(featuring Nicole Ray)

[Intro: Nicole Ray (Ol' Dirty Bastard)]
Dirt Dog, Nicole Ray
Welcome home, you Dirty mutha-- Wu!!!
(2003, Brooklyn, Dirt Dog, Dirt Dog)

[Hook 4X: Nicole Ray]
Uh oh, Dirt Dog

[Chorus: Nicole Ray]
It's been so long (so long)
Since you've been gone (been gone)
So bring my body some heat (some heat)
To move slow to this beat (yeah, yeah)

[Ol' Dirty Bastard]
Dirt, the ol' shit, let me put my hands up your skirt
Been to you since I flirt, bet your knees get hurt
See your titties through your shirt, may I feel like Kurt
In bed, I put in work, I got a dick I'll squirt
I'm totally psyched, that this party all night
When I play the shelf, I'm fuckin' bitches, that ain't my hype
I got ass in my sight, girl, would you now blowin' the pipe
Jewelry, I wear, bite, I like that pussy tight!
Find my drugs in the street, stink assholes in seats
Holla at me, tweet, tweet, that's where the fucked up feet
Banana livin' bitches, fast it itches
Unwire Gucci stitches, get grain to riches
Get off the jock!

[Hook 4X]

[Ol' Dirty Bastard]
Let this bitch, pussy switch
I'm a dog, I itch, monkey, I'm rich
Settled in Brooklyn, only let crooks in
Ghetto black pussy, yeah, I fit in
Nigga, I'm most in, party's I'm hostin'
My note to cokes in, do the front row sting
Put your hot temperature, your pussy sent ya
Over here, I pimp ya, white and black I blend ya
Dick up like a roaster, you be like whose the
My music will lose ya, you miniture
I got this microphone, pulled back and cocked
And all sperm cells get off the jock!
Get off the jock! Yeah

[Hook 4X]

[Chorus]

[Bridge: Nicole Ray]
When you play that song
We be dancin' all night long
Feelin' sexy and so free
Music takin' over me

[Hook & Bridge to the end]

[Outro: Ol' Dirty Bastard]




Hot for you, comin' soon
Dirt McGirt..

Overall Meaning

The song 'Welcome Home' by Old Dirty Bastard ft. Nicole Wray starts off with the statement "Welcome home, you Dirty mutha-- Wu!!!" which suggests that the song is a return or homecoming for the rapper. The hook "Uh oh, Dirt Dog" gives an insight into ODB's nickname 'Dirt Dog'. The chorus states how long it has been since ODB has been gone and how the person singing the song needs some 'heat' which translates to the need for some party, some fun. The first verse by ODB discusses his sexual interests in a woman and how he likes to 'put in work' in bed. The line "I got a dick I'll squirt" is ODB's way of saying that he ejaculates a lot.


The second verse by ODB talks about how he is enjoying partying and having fun. He mentions that he is settled in Brooklyn and only lets 'crooks' in. The line "Get off the jock!" is repeated throughout the song and means to stop following and obsessing over someone. The song ends with the outro statement "Hot for you, comin' soon, Dirt McGirt" which reiterates ODB's nickname and could also mean that he has more songs coming soon.

This beat goes hard AF in 2022. I remem seeing them set this up for ODB when he came home. Got this hot ass track waiting for him

Zl Ye

i love this later stuff, it shows he could still do it sober, but you can tell he wasn't 100% into his music. its like he said on the MTV parole documentary, the drugs were what made him enjoy himself and lose himself in his art. you can tell there is an undiagnosed depression deep down

boddlook

He was diagnosed with bi polar. Which is a type of depression. Definitely right it doesn’t sound like he was into it. The enthusiasm seemed lacking like in his songs that blew him up like ghetto superstar.

KeneYah

Dirt was on parole and completely sober when he dropped this flameπŸ”₯πŸŒ‹πŸ’―πŸ‘πŸΎπŸŽ€πŸ˜

julissa annette

20 years later & it’s still a bopppp

Jeremy Bear

He wrote and sang this song two days after he was released from almost 3 years in prison and pre-release facilities. Sounds pretty good for being held down that long

J1 Patman

This beat is off the hook. The real og ODB. Cant beat old skool

Ken Masters

Is it me or is the Diwali riddim. Pure crack across the board. And ol' dirtys flow just rides the hell out this beat. I think him and Fab killed this beat the most.

Matthew T Laryea

Heard the song on the documentary, so I had to look for it
