"Yo-Da-Lin in the Valley" is the debut single from Kid Rock, from his debut album Grits Sandwiches for Breakfast. Mike E. Clark helped to produce "Yo-Da-Lin in the Valley". The song mocks how his friends didn't like "going down" on women. He also uses the cadence of LL Cool J's "Going Back to Cali" to deliver its tongue-in-cheek one liner.
