Gotta Get Me Some
Nickelback Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I went out on the town with a friend last weekend.
His ex girlfriend's friend was there alone.
She bought a couple rounds and I got the feeling, she could really handle alcohol.

Another one down and headed off the deep end.
The more we drank, the less that we had on.

And it turns out she's got everything I want, but all rolled into one.
She smokes a little home grown, drinks a little Cuervo.
Still a little down home, there was never a doubt.
She's got a fast car, hotter than a dance bar.
Looking like a rock star, she'll be the talk of the town.
You know, she's got everything I want, but all rolled into one.
Gotta get me some.

God all mighty look at that body.
Looks just like a sticker on a new Ferrari.
She's a scene from a Baywatch rerun.
Hotter then a barrel on a squeeze machine gun.

Well, she can get it lower then a Maserati.
Never seen somebody move that way.
Everywhere she goes there's an instant party.
Everybody wants to know her name.

And it turns out she's got everything I want, but all rolled into one.
She smokes a little home grown, drinks a little Cuervo.
Still a little down home, there was never a doubt.
She's got a fast car, hotter then a dance bar.
Looking like a rock star, and she likes to go out and

She likes to get her hands up.
Anything to stand on.
Anything to dance on.
She'd be swinging around.
Under the hot lights, underneath the spot light.
Keep it going all night.
She'll be the talk of the town.

You know, she's got everything I want, but all rolled into one.
Gotta get me some.

God all mighty look at that body.
Looks just like a sticker on a new Ferrari.
She's a scene from a bay watch rerun.
Hotter then a barrel on a squeeze machine gun.

And it turns out she's got everything I want, but all rolled into one.
She smokes a little home grown, drinks a little Cuervo.
Still a little down home, there was never a doubt.
She's got a fast car, hotter then a dance bar.
Looking like a rock star, and she likes to go out and

Get her hands up.
Anything to stand on.
Anything to dance on.
She'd be swinging around.
Under the hot lights, underneath the spot light.
Keep it going all night.
She'll be the talk of the town.

You know, she's got everything I want, but all rolled into one.
Gotta get me some.





I gotta get me some.
Gotta get me some.
