Nobody
Ariana Grande Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Got a job, got a crib, got a mind of my own, honey
But it sure shouldn't mean that you can't take me home, no
Boy, I might be petite, but I'm servin' you snacks, yeah
Ooh, got a thing for a man when I want him so bad, yeah

You might think I'm movin' a little (oh, yeah, yeah)
Fast, 'cause you don't shoot, only dribble (only dribble, babe)
I might seem intimidating, yeah
Baby, I promise I don't bite, but if I do, you gonna like it

Who gonna love you like, like, like me?
Nobody (like, nobody)
Who gonna put it, put it down like me?
Nobody (like, nobody)
Who gonna keep you, keep you on your feet?
Nobody (like, nobody)
Who gonna get you, get you mad like me?

Mm, must blow your mind to see a young lady on top
Ain't no man in the world that could tell me stop, no
Ain't got no time for your ego, don't like it like that, yeah
I could give you sweet lovin', I'm tellin' you that

You might think I'm movin' a little (oh, yeah, yeah)
Fast 'cause you don't shoot, only dribble (dribble, yeah)
I might seem intimidating (yeah)
Baby, I promise I don't bite, if you don't like it, nah

Who gonna love you like, like, like me?

Who gonna put it, put it down like me?

Who gonna keep you, keep you on your feet?

Overall Meaning

In "Nobody," Ariana Grande sings about her independence and self-sufficiency while still longing for a connection and love with someone. She lists all the things she has going for her, such as a job, a place to live, and her own thoughts and desires, but emphasizes that this doesn't mean she doesn't want to be taken home by someone she desires. She acknowledges that some may find her intimidating, but insists that she is not a threat and is in fact someone who can provide sweet loving. The chorus repeatedly asks the question "Who gonna love you like me?" emphasizing her uniqueness and the value she can bring to a relationship.


The song can be seen as a celebration of self-confidence and individuality, but also as a reflection of the difficulties of finding love in today's society. It's a reminder that despite being self-sufficient, human beings still need connection and intimacy with others.
