Composition and theme

After the success of Usher's "Yeah!" and Petey Pablo's "Freek-a-Leek", LaFace executive L.A. Reid wanted a female version of Pablo's "Freek-a-Leek". Ciara went in the recording studio with Hip-hop-crunk producer Lil Jon. She began writing a demo, but she had difficulty composing lyrics and creating a melody. Reid asked songwriter Sean Garrett, who was co-writer of Usher's Yeah!, to help Ciara write the song. The process took several days including Ciara and Garrett writing verses over the phone. The demo became "Goodies", which is the answer song to Pablo's"Freek-a-Leek". Lil Jon heard the demo and wanted to record the full track. Ciara became the first woman to record a crunk song.

The song's protagonist rejects a male's sexual advances, proclaiming that he will never get her "goodies" because "they stay in the jar". The song is basically about female empowerment and virginity. The protagonist does not want to an object over a complex instrumental. Fazed.com published "it's both clever and ironic considering how sexy her image"[1] Overstock.com published it's a "singularly disarming combination of an empowering message backed by an intoxicatingly sexy beat".[2]
