me three

In a situation when one person says something, and another one agrees with them, he/she might say "Me too". If you also agree with them, but don't want to be seen as boring (by saying "Me too" just like that second person) or stupid (by saying "Me too too") you might want to say "Me three".

key by the three

Three kilograms of cocaine. A key is standard slang for a kilogram of drugs, most often cocaine. By stating "by the three," one is saying that they buy cocaine 3 kilograms at a time with the intention of dealing. The following lines show this more. The statement of a Louis Nap Sack is in reference to a Louis Vuitton bag where he holds all of the cocaine or "work" to be dealt.

The other definition for key by the three is wrong, although the "when I chirp shorty chirp back" is in reference to cell phones.
Key by the three, when I chirp shorty chirp back.
