Take a sip of this, drink that, and don't it feel good, baby? (Ooh-ooh-ooh-woah)

Take a sip of this, drink that (oh-oh-oh)

Ayy girl, how you doin'?
Can I get a minute of your time to spit a line or two? (say, girl)
I know you ain't feelin' me
I promise that you take a sip of this, you gon' be right here hearin' me
You givin' me (a reason to come back to the club)
And I'm feelin' like you feelin' like showin' me love
And I'm here to get your rhythm right
(Girl, go and gather your crew 'cause me and my niggas make it do what it do)
And I see it in your eyes, baby (and I)

This what you do
(Go and gather your crew 'cause me and my niggas make it do what it do)

Now, baby girl, I ain't tryin' to get you drunk, I'm just tryin' to get you (tipsy enough)
And I know that you wouldn't do what you do unless you get (tipsy enough)
In order for me to get you home in the back of my Brome, I need you (tipsy enough)
I know that you wouldn't be the freak that you are unless you're (tipsy enough)

Ayy girl, tell me what's crackin'
I see you watchin', wonderin' if I'm a come and talk to you (say, girl)
I need for you to listen to me closely, girl
Me and you got a chemistry, so let's just keep it movin'
You're givin' me (a reason not to leave out this club)
And I'm feelin' like (after the light out, you gon' give me love)
And I'm here to change your perspective, baby
(Girl, go and gather your crew 'cause me and my niggas make it do what it do)
And I see it in your eyes, baby (and I)
Know I took you by surprise, baby (oh yeah)
Here's what you do
(Go and gather your crew 'cause me and my niggas make it do what it do)

Baby girl, I ain't tryin' to get you drunk, I'm just tryin' to get you (tipsy enough)

Overall Meaning

In T-Pain's song "Tipsy," he starts by urging someone to "take a sip of this, drink that" and asking "don't it feel good, baby?" He then talks to a girl he is interested in, trying to convince her to give him a chance. He tells her that if she takes a sip of what he's offering her, she'll be more open to him and the two can have a good time. He then repeats the chorus, again urging her to take a sip and asking if it feels good.


T-Pain's lyrics are somewhat suggestive and could be interpreted as him trying to get a girl drunk in order to take advantage of her. However, it's important to note that he does say "I ain't tryin' to get you drunk, I'm just tryin' to get you tipsy enough." While the line is still somewhat gray, it seems like he's asking the girl to let her guard down a little so that they can have a better time together.


Overall, the song can be seen as a playful and somewhat flirtatious invitation to have a good time at the club. T-Pain's use of repetition and catchy rhythms make "Tipsy" a fun party track.
