"Eenie Meenie" is a song by American-Jamaican singer Sean Kingston and Canadian singer Justin Bieber. The song was written by both Kingston and Bieber along with Carlos Battey, Steven Battey, Marcos Palacios and Ernest Clark and Benny Blanco and was produced by the latter. It was originally released as the first single from Kingston's third studio album Back 2 Life on March 23, 2010, but was taken off for unknown reasons. However, it is included on Bieber's first studio album My World 2.0. The song, a dance-pop number with Kingston's reggae influences and Bieber's R&B vocals, is lyrically about an indecisive lover.
Lyrics of Eenie Meenie
[Sean Kingston:]
Eenie meenie miney mo
Catch a bad chick by her toe
If she holler (if, if, if she holler) let her go
She's indecisive
She can't decide
She keeps on lookin'
From left to right
Girl, come a bit closer
Look in my eyes
Searchin' is so wrong
I'm Mr. Right
You seem like the type
To love 'em and leave 'em
And disappear right after this song
So give me the night
To show you, hold you
Don't leave me out here dancin' alone
You can't make up your mind, mind, mind, mind, mind
Please don't waste my time, time, time, time, time
I'm not tryin' to rewind, wind, wind, wind, wind
I wish our hearts could come together as one
'Cause shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
[Justin Bieber:]
Let me show you what your missin'
Paradise
With me you're winning, girl
You don't have to roll the dice
Tell me what you're really here for (here for)
Them other guys?
I can see right through you
You seem like the type
To love 'em and leave 'em
And disappear right after the song
So give me the night
To show you, hold you
Don't leave me out here dancin' alone
Can't make up your mind, mind, mind, mind, mind
Please don't waste my time, time, time, time, time
Not tryin' to rewind, wind, wind, wind, wind
I wish our hearts could come together as one
'Cause shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
[Sean Kingston:]
Eenie meenie miney mo
Catch a bad chick by her toe
If she holler (if, if, if she holler) let her go
Eenie meenie miney mo
Catch a bad chick by her toe
If she holler, holler, holler (let, let, let, let)
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover
Shorty is a eenie meenie miney mo lover

You can't make up your mind, mind, mind, mind, mind
Please don't waste my time, time, time, time, time
I'm not tryin' to rewind, wind, wind, wind, wind
I wish our hearts could come together as one
