Gettin’ Gone Lyrics
[Verse: ERNEST]
Old bird dog, sittin’ on a log
Talkin’ ’bout the evening news
Mississippi mud cat
Swimming down a riverbank
Singin’ himself the blues
Sayin’, “I’m gettin’ gone”
Ah, do you wanna go too?
Yes, I do
And now I’m down in the bayou
Next thing I knew
I’m hotter than a saxophone
Met a little gypsy, gettin’ half tipsy
Asked me if I wanna get stoned
She said “I’m gettin’ gone”
“Hm, where we goin baby?”
Ooh, do you wanna go too?
I think I do
[Chorus: ERNEST]
Oopsy Daisy, goin’ half crazy
Whatcha’ say, baby, ’bout a little rendezvous?
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Oh, and it won’t be long ’til they’re singin’ that song
‘Bout gettin’ half gone
Hey, baby, do you wanna go too?
Aw, tell ’em Snoop
[Verse 2: Snoop Dogg, ERNEST, & Both]
Hm, plate full of chicken
Mama’s in the kitchen
Talkin’ on the telephone
Kids outside, while slidin’ on the slide
And daddy said, “Leave me alone”
He said, “I’m gettin’ gone” (He gone)
Shit
And do you wanna go too?
Oh, yes I do
Mmm
Jukebox playin’
Church folks is prayin’
Jesus take my soul (Take my soul)
I met a little cutie
Said her name was Judy
She asked me if I wanted to roll
I said “I’m gettin’ gone” (Oh we gone)
Shit
Do you wanna go too?
Huh, yes I do
[Chorus: ERNEST & Snoop Dogg]
Oopsy Daisy, goin’ half crazy
Whatcha’ say, baby, ’bout a little rendezvous? (Rendezvous)
Yeah, and it won’t be long ’til they’re singin’ that song
‘Bout gettin’ half gone
Hey, baby, do you wanna go too?
Aw, I think I do
Listen
[Bridge: ERNEST, Snoop Dogg, & Both]
Oh, I met myself a little voodoo queen
Probably should’ve just gone home
Now we’re dancing ’round the fire
And screaming at the sky
She’s got me chewing on a black cat bone
Next thing you know she pulled out a toad
And said, “Take some venom from this frog”
Then I saw God and came back to life
Now I’m back with the dog on the log
Buddy, we’ve been gone
Shit
Mmm, do you wanna go too?
Oh, yes, I do
[Chorus: ERNEST]
Oopsy Daisy, goin’ half crazy
Whatcha’ say, baby, ’bout a little rendezvous?
Hey, and it won’t be long ’til we’re singin’ that song
‘Bout gettin’ half gone
Hey, baby, do you wanna go too?
Do you wanna go too?
Yeah, do you wanna go too?
And smoke one with Snoop?
Said, “Yes, I do”
Aw, do you wanna go too?
Yeah, do you wanna go?
Gettin’ Gone Lyrics Meaning
[Verse: ERNEST]
ERNEST opens the song with rustic imagery that grounds the track in a Southern setting. From the bird dog on a log to Mississippi riverbanks, the verse captures a lazy, sultry afternoon filled with bluesy vibes and whimsical interactions. The phrase “I’m gettin’ gone” becomes a refrain that signals his desire to escape from the mundane into something wilder and freer. His encounter with a gypsy adds a mystical, unpredictable layer, blending romance, spontaneity, and intoxication, setting the tone for the offbeat, adventurous spirit of the song.
[Chorus: ERNEST]
In the chorus, ERNEST continues to play with the theme of whimsical rebellion and flirtation. “Oopsy Daisy, goin’ half crazy” reflects a carefree, slightly reckless mood, suggesting a desire to break away from normalcy. The invitation to a rendezvous furthers the motif of unexpected adventures, underlined by the playful vocal delivery and the cyclical nature of the song’s hook—looping listeners into the vibe of always being just a moment away from gettin’ gone.
[Verse 2: Snoop Dogg, ERNEST, & Both]
Snoop Dogg steps in with his signature laid-back flow, adding a West Coast twist to ERNEST’s Southern narrative. The imagery of family life, barbecue scenes, and rebellious cuties keeps the tone grounded yet vibrant. Snoop’s verse humorously mirrors ERNEST’s with familiar rhythms and lines, keeping the energy light while reinforcing the idea of escapism. His interaction with “Judy” and the playful repetition of “gettin’ gone” anchors his presence in the same universe ERNEST has built, merging their musical worlds seamlessly.
[Chorus: ERNEST & Snoop Dogg]
Now with Snoop harmonizing, the chorus gains an extra layer of charisma. The phrase “rendezvous” ties back into their mutual aim: detaching from daily life and slipping into something dreamlike, unpredictable, and fun. Together, they reinforce the free-spiritedness of the journey and highlight the camaraderie between their musical perspectives.
[Bridge: ERNEST, Snoop Dogg, & Both]
The bridge descends into full-blown surrealism. ERNEST describes meeting a voodoo queen and embarking on a spiritual, drug-fueled trip around a fire—chewing a black cat bone and seeing visions. It’s a wild metaphor for losing oneself entirely in experience, whether through substances, passion, or adventure. The return “back with the dog on the log” brings the story full circle, suggesting that even the most far-out trips often lead right back to familiar ground, albeit with a new perspective.
[Chorus: ERNEST]
The final chorus reprises the playful, almost comical invitation to “get gone,” tying up the track with a cheeky reference to smoking with Snoop. ERNEST’s final call—“do you wanna go too?”—feels less like a question and more like an irresistible dare, inviting the listener to join in on the ride.
