Juju On That Beat
Lyrics:
[English]
Do that one dance baby
That, that one dance
Yeah, oh
You don't know how to do that?
Baby do it for your grandma
Come on, I'm old and I'm trying to learn it
Well yeah, do it
Oh my god, oh my god. Girl ain't that Zay and Zayion?
Yas
Don't both of 'em got a girlfriend?
Girl I don't care
I don't care girl, he still cute
Oh yes
Walked in this party
And these girls lookin' at me
Skinny jeans on and you know my hair nappy
Hey, hey, hey
Okay, okay
I want y'all do it, do this dance now
JuJu on the beat
JuJu on that beat
JuJu on that, JuJu on that, JuJu on that beat
Now slide, drop
Hit dem folks, don't stop, aye
Don't stop, aye
Don't stop, aye
Running man on that beat, aye
Running man on that beat, aye
Running man on that beat, aye
Running man on that beat
Now do your dance, do your dance, do your dance, aye
You ugly
You your daddy's son
Aye, aye
Do your dance, aye
Go crazy, aye
Get freaky, aye
Let's go, leggo, leggo, leggo, leggo
Hey, hey, hey
Yea
Okay we knuckin' and buckin'
And ready to fight
I got my cousin, he with me
And got Lil Zay on the right
And I'm a Detroit baby
And I don't know nothing else
Besides drinking and having parties
And having some fun
I say look in the mirror
What you expect me to do?
I see a 300-S
And got them blacked out rims
I mean I like your style
I'm on a whole 'nother level
If you compare me and you
There wouldn't be no comparings
JuJu on the beat
JuJu on that beat
JuJu on that, JuJu on that, JuJu on that beat
Now slide, drop
Hit dem folks, don't stop, aye
Don't stop, aye
Don't stop, aye
Running man on that beat, aye
Running man on that beat, aye
Running man on that beat, aye
Running man on that beat
Now do your dance, do your dance, do your dance, aye
You ugly
You your daddy's son

Grammar:
-
Girl ain't that Zay and Zayion?
➔ Informal contraction and question formation
➔ The line uses the informal contraction "ain't" for "is not". Also, it forms a question using simple intonation, rather than inverting the subject and verb. ""Ain't"" is non-standard English and suggests an informal dialect.
-
Don't both of 'em got a girlfriend?
➔ Double negative (informal), question formation
➔ This line uses the informal contraction "Don't" instead of "Do...not" and also uses "got" to indicate possession. The intended meaning is "Do they both have a girlfriend?". The phrase "of 'em" is a shortened form of "of them".
-
Walked in this party and these girls lookin' at me
➔ Past tense (irregular verb) and present participle (informal)
➔ "Walked" is the past tense of "walk" (regular verb). "Lookin'" is an informal shortening of "looking", using the present participle form of "look".
-
I want y'all do it, do this dance now
➔ Pronoun contraction ("y'all"), imperative
➔ "Y'all" is a contraction of "you all," commonly used in some dialects of American English. "Do it, do this dance now" is an imperative, commanding someone to perform the action.
-
I got my cousin, he with me
➔ Omission of verb "is" (copula)
➔ The line omits the verb "is" from the phrase "he is with me". This is common in some informal dialects. The correct formal sentence would be: "I got my cousin, he *is* with me."
-
And I'm a Detroit baby and I don't know nothing else
➔ Double negative (non-standard)
➔ The line uses "don't know nothing else", which is a double negative. In standard English, it should be "don't know anything else" or "know nothing else". Double negatives are a feature of some dialects, though considered non-standard in formal English.
