Lyrics
Light up yo eye
Expression urging someone to pay attention or be alert
Soon as I bet
Immediately after making a bet
Buffalo nickel tied around yo neck
Having a Buffalo nickel as a necklace
Get you on in
Helping someone get inside or involved quickly
Getcha' real quick
Quickly or rapidly acquire something
This ain't my only little Indian trick
Having other skills or abilities besides the current one being shown
Boys burn the church
Boys set fire to the church
With the pulpet
Destroying the pulpit within the church
Indian sleep with one eye open
Being vigilant or cautious, alert even while sleeping
You hear them hound dogs hollerin' at yo door
Hearing dogs loudly barking at your doorstep
Go to sleep with a ribbon on your toe
Going to sleep with a ribbon tied around your toe
I said – don't you fuck with my girl
Warning not to interfere or mess with the speaker's romantic partner
Murder on my mind if you fuckin' with my girl
Intense thoughts of violence if someone interferes with the speaker's partner
So don't you don't you fuck with my girl
Reiteration of the warning not to mess with the speaker's partner
Said murder on my mind if you, fuckin' with my
Continued thoughts of extreme violence if someone messes with the speaker's partner
Walker real bad, feather in hat
Describing someone with a harsh demeanor and a feather in their hat
Don't wanna wake with no knife in yo back
Fearing waking up with a knife stabbed in one's back
Gonna get you, by any means
Willing to achieve a goal by any necessary method
Blood trickle down your rosary beads
Symbolic imagery of blood dripping on religious beads
Takin' my woman curse your soul
Cursing someone's soul for taking the speaker's woman
When the spirit leave the body so cold
When the spirit leaves the body, leaving it cold
You hear them hound dogs hollerin' at yo door?
Reiteration of dogs loudly barking at the door
Go to sleep with a ribbon on yo' toe
Repeating the act of sleeping with a ribbon on the toe
I said – don't you fuck with my girl
Reasserting the warning not to interfere with the speaker's partner
Murder on my mind if you fuckin' with my girl
Reiteration of violent thoughts if someone interferes with the speaker's partner
So don't you don't you fuck with my girl
Reiteration of the warning not to mess with the speaker's partner
I got murder on my mind if you, fuckin' with my - oh
Continued thoughts of extreme violence if someone messes with the speaker's partner
Oh, yeah, yeah, Lets Go!
Expression of readiness or enthusiasm to proceed
Oh, Yeah
Exclamation indicating agreement or encouragement
Come on
Encouragement to move forward or take action
Got murder on my mind if you fuckin' with my girl
Reiteration of violent thoughts if someone interferes with the speaker's partner
So don't you, don't you fuck with my girl
Reiteration of the warning not to mess with the speaker's partner
I got murder on my mind if you, fuckin' with my girl
Continued thoughts of extreme violence if someone messes with the speaker's partner
So don't you, don't you, fuck with my
Reiteration of the warning not to mess with the speaker's partner
