[English]

What up, Nelly?

You ready to do another one, bruh?

Talk to 'em (uh, uh, uh, uh), haha

Yeah, runnin' all red lights

Pull up to the club, just to get, to get ahead, right

I do this shit er'ry night

You can call it limelight, I'ma call it my life

Shawty lookin' alright

TK jeans on, skin-skin-skintight

She be shakin' that taillight

Got me froze in the road like a deer in the headlights (uh, uh, yeah)

Oh, Backwoods, wanna know if you can roll

Got Cîroc on the rocks, ice-cold

Got the coupe on the new town road

Real low, oh

I know we just met, but, girl, let's roll

Let's roll, whoa, let's roll, let's roll

I'll go anywhere you wanna go

Let's go, oh

And she said, "Take me to the country, show me where you from"

I said, "Shawty, you gon' love me and we gon' have some fun"

I'll break out my big wheel and you can climb on up

Girl, I think you a big deal, now show your boy some love

Huh, just a lil' bit

Just a lil' bit (uh)

Just a lil' bit (yeah)

Just a lil' bit (uh)

We gon' have some fun

Just a lil' bit (uh)

Just a lil' bit (yeah)

Just a lil' bit

Yeah, we gon' have some-

Shawty messin' with a pro now (woo)

I'm a pro now

I'm the who, what, when, where to go now

Shows sold out

From the front to the back, hip-hop or the hoedown

Got the game on the go route

I'm the black Tom Brady in this, I'm the G.O.A.T. now (haha)

Shawty, I'm so wow

Orleans out to SoCal

Better know now

I know we just met, but, girl, let's roll

Let's roll, whoa, let's roll, let's roll

I'll go anywhere you wanna go

Let's go, oh (ayy, ayy, ayy)

And she said, "Take me to the country, show me where you from" (let's ride)

I said, "Shawty, you gon' love me and we gon' have some fun"

I'll break out my big wheel and you can climb on up

Girl, I think you a big deal, now show your boy some love

Huh, just a lil' bit

Just a lil' bit (yeah, baby, uh)

Just a lil' bit (yeah)

Just a lil' bit (uh)

We gon' have some fun

Just a lil' bit (uh)

Just a lil' bit (yeah)

Just a lil' bit (haha, uh, yeah, yeah)

Oh, Backwoods, wanna know if you can roll

Got Cîroc on the rocks, ice-cold

Got the coupe on the new town road (uh, uh, uh)

Real low, oh

Oh, Backwoods, wanna know if you can roll (can she roll?)

Got Cîroc on the rocks, ice-cold

Got the coupe on the new town road

Real low, oh

And she said, "Take me to the country, show me where you from"

I said, "Shawty, you gon' love me and we gon' have some fun" (we back, man)

I'll break out my big wheel and you can climb on up

Girl, I think you a big deal, now show your boy some love

Huh, just a lil' bit (ayy, ayy)

Just a lil' bit (come on, ayy, ayy)
