"Goodies" is the debut single by American recording artist Ciara. Written by herself, Sean Garrett, LeMarquis Jefferson, and Craig Love, the song is produced by Lil Jon and features label-mate Petey Pablo. It was released worldwide from June 2004 as the lead single from her debut album of the same name. The song was recorded as an answer song to the featured act's hit single, "Freak-a-Leek". Its lyrics are about virginity. The song's protagonist rejects men's sexual advances, proclaiming that they will never get her "goodies" because "they stay in the jar".
The single was well-received by critics who praised its whistling crunk beat and Ciara's breathy vocals. The song was a commercial success, peaking at number one in the United States for seven weeks, becoming the longest running number one debut single by a female artist since 1977. It also topped charts in the United Kingdom and reached the top ten in many other international markets. It was certified Platinum by the RIAA, and remains as Ciara's most successful single in the US. The song gave Ciara the title as the "First Lady or Princess of Crunk&B".
