"Got Your Money" Ol' Dirty Bastard f/ Kelis

[A Thug Named Slickback]

You know what: I don't even really like this song.  But that hook has rattled around my head for the eight years since this song came out. 

This was ODB's biggest hit as lead artist.  If I remember correctly, it was a Neptunes production.  I think the song got by on sheer humor, rather than actual quality.  The 1970s-styled video is funny and I do have to admit that some of the lyrics make me laugh.

I dedicate this to all the pretty girls
All the pretty girls
All the pretty girls, in the world
And the ugly girls too
Cause to me you're pretty anyway baby

Anyway, this was ODB's last hit before his death in 2004.
Hot 100: #33    R&B/Hip-Hop: #19

[Pet Shop Boy]

I love this song and video! Nothing to do with ODB really, although the blaxpoitation video was very funny. Kelis on the hook was just fantastic though, so very catchy!

#11 in the UK.

I loved this song! It's soooo funny!

The lyrics are soooo hilarious!

Ohhh baby
I dedicate this to all the pretty girls
All the pretty girls
Its on [echo]
All the pretty girls, in the world
And the ugly girls too
Cause to me your pretty anyways baby

[verse 1:]

You give me your number, I call you up
You act like ur pussy dont interrupt
I don't have no problem with you fucking me
But I have a little problem wit you not fucking me
Baby you know ima take care of you
Cause you say you got my baby, and I know it ain't true
Is it a good thing? no its bad bitch
For good or worse, makes you switch
So I walk on over with my crystal
Bitches, ***I'M RACIST***z put away your pistols
Dirty wont be having it in this house
Cause bitch I'll cripple your style
Now that you heard my calm voice
You couldn't get another ***I'M RACIST***, hoochie wont get moist
If you wana look good and not be bummy, girl you better give me that money
Aooow...

[hook: Kelis]

Hey, dirty, baby I got your money
Don't your worry, I said hey.
Baby I got your money
[X2]

[verse 2:]

Yo! so I glanced at the girls, girls glanced at me
I whispered in their ear, wana be with me?
You wana look pretty though, in my video
Ol' dirty on the hat and I let you all know
Just dance! if you caught up in the holy ghost trance
If you stop! ima put the killer ants in your pants
I'm the O-D-B as you can see
Every eye, don't you be watching me
I don't want no problems cause I put you down
In the ground where you can not be found
I'm just dirt dog trying to make sum bunny
So give me my streaks and give me my honey
Radio, yes all day, everyday
Recognize I'm a fool and ya luuuuuuuuuuv me!
None of you nmph better look at me funny
Nmph you know my name now give me my money!

[hook X2]
Dirty: sing it, sing it girls! (during hook)
Just shake it right now!
Somebody else: if dirty want his money
I think ya'll should give him his money
Dirty: that's how I like giiiiiiiirlllll

Sexy, sexy, sexy!
Sexy, sexy, sexy!

Sexy, sexy, sexy!
Sexy, sexy, sexy!

[verse 3:]

Yo, yo!
***I'M RACIST*** playing in the club like this all night
Bitches put your ass out let me hold it tight
You looking at my wrist saying "its so nice"
The price bitch is diamonds shining disco light
You better help me solve this problem
Or ima get this money and rob them
Lucky dig when I won the lotto
Ran up on my car for carrying (ryllos?)
You can call me dirty, and then lift up your skirt
And you want some of this dirty, god made dirt and dirt bust yo ass
Stop annoying me, yeah! I play my music loud
It takes the bastard ol' dirty, to move the crowd
They say he had his dick in his mouth
Eddie Murphy told me that back in the house
But give me my money!

OMG, I loved this one, the video was hilarious! I've found a brilliant mash-up online (the 'Dre Skull Remix'), with ODB rhyming over the "Louie, Louie" instrumental.

[WotUNeed]

This is a great song.

[oscillations.]

I loved it.

[dth1971]

Missed the Top 40 on R&R CHR/Pop.

[B-Boy]

I love this song. When I first heard this, it sounded like some old school hip hop track. And Kelis' hook was the best thing about the song at the time. Now the more I listen to ODB's verses the more hilarious I find them to be.

The video was quite hilarious too. Some of the clips from Dolemite were mixed in with ODB's "Shimmy Shimmy Ya" video.

[sdot23]

Kelis is awesome on this track! I literally remember every word in this song.

[blue in moonlight]

This is my favorite ODB track.

It's funny, I remember hearing this way back when it was out and liking it a lot. Then I never heard it again until last year. Love it

[Sir Benji]

lmao I've always loved this one. "SING IT GIRLS! JUST SING IT RIGHT NOW!"

[Live Your Life]

Jam.
