On The Hunt
Chasing Desires: Unveiling the Allure in Corrosion of Conformity's 'On The Hunt'
Lyrics
I said baby mama, I don't know your name
Expressing ignorance about the woman's name
But I said baby, sugar I can play your game
Indicating a willingness to engage in the woman's game
Every night when we leave the hall
Referencing leaving a venue or performance
I see you hanging around
Observing the woman's presence after the show
You want to ride in my big black car baby
Describing a desire for the woman to join in a luxurious car ride
Want to go uptown
Expressing a desire to go to an upscale area with the woman
I know who you are baby
Acknowledging awareness of the woman's identity
I know what they call you girl
Recognizing a common nickname or label for the woman
Never put you down baby
Asserting a non-judgmental attitude towards the woman
I'm just like you baby, I'm on the hunt
Aligning oneself with the woman's pursuit or lifestyle
I know lady
Affirming knowledge of the woman's existence
People gonna talk about you and me
Acknowledging potential gossip or rumors about their relationship
Let me say one thing mama, sugar I do as I please
Asserting personal freedom and independence
And if you want to love me baby, I'm your man
Expressing readiness to be the woman's romantic partner
And all those high-falutin' society people
Disregarding the opinions of high-society individuals
I don't care if they don't understand
Emphasizing a lack of concern for societal judgment
I know who you are baby
Reiterating awareness of the woman's identity
I know what they call you girl
Reaffirming familiarity with the woman's nickname or label
Never put you down baby
Reassuring the woman of non-judgmental acceptance
I'm just like you baby, I'm on the hunt
Reiterating alignment with the woman's pursuit or lifestyle
My daddy told me a long time ago
Recalling advice from the speaker's father
Said there's two things son
Stating the importance of two things in life
Two things you should know
Enumerating the two important aspects: a horse and a woman
And in these two things you must take pride
Encouraging pride in the mentioned aspects
That's a horse and woman, yeah
Highlighting the significance of riding both a horse and a woman
Well both of them you ride
Emphasizing the active participation in both experiences
