Help me with some slang - davemchine - 12-17-2023

So I'm learning to play the song Mistletoe by Justin Bieber and the lyrics say, "I'm a be under the mistletoe with you, shawty with you, with you, shawty with you..." Google says shawty means an attractive female but that doesn't' seem to quite fit. What does it mean? Maybe I don't want to know...

Sure it isn't shawtly (shortly) with you"? (Sorry, just an unhip old guy taking a WAG.)

Shorty is just "your girl." Pronunciation may differ!

Why would you play or listen to anything by Justin Bieber?


Re: Help me with some slang - gadje - 12-17-2023

With you, shawty, with you
With you, shawty, with you
With you, under the mistletoe

There's a comma after each "shawty".

Aren't all girlfriends attractive?
