"Fancy Like" is a song by Walker Hayes. The song was remixed with Kesha as a featured artist and was released September 10, 2021.
Background[]
During the COVID-19 pandemic, Hayes and his family decided to make TikTok videos for fun, creating dances for several songs from his EP Country Stuff for his children, including "Country Stuff" and "I Hope You Miss Me". The TikTok video for "Fancy Like" has received more than 490,000 likes and 4,700 comments, and became a popular meme and led to the song becoming a viral hit.
In an interview with CMT, he said: "It's nice to know when you put out something that honestly, I just wrote about my family. There's no pretentiousness there. It's just who we are. When you get to be that honest and the public reacts, it's a real magical thing. And the dances, that's just me being a dad. I mean, that's just how we roll around here."
In response to the song's popularity, Applebee's brought back its Oreo Cookie Shake, which was mentioned in the song and had been discontinued in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The chain used the song in commercials during the late summer and fall of 2021.

Kesha’s here
Let’s go, baby
Ay, my girl is bangin’
She’s so low maintenance
Don’t need no champagne poppin’ entertainment
Take her to Wendy’s
Can’t keep her off me
She wanna dip me like them fries in her Frosty
But every now and then, when I get paid
I gotta spoil my baby with an upgrade
Yeah, we fancy like Applebee’s on a date night
Got that Bourbon Street Steak with the Oreo Shake
Get some whipped cream on the top, too
Two straws, one check, girl, I got you
Bougie like Natty in the Styrofoam
Squeaky-squeakin in the truck bed all the way home
Some Alabama-jamma, she my Dixieland Delight (Hey)
That’s how we do, how we do, fancy like
Ooh
Fancy like, ooh
Fancy like, ooh
Fancy like, ooh, yeah
Oh, I don’t need no Bentley, to impress me
I’ll ride a bull into the party like a jet ski
Boy, put that Dom down, take me to Waffle House (Hey)
Give me those cheap thrills, chillin’ in the Deep South
But every now and then, when I get paid
I gotta spoil my baby with an upgrade
Yeah, we fancy like Applebee’s on a date night (That’s right)
Got that Bourbon Street Steak with the Oreo Shake (Hey)
Get some whipped cream on the top, too (Got that whipped cream)
Two straws, one check, girl, I got you (Girl, I got you)
Bougie like Natty in the Styrofoam (Styrofoam)
Squeaky-squeakin in the truck bed all the way home (All the way home)
Some Alabama-jamma, she my Dixieland Delight (Hey)
That’s how we do, how we do, fancy like
My new, clean blue jeans, without the holes in ’em
Country kisses on my lips without the Skoal in ’em
(Oh, we fancy like, ooh)
Yeah, she probably gon’ be keeping some Victoria’s Secrets
Maybe a little Maybelline but she don’t need it
(Oh, we fancy like, ooh)
In the kitchen light, radio slows down
Boxed wine and her up-do goes down
Ay, yeah, we fancy like Applebee’s on a date night (Date night)
Got that Bourbon Street Steak with the Oreo Shake (Hey)
Get some whipped cream on the top, too
Two straws one check, girl, I got you
Bougie like Natty in the Styrofoam (Styrofoam)
Squeaky-squeakin in the truck bed all the way home (All the way home)
Some Alabama-jamma, she my Dixieland Delight (Hey)
That’s how we do, how we do, fancy like
Ayy
My girl is bangin'
She's so low maintenance
Don't need no champagne poppin' entertainment
Take her to Wendy's
Can't keep her off me
She wanna dip me like them fries in her Frosty
But every now and then when I get paid
I gotta spoil my baby with an upgrade (ayy)
Ayy, ayy, ayy
Yeah, we fancy like Applebee's on a date night
Got that Bourbon Street steak with the Oreo shake
Get some whipped cream on the top too
Two straws, one check, girl, I got you
Bougie like Natty in the styrofoam
Squeak-squeakin' in the truck bed all the way home
Some Alabama-jamma, she my Dixieland delight
Ayy, that's how we do, how we do, fancy like, oh
Fancy like, oh
Fancy like, oh
Fancy like, oh
Uh, don't need no Tesla (don't need no Tesla) to impress her (to impress her)
My girl is happy rollin' on a Vespa (there she go)
Don't need no mansion (ooh) to get romancin' (woo)
She's super fine, double wide, slow dancin' (slow dancin')
But every now and then when I get paid
I gotta spoil my baby with an upgrade
Ayy, ayy, ayy
Yeah, we fancy like Applebee's on a date night (that's right)
Got that Bourbon Street steak with the Oreo shake (ayy)
Get some whipped cream on the top too (gotta add that whipped cream)
Two straws, one check, girl, I got you (girl, I got you)
Bougie like Natty in the styrofoam (styrofoam)
Squeak-squeakin' in the truck bed all the way home (all the way home)
Some Alabama-jamma, she my Dixieland delight
Ayy, that's how we do, how we do, fancy like
My new, clean blue jeans without the holes in 'em
Country kisses on my lips without Skoal in 'em
Yeah, she probably gon' be keeping some Victoria's Secrets

Squeak-squeakin' in the truck bed all the way home (all the way home)
Some Alabama-jamma, she my Dixieland delight
Ayy, that's how we do, how we do, fancy like
