Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But let me tell you now
But let me tell you now
You´ve gotta hold that sucker down
You can lift your man up
Give him all that he wants
You don´t mean a thing
But let me tell you now
But let me tell you now
But let me tell you now
You´ve gotta hold that sucker down
You can lift your man up
Give him all that he wants
You don´t mean a thing
If you can´t hold him down
You can take your man back
Tell him all that he wants
But let me tell you now
You´ve gotta hold that sucker down
But let me tell you now
But let me tell you now
But let me tell you now
You´ve gotta hold that sucker down
But let me tell you now
But let me tell you now
The lyrics to O.T. Quartet's song Hold That Sucker Down seem to describe a relationship where one partner is advising the other to be in control in the relationship. The phrase "hold that sucker down" is used repeatedly throughout the song and refers to holding the partner down in terms of maintaining control and power in the relationship. The song implies that one can "lift your man up" and give them everything they want, but it's not enough if you can't also maintain control.
The lyrics also suggest that the partner might try to leave or demand things, but the advice is to "take your man back" and "tell him all that he wants." Essentially, the message is that it's important to be strong and in control in the relationship to keep the partner happy and ensure that the relationship lasts.
