I Think She Likes Me

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
See the house, see the car, check the watch I'm for real
Jump up in my ride, baby kick of your heels
You can fix your make-up on the way, baby chill chill
And now she's kissin' on me, got me so high
She said she really liked me
'cause I'm a nice guy guy guy guy
We hit the Malibu shops and the drive-in
I bought her all the fancy things that she wanted
I think she liked me
Naah she like my money
Oohoo
[Girl]
He took me down to the beach for the weekend
I made him buy me everything that I wanted
He's feeling lucky, I'm gonna let 'em keep dreamin'
He thinks I like 'em, huh - I like his money
I know she's the one, 'cause she laughs at my jokes
Gonna take her home, introduce her to my folks (hey mom)
She's a classic girl, but a freak on the low
And I know she'll never leave me even if I went broke
And even though I got it, even though I'm fly
She knows what really matters
Is on the inside side side side
I took her down to the beach for the weekend
We hit the Malibu shops and the drive-in
I bought her all the fancy things that she wanted
I think she liked me
Naah she like my money
Oohoo
He took me down to the beach for the weekend
I made him buy me everything that I wanted
He's feeling lucky, I'm gonna let 'em keep dreamin'
He thinks I like 'em, huh - I like his money
You know me, humble guy
I could be the one that change your life
Play no games, tell no lies
You could be the one that's by my side
I like that, yeah that's cool
First I'm gonna need them keys to the coop
[Jesse:] I love you girl
I know you do
But me and my girls got things to do
Do do do do do dododo
Like what?
He took me down to the beach for the weekend
I made him buy me everything that I wanted
He's feeling lucky, I'm gonna let 'em keep dreamin'
He thinks I like 'em, I like his money
I took her down to the beach for the weekend
We hit the Malibu shops and the drive-in
I bought her all the fancy things that she wanted
I think she liked me
Naah she like my money
Hey!
Oh!
Oohoo
Oohoo
In the song "I Think She Likes Me", Jesse McCartney sings about being with a girl whom he believes likes him for who he is, but he soon realizes that she is only interested in his money. He starts off by talking about how he likes to flex his wealth with his international fashion style and various luxurious possessions like his car and watch. He invites the girl to ride with him and assures her that she can fix her makeup in the car. As they spend time together, he believes that she really likes him because he's a nice guy, and he takes her to the beach for a weekend getaway. He even buys her all the fancy things she wants. However, towards the end of the song, it turns out that the girl only likes him for his money, and he realizes that he's been deceived.
The song reflects the idea that people can be deceiving and not genuine in relationships. There is also a sense of irony in the lyrics, as Jesse McCartney sings about how he thinks the girl likes him, but the girl sings back saying that she likes his money instead. It highlights the importance of being cautious when getting into new relationships and not rushing into things too quickly.
