Maroon 5 ft. Cardi B, “Girls like you”

 

Spent 24 hours, I need more hours with you / 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

’Cause girls like you run ’round with guys like me / Till 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 / 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 / Till 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 six forty-five / 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 I’m thinking it’s better if you drive

Oh, ’cause girls like you run ’round with guys like me / Till sundown when I come through / I need a girl like you, yeah…

Not too long ago, I was dancing for dollars (eeoow) / Know it’s really real if I let you meet my mama (eeoow) / You don’t want a girl like me, I’m too crazy / But every other girl you meet is fugazy (okurrrt) / 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’ 20 over the limit / The red light, red light stop, stop (skrrt) / 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’re far / I play with this kitty like you play with your guitar (ah)

’Cause girls like you run ’round with guys like me / Till 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…
