Girl Crush
Little Big Town Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I got a girl crush
Hate to admit it but
I got a heart rush
Ain't slowing down
I got it real bad
Want everything she has
That smile and that midnight laugh
She's giving you now

I want to taste her lips
Yeah, 'cause they taste like you
I want to drown myself
In a bottle of her perfume
I want her long blonde hair
I want her magic touch
Yeah, 'cause maybe then
You'd want me just as much
I got a girl crush
I got a girl crush

I don't get no sleep
I don't get no peace
Thinking about her
Under your bed sheets
The way that she's whispering
The way that she's pulling you in
Lord knows I've tried
I can't get her off my mind

I want to taste her lips
Yeah, 'cause they taste like you
I want to drown myself
In a bottle of her perfume
I want her long blonde hair
I want her magic touch
Yeah, 'cause maybe then
You'd want me just as much
I got a girl crush

I got a girl crush
Hate to admit it but
I got a heart rush
It ain't slowing down

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Little Big Town's "Girl Crush" tells a story about a woman that's infatuated with another woman who is in love with a man. The song details her envy and admiration for the woman and her desire to be like her and have what she has. The lyrics in the first verse suggest that the woman has a "girl crush," which she hates to admit, and that she's got it "real bad," and she wants everything the woman she is admiring has, such as her smile, her laugh, and her ability to please her man.


The second verse reveals that the woman can't stop thinking about the other woman and the way she's with the man, even when they're under the bed sheets. The chorus then describes the woman's desire to be the other woman and have the man's affection, even if it means taking on the traits of the other woman. She wants to taste her lips because they taste like the man's, drown herself in a bottle of her perfume, and have her long blonde hair and magic touch.
