According to teh intrawebs:
Originally, this song was "Pass The Kutchie," meaning a marijuana pipe. Because all the members were between 11 and 16 years old at the time, the group's manager suggested a lyric change, replacing "Kouchie" with "Dutchie." The name change also helped it get airplay on radio and MTV.
