Song Meaning of Right Round by Flo Rida, and what it is about


One of the song's composers claims that the chorus alludes to a stripper. The song features guest vocals by Kesha. The chorus of the song samples You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) by Dead or Alive, hence Dead or Alive receives songwriting credit.


According to Flo Rida, the song is about "a young lady, she might be in the strip club and she's got my head spinning round, [...] Or any young lady that I might see walking past me that's getting my attention. She got it going on! I'm going crazy over her."


Because his seven sisters listened to a variety of musical styles, Flo Rida said he grew up listening to albums like "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)" and others. Finally, it was his A&R Aaron Bay-Schuck who had the brilliant idea to use "You Spin Me Round (Like A Record)" as a sample in a song.


The song's co-writer, Bruno Mars, revealed that oral sex was intended by the chorus in an interview with Entertainment Weekly. As a co-writer, Philip Lawrence acknowledged that the song was "almost something we had accidentally written in the car one night just hanging out."


Song lyrics of Right Round by Flo Rida


You spin my head right round, right round

When you go down, when you go down down

You spin my head right round, right round

When you go down, when you go down down

Hey, walk out that house with my swagger

Hop in there with dough, I got places to go!

People to see, time is precious

I looked at my cotty, are ya out of control?

Just like my mind where I'm goin'

No women, no shawties, no nothin' but clothes

No stoppin' now, my Pirellis on roll

I like my jewelry that's always on whoa

I know the storm is comin'

My pockets keep tellin' me it's gonna shower

Call up my homies, it's on

Then pop in the next 'cause this mix'll be ours

We keep a fade-away shot

'Cause we ballin' it's Platinum Patron that be ours

Lil mama, I owe you just like the flowers

Girl, you the drink with all that goodie powers

You spin my head right round, right round

When you go down, when you go down down

You spin my head right round, right round

When you go down, when you go down down

From the top of the pole I watch her go down

She got me throwin' my money around

Ain't nothin' more beautiful to be found

It's goin' down down

From the top of the pole I watch her go down

She got me throwin' my money around

Ain't nothin' more beautiful to be found

It's goin' down down

Hey, shawty must know I'm the man

My money love her like her number one fan

Don't open my mouth, let her talk to my fans

My Benjamin Franklins

A couple of grands, I got rubber bands

My paper planes makin' her dance

Get dirty all night, that's part of my plan

We buildin' castles that's made out of sand

She's amazin', fire blazin'

Hotter than Cajun, girl won't you move a lil' closer?

Time to get paid, it's maximum wage

That body belong on a poster

I'm in a daze, that bottom is wavin' at me

Like, "Damn it, I know you"

You wanna shoot like a gun out of holster

Tell me whatever and I'll be your gopher

You spin my head right round, right round

When you go down, when you go down down

You spin my head right round, right round

When you go down, when you go down down

From the top of the pole I watch her go down

She got me throwin' my money around

Ain't nothin' more beautiful to be found

It's goin' down down

From the top of the pole I watch her go down

She got me throwin' my money around

Ain't nothin' more beautiful to be found

It's goin' down down

Yeah, I'm spendin' my money (ah), I'm out of control (ah)

Somebody help me she takin' my bank roll

But I'm king of the club (ah) and I'm wearin' the crown

Poppin' these bottles, touchin' these models

Watchin' they asses go down down

You spin my head right round, right round

When you go down, when you go down down

You spin my head right round, right round

When you go down, when you go down down (ah)

You spin my head right round, right round (ah)

When you go down, when you go down down (ah)

You spin my head right round, right round (ah)

When you go down, when you go down down
