Spent twenty-four hours
I need more hours with you
You spent the weekend
Getting even, ooh-ooh
We spent the late nights
Making things right, between us
But now it's all good baby
Roll that Backwoods baby
And play me close

'Cause girls like you
Run around with guys like me
'Til sundown, when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah-yeah

Girls like you
Love fun and yeah, me too

I spent last night
On the last flight to you
Took a whole day up
Trying to get way up, ooh-ooh
We spent the daylight
Trying to make things right between us (oh, oh)
And now it's all good baby
Roll that Backwoods baby
And play me close

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Maroon 5's song "Girls Like You" describe the desire of the singer to be with a girl who is just like the one he is currently with. He has spent an entire day and night with her but still craves more time with her. He acknowledges that girls like her tend to be attracted to guys like him, and he wants to take advantage of that while it lasts. The line "Maybe you've taken my shit for the last time" implies that there may have been a fight or argument between them, but they worked it out and everything is now okay. In the end, he concludes that he needs a girl like her in his life.


The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Girls like you" which could refer to a certain type of girl that the singer is attracted to. He claims that these girls love to have fun and he wants to be a part of that. He admits that he may not be the best influence on her, but he still wants her to be with him until sundown. The mood of the song is relatively upbeat to reflect the romantic and carefree nature of the lyrics.
