It has been ten years since T-Pain first released his single “Buy U A Drank”. The beloved classic has since become a staple in the hip-hop community – even if we did all have the lyrics wrong.

T-Pain recently took to Twitter to correct a common misconception about the lyrics to “Buy U A Drank”: “It’s “and then” not “ooh wee” but really it’s whatever you want it to be just enjoy the song however you hear it. I just appreciate you listening. #BuyUADrank #THANX”.

It’s “and then” not “ooh wee” but really it’s whatever you want it to be just enjoy the song however you hear it. I just appreciate you listening. #BuyUADrank #THANX

The rapper also added that a second lyric of his was also often misheard. “I don’t wanna throw another wrench in your childhood but also it’s “Everybody hands go UP……… and they stay there……. AND THEY SAY YEAH” sorry #AlliDoIsWin I’m from #Tallahassee bro. That’s just how some of us talk.”
