Work, work
Workin' me (work), she workin' me (work, work)
Urgin' me (urge), it be urgin' me (yeah, yeah)
Just let up the top and close the curtain, please (skrrt, skrrt)
I decided to go up like Major League (goin' up)
She just popped the Perky just like pork and beans (Perky)
She hurtin' me, wrist strong, Hercules (hurtin' me)
Two cups, Martell pour it neat (two)
Serve a fiend, fuck a bitch, then go to sleep (serve, serve)
I need to get me a mil' before we leave (get me)
No key pull up, remember me (skrrt, skrrt)
'Member me, oh, 'member me (hey)
Take 'em way back, Lil Jon energy (Lil Jon)
Pockets real fat, Cashville ten a key (Young Buck)
Fire the blunt (woo), it done died off, yeah
Ride off (ride), bitches ride off, yeah (skrrt)
Your boss, he done died off, yeah (skrrt)
I just cut the dirty stove and powered off, yeah (hey)
Workin' me (work), she workin' me (work)
Urgin' me (urge), it be urgin' me (work)
Just let up the top and close the curtain, please (skrrt, skrrt)
I decided to go up like Major League (goin' up)
She just popped the Perky just like pork and beans (Perky)
She just popped the Perky, say I hurt her knees (hurtin')
She hurtin' me, wrist strong, Hercules (hurtin' me)
She hurtin' me, wrist strong, Hercules (Hercules)
I decided to go up, Major League (goin' up)
Call the plug, tell him bring a key (bring the key)
Then retire, with the Bucks, JT (JT)
Bought a coupe and told a rapper, "Race me" (skrrt, skrrt)
Remember when they used to curve me (swoop)
Now they wanna represent my earnings (represent it)
If you want smoke, smoke alarm me (smoke, smoke)
By yourself, no, bring your army (come and get it)
I'm havin' shit that gon' extinct your whole family (extinct)
I put 'em out, I feel like he done broke the leaves (ayy, ayy)
I put the work inside the wall behind the scene (work, work)
She attractin' all the dogs, but work for me (grr, work)
Workin' me (work), she workin' me (work, work)
Urgin' me (urge), it be urgin' me (yeah, yeah)
Just let up the top and close the curtain, please (skrrt, skrrt)
I decided to go up like Major League (goin' up)
She just popped the Perky just like pork and beans (Perky)
She just popped the Perky, say I hurt her knees (Perky)
She hurtin' me, wrist strong, Hercules (hurtin' me)
She hurtin' me, wrist strong, Hercules (woo)
In Quavo's "Workin Me," the rapper speaks about a woman who is constantly working him and urging him to pursue her. He compares his journey to success with that of a Major League player, and emphasizes that he needs to get a million dollars before moving on. In the first verse, he mentions a woman who has been taking Perky pills, leaving her knees in pain. Quavo then proceeds to brag about his wealth and the standards he holds himself accountable to. The chorus emphasizes that the woman is continually working him and urging him to pursue her, and he needs a break from her eagerness.
One possible interpretation of these lyrics is that Quavo is addressing someone who is throwing themselves at him and obstructing his focus on his career. He may feel that her constant needs are becoming distractions, and he needs her to take a step back. Additionally, he portrays himself as someone who is working tirelessly to achieve his goals and is willing to cut off anyone who gets in the way of his success.
In summary, Quavo's "Workin Me" is a song about wealth, success, and the sacrifices that come with them. While he acknowledges the appeal of a woman who wants him, he also indicates that she is becoming too demanding and intrusive.
