Got me wantin' to give it to you all night

Lookin' in your eyes while you on the other side

Overall Meaning

The opening lyrics frame the song as a love letter to women, but with a commitment from Usher to maintain his authenticity and not fall into a cliché trap in his delivery. The references to keeping it “hood” and directing the question of “where we at” are nods to the core of Usher’s musical identity. The lyrics evolving into a pickup line, as Usher offers to “do you right” while asking his female target what she’s sipping on, is a classic R&B trope, but his promise to keep the drinks coming “all night long” is a throwback to Lionel Richie’s “All Night Long”. The first verse sets the stage for the rest of the song, as Usher pursues a woman he is attracted to and attempts to convince her to consummate their relationship in the club.


The chorus is simple and repetitive, which is characteristic of many club anthems, and is a clear articulation of Usher’s desires. The second verse shifts slightly but stays on theme, with Usher attempting to convince his lady that she should let her friends go home with his friends so that they can pursue their connection. He reinforces the idea that he is thinking of her constantly, and that his desire to have sex with her is all-consuming. The bridge foregrounds Lil Wayne’s presence, as he offers a more explicit and aggressive come-on than Usher’s, with references to their sexual activities taking place not just in the club, but potentially in public spaces like a grocery store. Wayne’s presence is also noteworthy because of his fan base, which reaches beyond R&B and hip hop lovers to include a more mainstream pop audience.

LYRICS
I'm the king, y'all know that
She the queen, came right back
Yea yea
Now baby girl there ain't nothin' more that I can say
You know by now I want it more than anything
If I walk away and just let you leave
You'll be stuck in my head like a melody
I know you want it (yea)
I'm hesitating (why?)
You must be crazy
I got a man, you got a lady
I know we here together
So this must be something special
'Cause, you could be anywhere you wanted
But you decided to be here with me
No coincidence it was meant to be
Don't be shy gon' let ya boy get in
So you can tell all of your friends you was on the remix like
In this club
In this club
(Ladies can I put this love up on you one time if you ain't scared, say what's up)

This right here is only for your eyes to see
But you getting carried away saying we can do it wherever
The way you touching me (hey)
Like no other
I'm a make you feel insane
You're trying your hardest to make me give in
But I'm a be down to give you what you wantin' if you keep it up
I strongly doubt this velvet rope would hold me up
And I don't want security rollin' up on us (I got ya)
I'm not hesitating I just don't wanna rush
'Cause, you could be anywhere you wanted
But you decided to be here with me
No coincidence it was meant to be
I guess if I mess around and let you get in
You gon' tell all of your friends you was on this remix like
In this club

Shawty want a thug, it started with a hug
And the rest went like this

I said we could do it like a stack
I mean we could do it like a G
On the couch in V.I.P
Shawty we can get it on
I'm like shout out to the DJ
For playin' this song
Girl, we could act like two damn fools
Have everybody think we doin' a dance move
Call me, so I can make it juicy for ya
Meet me in the bathroom and you could be my secret lover girl
And it started with a hug but now we makin' love in this club
And we not gonna stop just because
The people in the crowd are watching us
'Cause we don't give a damn what they say, this is
Th-the remix baby!
Come a little closer let daddy put it on ya
Need you to know, what happens here stays here
Well I'm, ready and willing
Mamas got to go
But your standing at attention
Keep it on the low
Ain't nobody watching
Don't worry they can't see us
