Sean Paul Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Your grind?! Yeah yeah!
You're charged with possess in other people property
Yes, your honor
I'm guilty of "charged"
But you know what?!
Let me tell you a story, alright! Yo-yo-yo!

She wanna be down
With me everyday
And she no want nobody in her way
Say she don't want a clown
She do what I say
And I would never ever lead her a stray.
She wanna be down
With me everyday
And she no want nobody in her way
Say she don't want a clown
Today is going away
So your grind, it is the road that I play

That's why me go stop that
Cause the boy left the gal
Gone work pon the laptop
Talk about him have hot job
Soon get a promotion
Reach all the top notch
Me give her the broke back
Me give her the style
Make the neck get crock back
Broke up to the work shop
Mash up everything pon all the shelf and work-not.

And when she a beg stop
Still put it on cause dutty never yet flop
Me a tell her say guess what
We done know the bed
Make her move to the desktop
And all the little rest pot
Catch up her bed
Get ready for the next lap
Her leg them flex back
She want me to give
Her it straight and bless that.

She wanna be down
With me everyday
And she no want nobody in her way
Say she don't want a clown
She do what I say
And I would never ever lead her a stray.
She wanna be down
With me everyday
And she no want nobody in her way
Say she don't want a clown
Today is going away
So your grind, it is the road that I play

So we stay with the you La Lay
We no wrong none at all
We nuh line her day
Just gimme the gal them
Ready to want them
Gal them love me to sing we song them
Gal them call me to solve the problem
Gal them know so me nah go corn them
Nah go left them, that's the anthem
Shout it out from the highest mountain!
Woman a me life
Every man should sing this song to
But some don't know what them a do
Mislead in the girls bag of lu
Well baby it's alright!
I've been with you so many mood
So all rudebwoy just never lu
Never into, never had no crew that

She wanna be down
With me everyday
And she no want nobody in her way
Say she don't want a clown
She do what I say
And I would never ever lead her a stray.
She wanna be down
With me everyday
And she no want nobody in her way
Say she don't want a clown
Today is going away
So your grind, it is the road that I play

She know it
I flow with the way she really want it
She make about mine
Just to get my attention
So she just have flown it
She want me yawnin'
That's why she'll be up morning
Stinking about what she can do to satisfy your yearning
She keep it burning like a flame
And so eternal do the same
Stirring the pant
And keeping it up to you
Girl that's my game
And Mr. P man, it's my name
Give it to the gal them
Make them fly up high like a plane
Could I, I obtain?

He wanna be down
With me everyday
And she no want nobody in her way
Say she don't want a clown
She do what I say
And I would never ever lead her a stray.
She wanna be down
With me everyday
And she no want nobody in her way
Say she don't want a clown
Today is going away




So your grind, it is the road that I play
(So your grind, it is the road that I play)

Overall Meaning

In the first verse of Sean Paul's "She Wanna Be Down," he tells the story of being charged with possessing someone else's property. He is guilty but wants to tell a story anyway. The story is about a girl who wants to be with him all the time and demands no one gets in her way. She doesn't want a clown and follows his lead, trusting Sean Paul never to lead her astray. He sings about their relationship and his sexual prowess when he says, "Me give her the broke back, Me give her the style / make the neck get crockback / Broke up to the workshop / Mash up everything pon all the shelf and work-not." Despite their intense relationship, he reminds the listeners that he only plays the "road" that is his grind.


The rest of the song is peppered with patois and sexual innuendos that make little sense in typical English. In essence, the song is about a girl who likes Sean Paul, and despite his other obligations, she is the one he wants. He wants everyone to know that women are his life, and he sings about giving them pleasure, satisfaction, and attention. He plays his "road," which is his music, his job, and his life, and she is welcome to come along.
