    Andale, andale mami, e.i., e.i., uh-ohhhhh, where's
    papa tonight?

    Artist: Nelly
    Song: E.I.
    Real Lyric: Andale, andale mami, e.i., e.i., uh-ohhhhh, what's poppin' tonight?



    The story:

    I'm actually still not 100% sure I'm wrong (but I
    began to question whether I was hearing it right
    very early on; this isn't a case of "gotcha!").

    The lyrics sites on the Web give different
    translations for the "poppin'" line, so I **sume
    it's not a settled matter. Nevertheless, there's
    good reason to think that my version is off-base:

    "Papa" fits perfectly with the "mami" (mommy,
    mama) in the preceding phrase; it's only when you
    consider how (on the one hand) hilarious it is,
    and (on the other) degrading and insulting to
    black folks it is, that you begin to suspect that
    "uh-ohhhhh, where's papa tonight" is probably not
    what Nelly had in mind.
