[Intro]
Rubber bands, rubber bands
Rubber bands - BONG, BONG, BONG
Bands!

[Chorus: repeat 2X]
Look at these rubber bands
Bouncing left and right, up and down
Call my band right now, let 'em know it's going, DOWN
Look at these rubber bands [3X]

Bay-bay, pull her pants down
Try to snatch that rubber band stacks
Fouling up my backpack, while I holla
"What's up Soulja?" Dolla popping, bet it throw it
Showing off the middle finger
Showing off the index ring
Yeah I know my index stink
Cheddar diamonds, yellow rings
It's Soulja Boy Tell 'Em man
And my chain and the friends
A shout out to the Mona Lisa hanging on my wall
In my crib right next to the rubber bands dawg
For real

[Chorus: repeat 2X]
Look at these rubber bands
Bouncing left and right, up and down
Call my band right now, let 'em know it's going, DOWN
Look at these rubber bands [3X]

Bam! Hands down, I got swag for the year
Rubber bands on my neck, yellow ice in my ear
Make my grill disappear, when I smile in the sun
When you see the money game mayne, well you better run
Cause we snatch yo' chicks and take yo' trucks
Ain't no need to holla pot nah
Just pass me the rubber bands
And the rest'll follow shawty
Holla if you hear me homey, scream if you see me shawty
Be ready to scream, cause you about to see me shawty

[Chorus: repeat 2X]
Look at these rubber bands
Bouncing left and right, up and down
Call my band right now, let 'em know it's going, DOWN
Look at these rubber bands [3X]

Walk inside the mall
Girls screaming cause I'm fresher than a doll
New yarns, different seasons
Boy I got a ball
I got a have it all, if I can't have the best
Then I don't want it all, this is how we boss
This is how we ball, pop tags then we do it boy
Shaking them haters off, see that do it do it fluid boy
Soulja Boy tell them yeah, tell them I'm the man
Yeah you can't get in my mansion unless you hold a grand

[Chorus: repeat 2X]
Look at these rubber bands
Bouncing left and right, up and down
Call my band right now, let 'em know it's going, DOWN
Look at these rubber bands [3X]

Soulja Boy

DeAndre Cortez Way (b. July 28, 1990), better known as his stage name Soulja Boy, is a rapper, producer, and social media influencer born in Chicago, Illinois and raised in Atlanta, Georgia whose debut single “Crank That (Soulja Boy)” hit No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and would hold that spot for seven non-consecutive weeks.

At 15 years old, Soulja began uploading songs to SoundClick and eventually moved to YouTube and MySpace. By March 2007, he came up with the concept behind “Crank That” and uploaded the song—and a video of its accompanying dance—online. Two months later, in May 2007, “Crank That” started to go viral. He signed to Interscope Records in the same month. By October, his major label debut album Souljaboytellem.com was released and peaked at No. 4 on the Billboard 200. But critics quickly blasted his simplistic lyrics and unorthodox flows, questioning whether or not he’d just be a one-hit wonder.

“Crank That” earned him a Grammy nomination and he would continue to find success with the songs “Kiss Me Thru the Phone”, “Turn My Swag On”, and “Pretty Boy Swag”. He’s released mixtape after mixtape, left Interscope, made noise with rumors of signing with YMCMB and eventually launched own label Stacks on Deck Entertainment.
