Strike
Nikki Flores Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She said that there gonna be a party down at Misty's later
Felling lonely down and so confused I told her meet me there by two
So I pulled up at the party jeans all painted on
Escada pumps Gucci hat got my cellular
Then I saw him he was too damn fine I knew I had to make him mine
So here's the deal
He knows exactly how I feel
Yes I'm in love
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
Fly yeah he gives me such a high
I ain't got nothing left to hide
He knows what he's got
Strike while the iron's hot
Sat with my girls looking straight over at his direction
Party was bumpin yeah he got me feeling our connection
Caught my eye as he passed me by and asked me how I'm doing tonight
My heart was racing couldn't see nobody else but him
As he moved closer he began to make me weak inside
But then I knew boy that it was you
You knew exactly what to do
So here's the deal
Yeah my baby keeps it real
He knows exactly how I feel
Yes I'm in love
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
Fly yeah he gives me such a high
I ain't got nothing left to hide
He knows what he's got
Strike while the iron's hot
He tells me "que vistoso, un diezmo"
Asi es como mi amor me dice que me quiere
"que vistoso, un diezmo, baya"
That's how my baby tell me that he love me
"que vistoso, un diezmo"
Asi es como mi amor me dice que me quiere
"que vistoso, un diezmo"
Strike while the iron's hot
So here's the deal
Yeah my baby keeps it real
He knows exactly how I feel
Yes I'm in love
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
Fly yeah he gives me such a high
I ain't got nothing left to hide
He knows what he's got
Strike while the iron's hot
So here's the deal
Yeah my baby keeps it real
He knows exactly how I feel
Yes I'm in love
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
Fly yeah he gives me such a high
I ain't got nothing left to hide
He knows what he's got
Strike while the iron's hot
The lyrics of Nikki Flores's song "Strike" describe a situation where the singer sees a guy she's instantly attracted to at a party. She decides to pursue him and tells her friends to strike while the iron is hot. There's a lot of emphasis on how the guy is a "roughneck with a bad boy independence" but he also keeps it real and knows exactly how she feels. She describes feeling lonely and confused before seeing the guy, so it seems that her attraction to him is a spark that enables her to feel more grounded.

Rollin in my ride I saw my brother's girl Christina
While driving around, I spotted Christina who told me about a party happening later
Felling lonely down and so confused I told her meet me there by two
Feeling lost, I made plans to meet her at the party
So I pulled up at the party jeans all painted on
I arrived at the party wearing fashionable clothes
Escada pumps Gucci hat got my cellular
I accessorized with high-end designer brands
Then I saw him he was too damn fine I knew I had to make him mine
I laid my eyes on an attractive man and was determined to get him
He tells me "que vistoso, un diezmo"
He uses romantic Spanish phrases to express his love for me
That's how my baby tell me that he love me

Sat with my girls looking straight over at his direction
Sat with my friends, I gazed over at him
He knows exactly how I feel
My lover understands my emotions
He's a roughneck with a bad boy independence
My lover has a tough exterior with a rebellious streak
Fly yeah he gives me such a high
My lover is exciting and gives me a rush of happiness
I ain't got nothing left to hide
I have nothing to hide from my lover
