Got Your Money
Ol' Dirty Bastard;Kelis Lyrics

Oh baby
Addressing a loved one

I dedicate this to all the pretty girls
Singing for all the physically attractive women

All the pretty girls
Repeated emphasis on good looks

It's on
The song is starting

All the pretty girls, in the world
Not limiting the song to a certain group of people

And the ugly girls too
Acknowledging and accepting that not everyone is good-looking

Cause to me your pretty anyways baby
Beauty is subjective and the singer finds his significant other attractive regardless of societal norms

You give me your number, I call you up
Asking for someone's phone number

You act like your pussy don't interrupt
Referring to a sexual encounter that was not meaningful enough to interfere with everyday communication

I don't have no problem with you fucking me
The singer is open to a sexual relationship

But I have a little problem wit you not fucking me
The singer is frustrated with the lack of physical intimacy

Baby you know I'ma take care of you
Assuring his partner that he will provide for her

Cause you say you got my baby, and I know it ain't true
Denying claims that he is the father of someone's child

Is it a good thing? No it's bad bitch
Questioning the motives of someone's actions

For good or worse, makes you switch
People can change their behavior for better or worse

So I walk on over with my Cristal
Approaching someone with a bottle of expensive alcohol

Bitches, niggaz put away your pistols
Warning against violence

Dirty wont be having it in this house
Referring to himself in the third person and asserting his dominance

Cause bitch I'll cripple your style
Threatening to ruin someone's image or reputation

Now that you heard my charming voice
Boasting about his attractiveness and talents

You couldn't get another nigga, coochie won't get moist
Implying that the woman will not find pleasure from anyone else but him

If you wanna look good and not be bummy
Encouraging the woman to maintain her appearance

Girl you better give me that money
Demanding payment or compensation

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Repeating the main theme of the song: the woman has the singer's money

Don't you worry, I said hey
Reassurance

Yo! So I glanced at the girls, girls glanced at me
Observing the attraction between himself and the women around him

I whispered in their ear, wanna be with me?
Suggestively asking the women if they want to be intimate with him

You wanna look pretty though, in my video
Offering an opportunity to appear in his music video

Ol' dirty on the hat and I let you all know
Brandishing his 'Ol' Dirty' moniker and indicating his influence

Just dance! If you caught up in the Holy Ghost trance
Encouraging people to dance uncontrollably and invoke the feeling of being possessed

If you stop! I'ma put the killer ants in your pants
Using humor to threaten people from stopping dancing

I'm the O-D-B as you can see
Repeating his nickname and positioning himself in the limelight

Every eye, don't you be watching me
Demanding attention

I don't want no problems cause I put you down
Avoiding conflict because the singer is confident he can win any altercation

In the ground where you can not be found
Threatening to physically harm someone

I'm just dirt dog trying to make sum bunny
Reiterating that he is merely hustling to make money

So give me my streaks and give me my honey
Asking for his earnings and romantic pursuits

Radio, yes all day, everyday
Boasting about his frequent radio plays

Recognize I'm a fool and ya luv me!
Acknowledging his flaws but solidifies the notion that people enjoy his music

None of you nuh better look at me funny
Warning against staring or judging him

You nuh know my name now give me my money!
Emphasizing the importance of his wages and possessions

Sexy, sexy, sexy!
Repeatedly commenting on attractiveness

Sexy, sexy, sexy!
Repeatedly commenting on attractiveness

Sexy, sexy, sexy!
Repeatedly commenting on attractiveness

Yo, yo!
Starting the final verse

Nigga playing in the club like this all night
Describing someone dancing intensely in the club

Bitches put your ass out let me hold it tight
Asking women to allow him to hug them closely

You looking at my wrist saying "its so nice"
Boasting about his jewelry

The price bitch is diamonds shining disco light
Asserting that his diamonds cost a lot of money and are very shiny

You better help me solve my problem
Asking someone to help him deal with an issue

Or I'ma get this money and rob them
Threatening to steal money from someone

Lucky dog when I won the lotto
Celebrating his luck

Ran up on my car for carrying kilos
Revealing that he has previously been caught carrying drugs

You can call me dirty, and then lift up your skirt
Offering women the chance to use his nickname and be provocative

And you want some of this dirty, god made dirt and dirt bust yo ass
Jokingly offering to get intimate and emphasizing his tough persona

Stop annoying me, yeah! I play my music loud
Asking someone to leave him alone and asserting his love for loud music

It takes the bastard ol' dirty, to move the crowd
Praising himself and his music's power to entertain

They say he had his dick in his mouth
Addressing rumors about his alleged homosexuality

Eddie Murphy told me that back in the house
Name-dropping another celebrity and dismissing the rumors

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Repeating the chorus again

Don't you worry, I said hey
Reassurance

Baby I got your money
Repeating that the woman has the singer's money

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Repeating the chorus again

Don't you worry, I said hey
Reassurance

Baby I got your money
Repeating that the woman has the singer's money

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Repeating the chorus again

Don't you worry, I said hey
Reassurance

Baby I got your money
Repeating that the woman has the singer's money

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Repeating the chorus again

Don't you worry, I said hey
Reassurance

Baby I got your money
Repeating that the woman has the singer's money
