Oh baby
I dedicate this to all the pretty girls
All the pretty girls

All the pretty girls, in the world
And the ugly girls too
Cause to me your pretty anyways baby
You give me your number, I call you up
You act like your pussy don't interrupt
I don't have no problem with you fucking me
But I have a little problem wit you not fucking me
Baby you know I'ma take care of you
Cause you say you got my baby, and I know it ain't true
Is it a good thing? No it's bad bitch
For good or worse, makes you switch
So I walk on over with my Cristal
Bitches, niggaz put away your pistols
Dirty wont be having it in this house
Cause bitch I'll cripple your style
Now that you heard my charming voice
You couldn't get another nigga, coochie won't get moist
If you wanna look good and not be bummy
Girl you better give me that money

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Don't you worry, I said hey
Baby I got your money
Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Don't you worry, I said hey
Baby I got your money

Yo! So I glanced at the girls, girls glanced at me
I whispered in their ear, wanna be with me?
You wanna look pretty though, in my video
Ol' dirty on the hat and I let you all know
Just dance! If you caught up in the Holy Ghost trance
If you stop! I'ma put the killer ants in your pants
I'm the O-D-B as you can see
Every eye, don't you be watching me
I don't want no problems cause I put you down
In the ground where you can not be found
I'm just dirt dog trying to make sum bunny
So give me my streaks and give me my honey
Radio, yes all day, everyday
Recognize I'm a fool and ya luv me!
None of you nuh better look at me funny
You nuh know my name now give me my money!

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Don't you worry, I said hey
Baby I got your money
Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Don't you worry, I said hey

Yo, yo!
Nigga playing in the club like this all night
Bitches put your ass out let me hold it tight
You looking at my wrist saying "its so nice"
The price bitch is diamonds shining disco light
You better help me solve my problem
Or I'ma get this money and rob them
Lucky dog when I won the lotto
Ran up on my car for carrying kilos
You can call me dirty, and then lift up your skirt
And you want some of this dirty, god made dirt and dirt bust yo ass
Stop annoying me, yeah! I play my music loud
It takes the bastard ol' dirty, to move the crowd
They say he had his dick in his mouth
Eddie Murphy told me that back in the house
But give me my money!

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Don't you worry, I said hey

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Don't you worry, I said hey

Overall Meaning

The song "Got Your Money" by Ol' Dirty Bastard is a playful and somewhat provocative homage to female beauty and sexuality. The artist introduces the song by dedicating it to pretty girls, including the ones who might not conform to conventional standards of beauty. The lyrics then move on to describe a transactional relationship between the artist and a woman he's interested in. He wants to have sex with her and take care of her, but he also demands money from her. The chorus repeats the phrase "Hey, dirty, baby I got your money" several times, emphasizing the economic exchange at the center of the song.


The lyrics of "Got Your Money" also feature several instances of braggadocio and humor. Ol' Dirty Bastard describes himself as "dirt dog trying to make sum bunny," playing with the homophonic sounds of "sum" and "some" to suggest that he's after both money and sex. He references his own fame and charisma, claiming that "every eye, [is] watching me." At the same time, he mocks those who might judge him, saying "None of you nuh better look at me funny / You nuh know my name now give me my money!" The song's irreverent tone is also reflected in its music video, which features Ol' Dirty Bastard in various outrageous outfits, dancing with beautiful women and throwing money around.


Overall, "Got Your Money" is a catchy and energetic song that showcases Ol' Dirty Bastard's unique style and personality. While its lyrics can be interpreted as objectifying or misogynistic, they can also be seen as tongue-in-cheek satire of rap music tropes and gender expectations. Similarly, while the song's title and chorus suggest that money is the ultimate objective, the playful wordplay and brash humor of the lyrics suggest that Ol' Dirty Bastard is more interested in having fun and pushing boundaries.

I’m glad his estate made some money, but I hate it when they use my favorite old school funky jams to sell lame-ass widgets in ads.
