Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Let me talk to 'em
Let me talk to 'em
Mmmmmmm
Let me talk to 'em
C'mon!
Shawty had them apple bottom jeans (jeans)
The whole club was looking at her
She hit the floor (she hit the floor)
Next thing you know
Shawty got low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low
Them baggy sweat pants
And the Reebok's with the straps (with the straps)
She turned around and gave that big booty a smack (hey)
She hit the floor (she hit the floor)
Next thing you know
Shawty got low, low, low, low, low, low, low, low
I ain't never seen something that'll make me go
This crazy all night spending my doe
Had the million dollar vibe and a body to go
Them birthday cakes they stole the show
So sexual
She was flexible professional
Drinking X&O
Hold up, wait a minute, do I see what I think? Whoa
Did her thing seen shawty get low
Ain't the same when it's up that close
Make it rain I'm making it snow
Work the pole I gotta bank roll
I'm gonna say that I prefer the no clothes
I'm in to that I love women exposed
She threw it back at me I gave her mo
Cash ain't a problem I know where it go
Hey shawty what I gotta do to get you home
My jeans filled with guap and they're ready for showing
Cadillacs laid back for the sexy grown
Patron on the rocks that'll make you moan
One stack (come on), two stacks (come on), three stacks (come on)
Now that's three grand
What you think I'm playing baby girl I'm the man
I'm dealing rubber bands
That's when I threw her legs on my shoulders
I knew it was over
That heny and Cola got me like a soldier
She ready for Rover, I couldn't control her
So lucky on me I was just like clover
Shawty was hot like a toaster
Sorry but I had to fold her
Like a pornography poster
She showed her
Whoa shawty yeah she was worth the money
Little mama took my cash
And I ain't want it back
The way she bent that back
Got all them paper stacks
Tattoo above her crack
I had to handle that
I was zoned in sexy woman
Let me show it make me want it
Two in the morning I'm zoned in
Them rosee bottles foaming
She wouldn't stop
Made it drop
Shawty dipped that pop and lock
Had to break her off that guap
Gal was fine just like my glock
The song "Low" by Original Cartel features sexually suggestive lyrics that describe a woman with a tantalizing figure who captures the attention of everyone at the club with her provocative dance moves. The song starts by describing the woman's outfit and her ability to dance, leading to a desire to take her home. The song's chorus repeats the words "Shawty got low" while emphasizing her physicality as the "whole club" is captivated by her performance.
In the second verse, the lyrics express admiration for the woman's sexuality, flexibility, and professionalism, who can make it rain and work the pole with ease. The lyrics also speak to the singer's wealth as he is willing to spend money to take her home. The bridge of the song features a fast-paced rap section, which describes the singer's wild night with the woman and his desire for her. The song then ends with a reference to the woman's beauty and the singer's attraction to her, comparing her to his gun.
Overall, the song's lyrics are very straightforward and offer little subtlety as they celebrate the female body, portraying it as something to be admired and desired.
