Take You Home With Me A.K.A. Body
R. Kelly Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Uh, uhh uhh, Kel's
Young, M, X, tra, money, let's go

[Chorus: x2]
Girl you know you got a body-adi-adi (do you like it?)
Where you get your little body-adi-adi (do you want it?)
Girl I wanna freak your body-adi-adi (what you want it?)
I just wanna take you home with me

She get it from her momma
You can't tie a sweater over that ass, or hide it in pajamas
We lay back, blowin' ganja
DVD, she make it hard to watch a flat TV, whoa
I crept up behind her
Mami threw it like a quarterback, I caught that like Rice
I call mami Montana, bandana
Tied her hands up, this is gangsta love
Threw on a rap CD, we gangsta fucked
This ain't R&B smooth, I ain't a R&B dude
Poured a glass of Army, got mama in the mood
Then she stripped for me like the "Moulin Rouge"
I think I might wife her
Y'know, powder blue Roc-a-Wear suit, white Nike her
Add mami to the cypher
R.O.C. for life cuz, the gang motherfucker

[Chorus]

I make ya hotter than the next bitch, no need
For you to ever sweat the next bitch, with speed
I make the next bitch see the exit, indeed
Gotta know you're ver-ily respected, by me
You get the keys to the Lexus, but no drive
You get your own 2002, she through ridin'
Keep yo' ass tighter than Versace
That's why you gotta watch yo' friends
You gotta watch me, they connivin' shit
See I just wanna freak your body-adi-adi
I know you don't do this for everybody-adi
But everybody ain't as horny as me
And your body's, callin', me

[Chorus]

Uhh, yeah
Mami shot through the pad with the Mark Jacobs bag
The thick stitched seam and her favorite ass jeans
Y'all know the first date wearers
To make objects bigger than they appear like a rear view mirror
Oh her shoe game is real
She gave 'em the Christian Libountins(?) with the four inch heels
But honestly my favorite type of gear
Is a scrungy for her hair and LaPearla underwear, clear?

Girl I hear you callin', let's stop stallin'
Do what we came to do
Girl I hear you callin', let's stop stallin'
Baby I want you, yeah





[Chorus]

Overall Meaning

In this song, R. Kelly and Jay-Z both express their desire to take home a girl with a desirable body. The chorus emphasizes their desire, as they ask the girl if she likes her body, where she got it from, and if they can take her home to have sex with her. The first verse describes the girl's body in detail, emphasizing her curvy figure and how it can't be hidden by clothing. The second verse describes how the singer makes the girl feel desired, respected, and special, giving her the keys to a Lexus but not letting her drive it. The last verse mentions the girl's fashion choices and how the singer finds her most attractive when she's wearing comfortable clothing like a scrunchie and LaPearla underwear.


Overall, the song objectifies and sexualizes women, reducing them to their bodies and using language that implies they are objects to be owned and used for sexual gratification. However, it also paints a picture of a relationship in which the woman is respected and cherished. This juxtaposition presents a problematic and potentially harmful message, as it presents a confusing and unrealistic expectation of women.
