Do It
Pitbull feat. Mayer Hawthorne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I like the way that sounds (Reportin' live from Spain)
I'm 'bout to do it for ya
I like to break it down (Tuxedo)
This joint has got me open
Uh that's my favorite song (Mr. Worldwide)
I put my thing in motion (I don't know how I do what I do)
I do it all night long (I just do it)
You know the resume
Call it what you want, boy as it may
Not from the bay but hella paid
Every day above ground is a good day so I celebrate
Mami got that bubble-yum booty
I wanna run through it like Rudy
She said "do you own Nike?"
I said "not yet", she said "then just do it"
Fresh at the Grammy's in a tuxedo
Play about 18 holes on any given day
Tiger Woods steelo, yea I get around but only on the D low
Now I'm changing the world
Just to think I used to dream about kilos
Bank account used to be negative
Now it's like that thing on reload, do it
I got a new one for ya
I like the way that sounds
I'm 'bout to do it for ya
I like to break it down
This joint has got me open
Ooh that's my favorite song
I put my thing in motion
I do it all night long
Do it, do it, do it
Oh, here I go again
(Gotta hit 'em with that) Do it
Do it
Do it
(Hit 'em, hit 'em with that) Do it
(Yea, go ahead baby and) Do it
(Go ahead baby and) Do it
(Go ahead baby and) Do it
(That's right)
They want just never heard before,
Never seen before, never worn before
But if they only knew everything's been done before
I'm half of an outcast like Love Below
Instagram, now they take pics
When I was growing up Instagram was a nick
Man what a trippin'
Bogota, Medellin, Colombia
Man what a trip
If you been there
Then you know what I'm talkin' bout
I'm runnin' through the world, y'all walk it out
It's a marathon, not a sprint
Long term, that's how I think
My life could've turned out ugly
I'm talkin' ugly, generino
But I turned it all around and hit the jackpot
De Niro, Casino, dale woo!
I got a new one for ya
I like the way that sounds
I'm 'bout to do it for ya
I like to break it down
This joint has got me open
Ooh that's my favorite song
I put my thing in motion
I do it all night long
Do it, do it, do it
Oh, here I go again
(Gotta hit 'em with that) Do it
Do it
Do it
(Hit 'em, hit 'em with that) Do it
(Yea, go ahead baby and) Do it
(Go ahead baby and) Do it
(Go ahead baby and) Do it
(That's right, take it to the bridge)
Been working hard and now the weekend is here
Give it yo best shot
Show me what you got (It's time to)
Light one, put it in the atmosphere
Give it yo best shot
Show me what you got
I got that lightning feeling from my head to my toes
Give it your best shot
Show me what you got
So tonight I'm really gonna let myself go
Give it your best shot
Show me what you got

Jump out the sandbox
Come play with these big boys
You know we're cooler than a polar bear toe nails
Oh yea
That's right
