Eenie meenie miney mo
Catch a bad chick by her toe
If she holla (if, if, if, she hollas) let her go

She's indecisive
She can't decide
She keeps on lookin'
From left to right
Girl, c'mon get closer
Look in my eyes
Searching is so wrong
I'm Mr. Right

You seem like the type
To love 'em and leave 'em
And disappear right after the song
So give me the night
To show you, and hold you
Don't leave me out here dancin' alone

You can't make up your mind, mind, mind, mind, mind
Please don't waste my time, time, time, time, time
I'm not tryin' to rewind, wind, wind, wind, wind, wind
I wish our hearts could come together as one

'Cause shawty is an eenie meenie miney mo lover'
Shawty is an eenie meenie miney mo lover'
Shawty is an eenie meenie miney mo lover'
Shawty is an eenie meenie miney mo lover' ooh

Let me show you what you're missin'
Paradise
With me you're winning girl
You don't have to roll the dice
Tell me what you're really here for (here for)
Them other guys?
I can see right through ya

You seem like the type
To love 'em and leave 'em
And disappear right after the song
So give me the night
To show you, and hold you
Don't leave me out here dancin' alone

Can't make up your mind, mind, mind, mind, mind
Please don't waste my time, time, time, time, time
Not tryin' to rewind, wind, wind, wind, wind, wind
I wish our hearts could come together as one

Shawty yeah is an eenie meenie miney mo lover'
Shawty is an eenie meenie miney mo lover'
Shawty is an eenie meenie miney mo lover'

If she holla (if, if, if she holla) let her go
Eenie meenie miney moe
Catch a bad chick by her toe
If she holla (la la la la) let, let her

Shawty is an eenie meenie miney mo lover'

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Eenie Meenie by Sean Kingston and Justin Bieber tell the story of a female character who is constantly searching for the "right" guy but can never seem to make up her mind. She is indecisive and constantly looking from side to side, unable to settle on any one person. However, the singer of the song is convinced that he is the one for her and urges her to look into his eyes and give him a chance.


The chorus is a playful children's rhyme, "eenie meenie miney mo", that is used to portray the idea of the girl being caught up in a game of love, unable to choose between her options. The repeated lines, "shawty is an eenie meenie miney mo lover", drive home the message that the girl is fickle and can't make up her mind.


Overall, the song is a plea for the girl to choose the singer and give him a chance to show her what she's been missing. It's a catchy, upbeat song that captures the fun, carefree nature of young love.
