GIRL LIKE ME Lyrics

I want a girl like Shakira, eh
Esa latina está rica (ah)
I want a find me a chica que sepa vivir y que viva la vida
I need a bien bonita (wuh)
Elegante señorita (wuh)
Girl, I want you and I need ya
All of my life, yup, baby, let's team up

I want a girl that shine like glitter (bling)
A girl that don't need no filter
The real for real
A girl that's a natural killa (prr)

I wanna girl that's a heater (hot)
Caliente, off the meter (hot)
Yo quiero, mira, yo quiero
Una chica que no me diga mentiras

So they tell me that you lookin' for a girl like me
So they tell me that you lookin' for a girl like me
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me

Oye, mami, estoy buscando una chica así
Oye, mami, estoy buscando una chica así
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me

Sacúdelo como Shaki
Baby, drop it low on top me
Electric field, so shock me
Your hips don't lie, they rock me
Baby, come get me, you got me
Oye, mami, ven aquí
You know I'm liking what I see
Muévelo, muévelo, muévelo así
Yo quiero una mujer
Una princesa no tiene pa' ver
Esa chick with no boundaries that's down for whatev'
Buena en la cama, she good in the bed
A girl that be using her head (her head)
To use the cabeza, the best
I want a girl who's a diva
No quiero otra, sí, eso es

So they tell me that you lookin' for a girl like me
So they tell me that you lookin' for a girl like me
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me

When I come it shines like glitter
Baby, you know I need no filter
For real, I'm real
You know I'm real
Like that my lips are so glossy
Like how my neck is so bossy
Baby, if you do it my way
Just for the hell of it, I'll let you love me

Latinas
Latinas
Sha-Sha-Shakira
Sha-Sha-Shakira

I like latinas
Ones who look like Selena
Shake her bunda like Anitta
Morenas las más finas
I like dominicanas
Boricuas and colombianas
In East L.A. I like the chicanas
And they want a piece of the big manzana, eh

So they tell me that you lookin' for a girl like me
Oye, mami, estoy buscando una chica así
Ah-ah-ah, you're lookin' for
A girl like me

When I come it shines like glitter
Baby, you know I need no filter
For real, I'm real
You know I'm real
Like that my lips are so glossy
Like it when I get so bossy
Baby, if you do it my way
Just for the hell of it, I'll let you love me

What is the Meaning of GIRL LIKE ME?

"GIRL LIKE ME" by The Black Eyed Peas and Shakira is a spicy, bilingual anthem that celebrates the allure of confident, independent women. The lyrics express a desire for a woman who embodies qualities like Shakira's - vivacious, authentic, and unapologetically herself. She's a "natural killa," shining without filters or pretense. This isn't just about physical attraction; it's about admiring strength, intelligence ("using her head"), and the ability to live life on her own terms. The song also pays homage to Latinas worldwide, name-dropping iconic figures like Selena and Anitta. So if you're looking for a girl like them - well, good luck! They're rare gems that shine like glitter and don't need your approval (or Instagram filters) to know they're real.
