99 Pounds
Soulful Essence: Unveiling the Meaning Behind '99 Pounds'
Lyrics
She's 25 lbs. of pure cane sugar
Describing the woman as 25 lbs. of pure sweetness
In each and every kiss
Highlighting the sweetness in each kiss from the woman
You wouldn't know what I'm talking about
Suggesting that one wouldn't understand the experience without such love
If you never had lovin' like this
Emphasizing the unique and exceptional nature of the love received
I don't mean to be bragging
Downplaying, but acknowledging the exceptional qualities of the relationship
But I tell y'all it's a natural fact
Asserting that the exceptional nature of the relationship is a fact
Good things come in small packages
Expressing that good things come in small sizes
You'll have to agree to that
Inviting agreement with the notion that good things come in small packages
She's 99 lbs. of natural born goodness
Describing the woman as 99 lbs. of inherent goodness
99 lbs. of soul
Reiterating that she possesses 99 lbs. of soul
She's 99 lbs. of natural goodness
Repeating the description of the woman's natural goodness
99 lbs. of soul
Reiterating that she has 99 lbs. of soul
She's 25 lbs. of tenderness in each and every touch
Highlighting the tender and understanding aspects of the woman
25 lbs. of understanding your man
Emphasizing her ability to comprehend and support her partner
And I don't want me to worry too much
Expressing a lack of concern or worry due to the woman's qualities
24 lbs of something else that I can't give a name
Mentioning an undefined quality (24 lbs.) contributing to the total
And it all adds up to 99 lbs
Summing up the various qualities to reach a total of 99 lbs.
All put together in a fine brown frame
Describing the woman as a complete and attractive package
She's 99 lbs. of natural born goodness
Repeating the description of the woman's inherent goodness
99 lbs. of soul
Reiterating that she possesses 99 lbs. of soul
She's 99 lbs. of natural goodness
Repeating the description of the woman's natural goodness
99 lbs. of soul
Reiterating that she has 99 lbs. of soul
And I'm 99 lbs of natural born goodness
Claiming that the speaker also embodies 99 lbs. of inherent goodness
99 lbs of soul
Affirming that the speaker also possesses 99 lbs. of soul
Let me tell you now
Expressing a desire to convey this information
I'm 99 lbs of natural born goodness
Reiterating the speaker's inherent goodness
