Tambourine Lyrics

Shake your tambourine go and get yourself a whistle and...
Shake your tambourine go and get yourself a whistle and...
Shake your tambourine go and get yourself a whistle and...
Shake your tambourine go and get yourself a whistle and...

Eve e E come through in da Mazarati,
doin it big like I live in the Taj Mahal.
talk shit and I don't get in the bla bla bla
That's why dey lovn, ahh
That's real when the chicks that dey talked about.
goddamn is da words dat come out dey mouth
she look good always, without a doubt
ask for her, she back 'n' cakin out

so they be watchn while we wiggle aroun
look at dem drouln, nggrs aint used to dis sound
i keep em movin, all ma ladies put ya hands in da air
it's all right now we gonna keep you on ya feet da whole night now

get low get low, then pick up pick up
get your hands in the air, it's a stick-up stick-up
shake your ... quicker, quicker
shake it down in town, get the picture, picture?
... on the floor, gotta love dat
keep it goin' on you know you love dat
shake it shake it to the floor you gotta love dat

Eve e E come through in da Mazarati,

That's why dey lovn, ahh

goddamn is da words dat come out dey mouth
she look good always, without a doubt
ask for her, she back 'n' cakin out

get ya ass on da dance floor

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This songis about nothing. seriously. supposedly there's a dance called the 'Tambourine" but that doesn't even make sense.the song isn't even about a tambourine, and besides the sample, it only mentions a tambourine ONCE.

I LOVE this song.

Geez.... why do some people always have to have a meaning for every single song? Can't artists just write about nothing?

yeah, I mean the song's great, but there NO substance whatsoever. it's pretty much a dance song and no one's really listening to the lyrics anyway. I mean, the sample and beat is the meat of the song, and if you'd taken Eve's vocals off it'd probably still have been a hit.

I'm just sayin'.
