust downs coming through yea on the daily
She like can I see you again baby
Maybe
I know a few hoes tryna taste me
Like mash potatoes I'm gravy
Strapped up one man army no navy
Ball with the team just like okc
This not a game hoe you can't play me
I'ma coon in the streets but I ain't got rabies
Post with them niggas who was raised up in Haiti
Gotta latin hoe who come through to shave me
And when she done she gon swallow my babies
She get nasty
Whip out the drake his face gon hit Degrassi
Hoe I post in the backseat
Make'em run like Ricky no track meet
Jit you a duck huh daffy
Said fuck class but still look classy
I'm getting groovy yea jazzy
Pulling up with the service no taxi
I'm with my dog I feel like shaggy
yeen no plug you serving baggies
Flippin the work just like krabby patty
You need some work just send me the addy
Yea I'm in Florida smoking on cali
She blowing my phone had to tell her don't nag me
Ain't gotta daughter but she call me daddy
Spanking that bih cause she a baddie




Get it from her momma she gotta fatty
Loose in the streets she need a daddy

Overall Meaning

The song "Crank That (Soulja Boy)" by Soulja Boy Tell'em - also known as DeAndre Cortez Way - is a catchy and fun hip-hop track that was released in 2007. The song starts with an introduction from "your Calvary kids" informing the audience that they've got a new song called "the Soulja Boy," followed by Soulja Boy himself boasting about his new Bathin' Ape shoes. The lyrics are mainly focused on the Soulja Boy dance, which involves a series of steps that includes "cranking it" (making a crank motion with your arms), "rolling" (rolling your body back and forth), and "Superman-ing that hoe" (an explicit reference to a sexual act).


The song's refrain repeats the phrase "watch me crank it, watch me roll, watch me crank dat Soulja Boy, then Superman that hoe" four times. The second verse includes Soulja Boy's description of his dance, in which he leans to the left and cranks that dance. He also takes aim at his haters, saying he's "jocking on yo bitch ass" and warning them that if they try to fight, he'll "cock on yo bitch ass." The song ends with a final repetition of the refrain and some additional ad-libs.


Overall, "Crank That (Soulja Boy)" is a fun and catchy song that helped to launch Soulja Boy's career. It's notable for its simple yet infectious beat, catchy lyrics, and the signature dance move that it inspired. The dance became a viral sensation on YouTube and other social media sites, leading to numerous parodies and imitations. Despite its explicit content, the song remains popular and has been referenced in TV shows, movies, and other media.

Thanks for subscribing "MA", much appreciated. I have memories of sitting on my grandfather's stool in his little workshop (no power, all hand tools) when I was a little bloke and winding away as fast as I could his hand crank bench grinder. Got the chance to buy a couple of these, snapped them up! best regards, Geoff Dunstan - My FJ Holden story
