Critical Reception[]
Upon its release, PAPER Magazine praised the cover, stating, "though she keeps most of it the same, in true Slayyyter fashion, there are cheeky, little nods to her own lyrical stylings scattered throughout the cover — not to mention a glossy, updated backbeat in the chorus". They also called it a "contemporary classic".[2]

[Intro: Nelly]
Mmm
Where they at? Where they at?
Where they at? Where they at?
Where they at? Where they at?
Where they at? Come on, now
[Chorus: Slayyyter & Nelly]
If you want to go and take a ride with me
We 3-wheelin' in the four with the gold D's
Oh, why do I live this way?
(Hey, must be the money!)
If you want to go and get high with me
Smoke an L in the back of the Benz-E
Oh, why must I feel this way?
(Hey, must be the money!)
[Verse: Slayyyter]
In the club on the late night, feeling right
Lookin', tryin' to spot some real nice
Lookin' for a little shorty I noticed so that I can take home
(I can take home)
Since I was 18, I had an attitude
19, I was snotty, actin' real rude
But I always been the freaky little whore from the 314
I peep summin' comin' towards me on the dance floor
Sexy and real slow (hey)
Saying she was peeping and I dig the last video
"So Slayyyter, can we go?" How could I tell her no?
Her measurements were 36-25-34
I like the way you brush your hair
I like those stylish clothes you wear
I like the way the light hit the ice and glare
And I can see you movin' from way over there (yeah)
[Chorus: Slayyyter & Nelly]
If you want to go and take a ride with me
We 3-wheelin' in the four with the gold D's
Oh, why do I live this way?
(Hey, must be the money!)
If you want to go and get high with me
Smoke an L in the back of the Benz-E
Oh, why must I feel this way?
(Hey, must be the money!)
If you want to go and take a ride with me
We 3-wheelin' in the four with the gold D's
Oh, why do I live this way?
(Hey, must be the money!)
If you want to go and get high with me
Smoke an L in the back of the Benz-E
Oh, why must I feel this way?
(Hey, must be the money!)
[Bridge: Slayyyter]
I know somethin' you don't know
And I've got somethin' to tell ya
You won't believe how many people straight doubted the flow
Most said that I was a failure
But now the same bitches askin' me for dough
And I'm yellin', "I can't help ya"
"But Slayyyter can we get tickets to your next show?"
Hell no
[Chorus: Slayyyter & Nelly]
If you want to go and take a ride with me
We 3-wheelin' in the four with the gold D's
Oh, why do I live this way?
(Hey, must be the money!)
If you want to go and get high with me
Smoke an L in the back of the Benz-E
Oh, why must I feel this way?
(Hey, must be the money!)
