Lean
ilovememphis Lyrics

Lean and dab, lean and dab
Repeating the title phrase.

Wake up in the morning then I dab
I began my day with a dab dance move.

Had to pull up on the block 'cause today I get to whip
I drove my car in the neighborhood because I wanted to show it off.

And you know my top drop and my car's name is nae-nae
My convertible car's roof is down and it is called Nae Nae.

Had to hit the Quan 'cause today is a good day
I did the Quan dance move because I'm feeling happy today.

Slide to the left, slide to the right
I am doing a popular dance move by stepping sideways.

Walk it to the front, bop it to the back
I am dancing by walking forward and moving my body backward.

Nah, let me keep going
I want to continue rapping the song.

Show you how I lean, then dab
I am going to demonstrate how to lean first and then do the dab dance move.

Nice shoes, car clean 'cause it's sunny outside
My shoes look great, and my car is clean because it is sunny outside.

That mean I pull up with my top down
I drive my car with its roof down when it's sunny outside.

Mama told me never leave the house without my nightgown
My mother always told me to wear proper clothing when I step outside.

That's a lot to handle, how could he manage?
It would be difficult to handle my success and fame.

Mr. Hit the Quan went viral, gigantic
My previous song Hit the Quan became popular worldwide.

Always used to dodge cops, riding around with no plate tags
I used to drive without proper registration and avoid getting caught by the police.

But they can never catch me, driving like a taxi
The police can't catch me while driving because I'm skilled at evading them.

Waiting on my taxes, lights camera action
I'm waiting for my tax refund while being in the spotlight for my success.

Y'all not in my bracket
Others can't match my level of success.

It's iHeart Memphis but I also love dabbing
iHeart Memphis is my artist name, but I also love doing the dab dance move.

I done took off on 'em, I feel like a pilot
I'm flying high with my success and feel like a pilot.

I done took off on 'em, I don't care bout the mileage
I'm not worried about the miles on my car because it has brought me success.

I'm so VIP all I know is private
As a VIP, I'm used to privacy and exclusivity.

I'll take the steak, the shrimp, and the salad
I am now able to enjoy the luxury of eating expensive food like steak and shrimp with a salad.

'Cause growing up in Memphis, Tennessee I couldn't have it
Growing up in my hometown, I couldn't afford or access these luxuries.

Hit the Quan on 'em, hit the Quan on 'em
I'm doing the dance move called Hit the Quan repeatedly.

Snap 'em up, pose, snap 'em up, pose
I'm posing for pictures while snapping my fingers rhythmically.

Chop-a-chop chopped salad, chop-a-chop chop
I'm saying the words Chop-a-chop to the beat while talking about chopped salad.

You can google me, you can google me
My fame has grown to the point where people often search for me on Google.
