Maroon 5 feat. Cardi B Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You spent the weekend getting even, ooh
We spent the late nights making things right between us
But now it's all good, babe
Roll that Backwood, babe
And play me close
'Til sundown when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Girls like you love fun, and yeah, me too
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I need a girl like you
I spent last night on the last flight to you
You took a whole day up tryna get way up, ooh
We spent the daylight tryna make things right between us
But now it's all good, babe
Roll that Backwood, babe
And play me close
'Cause girls like you run 'round 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
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
I need a girl like you
Maybe it's 6:45
Maybe I'm barely alive
Maybe you've taken my shit for the last time, yeah
Maybe I know that I'm drunk
Maybe I know you're the one
Maybe you're thinking it's better if you drive
Not too long ago, I was dancing for dollars
Know it's really real if I let you meet my mama
You don't want a girl like me I'm too crazy
But every other girl you meet, it's fugazi
I'm sure them other girls were nice enough
But you need someone to spice it up
So who you gonna call? Cardi, Cardi
Come and rev it up like a Harley, Harley
Why is the best fruit always forbidden?
I'm coming to you now doin' twenty over the limit
The red light, red light stop, stop
I don't play when it comes to my heart (let's get it though)
I don't really want a white horse and a carriage
I'm thinkin' more of white Porsches and karats
I need you right here 'cause every time you call
I play with this kitty like you play with your guitar
'Cause girls like you run 'round 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
What I want when I come through
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
I need a girl like you
The lyrics of Maroon 5 ft. Cardi B's song "Girls Like You" depict a man who desires to spend more time with a woman he is interested in. He mentions that they had a disagreement but resolved their issues and now he wants to roll a backwood, smoke, and chill with her. The chorus repeats the line, "I need a girl like you," suggesting that he wants a woman who loves fun and can keep up with his lifestyle. Additionally, he implies that other girls he has dated have not been exciting enough to keep his attention.
Cardi B's rap interlude adds another layer to the song's interpretation as she confidently asserts herself as the woman the man needs. She portrays herself as someone who is different than other girls the man has dated, and someone who spices things up in a relationship. She also mentions that she does not need materialistic things like a white horse and carriage but rather a man who is present and attentive to her needs.
Overall, "Girls Like You" explores the desire for a connection with someone who can match one's energy and bring excitement to a relationship.
Line by Line Meaning
Spent twenty-four hours, I need more hours with you
I want to spend more time with you
You spent the weekend getting even, ooh
You were busy during the weekend trying to get even
We spent the late nights making things right between us
We spent a lot of time at night trying to solve our issues
But now it's all good, babe
We've resolved our issues, everything is good now
Roll that Backwood, babe
Let's relax and smoke some weed
And play me close
Let's be physically and emotionally close
'Cause girls like you run 'round with guys like me
Girls like you tend to hang out with guys like me
'Til sundown when I come through
Until the end of the day when I visit you
I need a girl like you, yeah yeah
I need someone like you in my life
Girls like you love fun, and yeah, me too
You love having fun and so do I
What I want when I come through
When I come to see you, this is what I want
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Repeating the need for a girl like you
Maybe it's 6:45
It could be early in the morning
Maybe I'm barely alive
I could be barely awake or feeling dead inside
Maybe you've taken my shit for the last time, yeah
You might have had enough of my attitude
Maybe I know that I'm drunk
I could be aware of my drunken state
Maybe I know you're the one
I know deep down that you're the one for me
Maybe you're thinking it's better if you drive
You might be thinking that you should be the one driving us home
Not too long ago, I was dancing for dollars
I used to be a stripper not long ago
Know it's really real if I let you meet my mama
If I introduce you to my mother, it means our relationship is serious
You don't want a girl like me I'm too crazy
You might think I'm too crazy for you
But every other girl you meet, it's fugazi
Compared to me, the other girls you meet are fake
I'm sure them other girls were nice enough
I'm sure those other girls were nice, but not for you
But you need someone to spice it up
You need someone to add some excitement to your life
So who you gonna call? Cardi, Cardi
You can always count on Cardi B to add some spice
Come and rev it up like a Harley, Harley
Let's rev up the excitement and energy like a Harley
Why is the best fruit always forbidden?
Why is it that the best things are always unattainable or forbidden?
I'm coming to you now doin' twenty over the limit
I'm rushing to be with you, even driving over the speed limit
The red light, red light stop, stop
Stopping at the red light, as we follow the rules
I don't play when it comes to my heart (let's get it though)
I take my heart very seriously and I'm not playing games
I don't really want a white horse and a carriage
I don't dream of a fairy-tale romance with a white horse and carriage
I'm thinkin' more of white Porsches and karats
I dream of luxury cars like a white Porsche and lots of jewelry
I need you right here 'cause every time you call
I need you to be present in my life, because every time you call, I miss you
I play with this kitty like you play with your guitar
I'm inviting you to explore my body and pleasure me, just like you play music on your guitar
