The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.
Can you blow my whistle baby, whistle baby
Let me know
Girl I'm gonna show you how to do it
And we start real slow
You just put your lips together
And you come real close
Can you blow my whistle baby, whistle baby
Here we go
Look, I'm bettin' you like people
And I'm bettin' you love freak mode
And I'm bettin' you like girls
That give love to girls and stroke your little ego
I bet you I'm guilty, your honor
That's just how we live in my genre
Who in the hell done paved the road wider?
There's only one Flo and one Rida
I'm a damn shame, order more champagne
Pull a damn hamstring tryna put it on ya
Let your lips spin back around calmer
Slow it down, baby, take a little longer
Can you blow my whistle baby, whistle baby
Let me know
Girl I'm gonna show you how to do it
And we start real slow
You just put your lips together
And you come real close
Can you blow my whistle baby, whistle baby
Here we go (hey)
Whistle baby, whistle baby (hey)
Whistle baby, whistle baby (hey)
Whistle baby, whistle baby (hey)
Whistle baby, whistle baby
It's like everywhere I go, my whistle ready to blow
Shawty don't even know, she can get any for the low
Told me she's not a pro, it's okay, it's under control
Show me soprano 'cause, girl, you can handle
Baby, we start slow then you come up and park close
Girl, I'm the whistle man, my Bugatti the same notes
Show me your perfect pitch, you got it, my banjo
Talented with your lip like you blew out a candle
So amusing (amusing)
Now you can make it whistle with the music (music)
Hope you ain't got no issues, you can do it (do it)
Even if it no picture, never lose it (lose it)
Can you blow my whistle baby, whistle baby
Let me know
Girl I'm gonna show you how to do it
And we start real slow
You just put your lips together
And you come real close
Can you blow my whistle baby, whistle baby
Here we go (hey)
Whistle baby, whistle baby (hey)
Whistle baby, whistle baby
Whistle baby, whistle baby
Whistle baby, whistle baby
Go on, girl, you can twerk it
Let me see you whistle while you work it
I'ma lay back, don't stop it
'Cause I love it how you drop it, drop it, drop it on me
Now, shorty, let that whistle blow, oh-oh-oh
Yeah, baby, make that whistle blow, oh-oh
Can you blow my whistle baby, whistle baby
Let me know
Girl I'm gonna show you how to do it
And we start real slow

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example:
"'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.
Head > Heels
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran
“Head > Heels” is a track that aims to capture what it feels like to experience romance that exceeds expectations. Ed Sheeran dedicates his album outro to a lover who has blessed him with a unique experience that he seeks to describe through the song’s nuanced lyrics.
okay, so i'm just saying it plain.....this song is about sex...oral...mainly a blow job
It is actually because he is a professional netball umpire. In the song he is teaching how to referee a netball game using a sports whistle. Nothing inappropriate with this song.
lol. strock ur little ego= stroke ur little clitoris
Basically "Hey girl, suck my dick. C'mon I'll show you how!"
Not exactly the most... appropriate song
the song is about his love for training netball.
its about a bj, that simple
In vernacular parlance, "whistle" refers to one's penis, and to "blow" said whistle means to perform oral sex. Flo Rida uses his knowledge of wordplay to skillfully render this inappropriate act as a auditory euphemism by literally whistling. Thus to the innocent or untrained ear the song is about whistling a tune, whereas to a more mature audience it is a celebration of oral sex.
All i can say is at least it isn't as bad as blurred lines! The song actually sounds alright and i am a fan of flo rida, but this song is so messoganistic that it feels as if it is the lyrical translation of a pitbull reference (this coming from a guy)
do we really need to explain it? If you are older than 12 you know what this means-Go girl you can work it Let me see your whistle while you work it I'ma lay it back, don't stop it Cause I love it how you drop it, drop it, drop it, on me Now, shorty let that whistle blow Yeah, baby let that whistle blow
Where do I begin, I believe this song isn't talking about sex, or blow jobs.. I believe its talking about rolling a bowl, and for those of y'all who don't know what that means, then you need to read over this comment and ask someone else.I just wanted to put my two cents in, because all of you people are clearly brain dead about whats going on in the community around you. Have a good day. Brought to you by TTU.( TweakerTechUniversity)
@MoneyMade69 who the fuck "rolls a bowl" you ignorant fuck its pack a bowl
