Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yo imagine, imagine the shit
Drunk as hell and shit
And you going into a fuckin' bar and shit
You stumbling over bitches and everything
Falling over everywhere, throwing up and shit

Yeah
Come on come on
Ah
I want all y'all people to feel what I feel
See my momma taught me this shit
And my daddy learned from my momma
Which is good! Which is good

Sweet sugar pie, oh I wish you were mine
Lookin' so good, like you know you should, yeah
And yeah, love you down, down baby
Oh my girlie, sweet my honey
You look so good to me
Love you down, all night long

I don't care, what you care, I just give, what you receive!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ol' Dirty Bastard's "Drunk Game" seem to be a stream of consciousness expression of being intoxicated and trying to find love. The opening lines are about stumbling into a bar while drunk and falling over, indicating the drunken state of mind of the singer. The next lines express admiration for a woman, calling her "sweet sugar pie" and saying that he loves her down all night long. This reflects the singer's desire for love and affection while drunk, possibly due to feeling lonely or disillusioned.


The next part of the song involves the singer asking if the woman loves him. He seems unsure of her feelings, saying that he needs to know if she loves him like he loves her. This indicates a feeling of insecurity and vulnerability while drunk. The song ends with the singer dedicating it to other musicians, but claiming to be the "baddest, hip-hop man, across the world," which could be interpreted as a mix of delusion and bravado.


Overall, the song seems to be a reflection of the singer's emotional state while intoxicated, including feelings of insecurity, vulnerability, and a desire for love and affection.

@danielbrealey2924

@PreDopeTV

He's not pretending to be ODB, he's as authentically close to an ODB as we're going to get. He's doing his own thing as Young Dirty Bastard

@OttomanZC

@@PreDopeTV He's not doing his own thing, he trying to be his father, but he is not real enough

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.
