E.I. Lyrics

Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh
Uh, wait a minute now
Uh-oh
Uh, uh
Can y'all hear me out there? (Lunatics)
Uh, uh, is y'all ready? (Up above) let me year you, uh
Uh-oh

I'm a sucker for cornrows and manicured toes (hey)
Fendi capri pants and Parasucos (alright)
The rise of Diddy and City, with one or two throws
I'm dropping 'em outta high school, straight into the pros
Who knows? I know and I love it when you make your knees touch your elbows
And break it down low to the floor, and there you go
Now throw it on me slow
And every time I bust a rhyme, baby, "Gimme Some More" (oh)
You say you like that when I hit it from behind
And I'll be right back, yeah, that's my very next line
I use it time after time when I'm speaking my mind
It's no matter if I'm shooting game to a pigeon or dime
I ask you, "who that is, talking that shit about the 'Tics?"
Somebody probably jealous 'cause they bitch got hit
But ain't nobody else dropping shit like this
Should we apologize? Nah, fuck 'em, just leave 'em pissed, hey

Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
What's poppin' tonight?
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night

Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
What's poppin' tonight?
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night

We can gamble to the break of dawn, nigga
Money long, nigga
Pass up the skirt to talk to the thong, nigga
Some say I'm wrong, but fuck it I'm grown, nigga
And if you ain't 'bout money then best be gone, nigga
I'm flashy (uh) double takes when you walk past me
Nasty, don't be scared boo, go ahead and ask me
I drive fastly, call me Jeff Gordon
In a black SS with the navigation
See the joint blaze on, something smells amazing
I got a chick rolling up half black and Asian
Another one paging, telling me to come over
Her husband on vacation and left her home alone
I used the V-12 powers, weight loss powers
From Phat Farm to Iceberg Slim in one shower
Get a room in Trump Towers just to hit for three hours
Kick the bitch up out the room 'cause she used the word "ours," ayy

Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
What's poppin' tonight?
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night

Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
What's poppin' tonight?
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night

Ayo, I smash-mouth a whole ounce of that sticky
Watch my hands under a gold spout when feeling icky
Let go off in a hoe's mouth, I ain't picky
Start fronting when the show's out, what you mean?
Twenty inches when they roll out, come and get me
Big faces when they fold out, is you with me?
Don't make me pull that 4-4 out
I keep a close eye when the dough out
And then I slide off in an Esclade
Me and Ky' been solid like the Ice Capades
For me and he Frosty, Roger the Rabbit and Bugsy
You understand me? Wrapped wrist like mummies
If you compare me to your local grocery
Then you'll see I got more carats than Aldi
More bread than aisle G, you can bag and scan me
Sure like Al B., meet the 'Tics in Maui, hey

Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
What's poppin' tonight?
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night

Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
What's poppin' tonight?
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night

St. Louis y'all, uh, uh (uh-oh)
Uh, can you feel it?
Lunatics, y'all, uh, uh (uh-oh)
Uh, uh, up a-, up above, y'all, uh, uh (uh-oh)
Uh, uh, uh, Universal, y'all, uh, uh (uh-oh)
Uh, uh, chillin', chillin', chillin' with the culture

Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh (uh, uh, uh)
What's poppin' tonight? (J.E., y'all, uh, uh)
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night (uh)

Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh (Nelly, uh, uh)
What's poppin' tonight? (Uh)
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night

I'm from M-I (ándale, ándale, mami)
Crooked letter, crooked letter (E.I., E.I., uh-oh)
O-U-R-I, no one can do it better (what's poppin' tonight?)
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
If the head right, Nelly there every night
Ándale, ándale, mami, E.I., E.I., uh-oh
What's poppin' tonight?
