Ricky J Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who brought ya sumthin' to shake around too
Lace the track
Place the rap
And I plan to
Take ya to tha dance floor
We can dance raw
These girls are lookin' hot
Its Ricky you can add the J if ur picky
I blaze the boot raise the roof
If ur with me
When I walk in
Everybody there starts talking and gawkin
Whether they be light or dark skin
Consider it lovin you girls more than a little bit
When were all alone you never know where this kid'll lick
Its sumthin' to see
We rock and roll with it
Ladies get up on the floor watch me flow with it
Chorus:
Now follow me when you hear the sound
Follow me let me show you how
Follow me let ya feeling me now
Follow me and we can get on down
Follow me whether you want to or not
Follow me yo the party don't stop
Follow me I don't give a what
Follow me you know what's up
Hold up!
Back again the mack is in
This cat is spectac
I wreck raps still the tranquilin'
Check dat I'm set when I grab the pin
I think I saw my ex-girlfriend (how ya been?)
I kick rappas when your popin'
Dance while its dropin'
Half of my apartment till I see the speakers popin'
Got my peoples hopin'
Cuz their feelin' the bop
It's the R don't forget it man
I'm keepin' it locked
Chorus:
Now follow me when you hear the sound
Follow me let me show you how
Follow me let ya feeling me now
Follow me and we can get on down
Follow me whether you want to or not
Follow me yo the party don't stop
Follow me I don't give a what
Follow me you know what's up
Keep followin'
Get on your knees and keep swallowin'
All up to my face (no please)

You wanna ride a Bently or a Jagwar
When ever see me your area inteirors leather
Party with me
Move your body with me
Get naughty with me
Girl you can take my wallett
If you want it smoothish
