Jackin' for chicks

I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a flirt
Soon as I see her walk up in the club, I'm a flirt
Winkin' eyes at me when I roll up on dem dubs, I'm a flirt
Sometimes when I'm wit' my chick on the low, I'm a flirt
And when she's wit' her man lookin' at me, damn right I'm a flirt
So, homie, don't bring your girl to me to meet 'cause I'm a flirt
And, baby, don't bring your girlfriend to eat 'cause I'm a flirt
(It better be real tight too, you know what I'm talkin' 'bout?)
Please believe it unless your game is tight, and you trust her
(You bring your girl around me, you better put your best pimp forward)
Then don't bring her 'round me 'cause I'm a flirt

I'm a be pimpin'
I don't be slippin'
When it come down to dem suckas
I don't love 'em
We don't cuff 'em
Man, that's just the way it goes
I pull up in the Phantom
All the ladies think I'm handsome
Jewelry shining, I stay stuntin'
That's why these niggas can't stand 'em
I'm a chick magnet
And anything fine, I'm baggin it
And if she got a man, I don't care
Ten toes, and I wanna be 'cause I gotta have it
Now, now who do it like B-O-dub?
Girls on me when I walk in the club
Game ain't tight, I'm a take yo' chick
That's it man, now your girl in love
With a rich nigga, fly young dude
Ride wit' me, lil' mama can't lose
Don't get mad at me, homie, 'cause yo' girlfriend choose
See, this is how goin' down in da 6-1-4 from the Nati up to Cleveland even in Toledo
I'm a boss, and you know it
I got the money, I'm a show it (that's right)
If I give yo' girl one chance to talk to me, homie, she ain't gon' blow it
And I stay fly, my game's so tight
This just fo' one night, don't catch no feelings
I'm gonna be wit' another chick in the next city 'cause I'm a flirt

I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a flirt
Soon as I see her walk up in the club, I'm a flirt
Winkin' eyes at me when I roll up on dem dubs, I'm a flirt
Sometimes when I'm wit' my chick on the low, I'm a flirt
And when she's wit' her man lookin' at me, damn right I'm a flirt
So, homie, don't bring your girl to me to meet 'cause I'm a flirt
And, baby, don't bring your girlfriend to eat 'cause I'm a flirt

(You bring your girl around me, you better put your best pimp forward)
Then don't bring her 'round me 'cause I'm a flirt

I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a flirt
That's right, I tell the truth and the whole truth
When it come to hos, I be pimpin' like I supposed to
Runnin' 'em like I supposed to, shinin' like I supposed to
In the club fuckin' wit' honies like I supposed to
I don't understand when a nigga bring his girlfriend to da club
Creppin' all over the floor wit' his girlfriend in da club
And wonder why all these playas tryin' a holla at her
Just soon as she go to the bathroom, nigga, I'm a holla at her
A dog on the prowl when I'm walkin' through the mall
If I could, man, I would probably walk out wit' all of y'all
Yeah, yeah, homie, you say she yo' girlfriend
But when I step up to her, I'ma be like buzzin' and
Believe me, man, this is how dem playas do it in the Chi
And plus we got them playaette foolers in the Chi
Now the moral of story is cuff yo' bitch 'cause, hey
I'm black, handsome, I sing 'cause I'm rich, and I'm a flirt

I'm a, I'm a, I'm a, I'm a flirt
Soon as I see her walk up in the club, I'm a flirt
Winkin' eyes at me when I roll up on dem dubs, I'm a flirt
Sometimes when I'm wit' my chick on the low, I'm a flirt
And when she's wit' her man lookin' at me, damn right I'm a flirt

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of R. Kelly's song "I'm a Flirt" talk about his flirtatious nature and his confidence to attract women. From the very beginning of the song, he establishes himself as a flirt and proceeds to explain how he flirts with women in the club, on the low with his girlfriend, and even with other men's girlfriends. He also warns men to keep their women away from him if they don't want him to steal them away.


As the song goes on, R. Kelly's lyrics make clear that he's not looking for serious relationships but rather temporary flings for one night. He proclaims himself as a "boss," showing that his wealth and fame gives him the power to get any woman he wants. The song also features T.I. and T-Pain, who deliver their own verses along the same theme of being flirts and living a fancy lifestyle.


Overall, the song promotes a superficial and sexist approach to relationships, but it also reflects the culture of the time when it was released in 2007.
