Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Baby, I don't wanna hurt nobody
But there is something that I must confess (to you)
I don't see nothing wrong with a little bump and grind (with a little bump and grind)
I don't see nothing wrong, baby baby, hey
I don't see nothing wrong (I don't see nothing wrong)
With a little bump and grind (with a little bump and grind)
Lookie here
See I know just what you want and I know just what you need girl
So baby bring your body to me (bring your body here)
I'm not fooling around with you
Baby my love is true, with you
(With you is where I want to be) Is where, I wanna be
Girl you need someone, someone like me to satisfy your every needs
I don't see nothing wrong (I don't see nothing wrong) with a little bump and grind (With a little bump and grind)
I don't see nothing wrong, baby, baby
I don't see (I don't see nothing wrong) I don't see
With a little bump and grind (nothing wrong with a little, bump and grind)
I don't see nothing wrong, baby, hey
You say he's not treating you right
Lady spend the night now
I'll love you like you need to be loved (Baby, girl won't you try some of me)
No need to look no more because I've opened up my door
You'll never, you'll never want another love, baby you'll never find another me
You see you need someone, someone like me, yeah to make love to you baby, constantly
I don't see nothing wrong with a little bump and grind (I don't see hey, nothing wrong)
I don't see nothing wrong, oh

I don't see nothing wrong, baby, baby, alright
I don't see nothing wrong, I don't see nothing wrong, with a little bump and grind (nothing)
I don't see nothing wrong, I don't see, I don't see nothing wrong
I don't see nothing wrong, no, no, no with a little bump and grind
I don't see nothing wrong, nothing wrong, nothing wrong, nothing wrong
I don't see nothing wrong (baby baby baby baby baby baby baby baby) with a little bump and grind
R. Kelly's "Bump n' Grind" is a sensual R&B song about a man who is conflicted between his mind and his body. His mind tells him that he should not pursue the woman he desires, but his body is telling him to go ahead and do so. The lyrics imply that the woman is not being treated properly by her current partner and that the singer can offer her the love and satisfaction she needs. He invites the woman to come to him and promises to love her like she needs to be loved. The song’s most famous line is “I don't see nothing wrong with a little bump and grind”, which refers to his desire to have a sexual encounter with the woman. The song’s lyrics are considered controversial due to their explicit sexual content.
The song was a massive hit and helped cement R. Kelly's status as a major R&B performer in the mid-1990s. It has been remixed and sampled by numerous other artists since its release, and it continues to be a favorite on radio stations and at parties. The track has a mid-tempo groove that is perfect for dancing, and it features Kelly's smooth, soulful vocals.
