Hit That Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The winds of fortune don't blow the same
She had to get out and make a change
She had a kid now, but much too young
That baby daddy's out having fun


[Chorus 1]
He's sayin', "I'm on a roll with all the girls I know"
His baby momma, she ain't so slow
He's sayin', "I'm on a roll with all the girls I know"
I know you wanna hit that, I know you wanna hit that, hit that

[Post-Chorus]
All the world is gettin' with, I say
Consequences are a lot, but hey
That's the way it
That's the way things go, ay, ay, ay

[Verse 2]
What was a family, is now a shell
We're raising kids now who raise themselves
Sex is a weapon, it's like a drug
It gets him right into that grave that he just dug


[Chorus 2]
She's saying, "I'm on the run, I'm chasing guys for fun"
Her baby daddy, it ain't his only one

She's sayin', "I'm on the run, I'm chasing guys for fun"
I know you wanna hit that, I know you wanna hit that, hit that
[Post-Chorus]
Everybody's gettin' with, I say
Consequences are a lot, but hey
That's the way it
That's the way things go, ay, ay, ay

[Bridge]
Well it winds up, broken up, really such a shame
But why not take a chance, everything's a game
And it don't stop hooking up, nothing's gonna change
Well, the more he's trying, the more he's buying

[Chorus 3]
He says, "I'm on a roll with all the girls I know"
His baby momma don't need to know
He's sayin', "I'm on a roll with all the girls I know"
I know you wanna hit that, I know you wanna hit that, hit that

[Post-Chorus]
All the world is gettin' with, I say
Consequences are a lot, but hey
That's the way it
That's the way things go

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

The fourth track on Splinter, Hit That talks about a couple who have kids. However, the father abandons the family and parties with other women. Then, instead of being the better person, the mother does the same and goes after other men. The kids are left to fend for themselves.

This was (one of) The Offspring’s first songs to contain a synthesizer track.
