A music question, I often hear a pop song (fairly recent) on radio bumpers that is a bouncy song but the only lyrics I ever hear are (beat, beat) "ooooohooo, (beat, beat) weeeeehoooo. (beat, beat)..ooooohooo, (beat, beat) weehooo" in a high-pitched voice.
Anyone? Anyone?

 

That's that Lil Wayne song...damn can't think of the name.
