  • I always say what I'm feeling
    I was born without a zip on my mouth
    Sometimes I don't even mean it
    It takes a little while to figure me out
    I like my coffee with two sugars in it
    High heels and my jewelry dripping
    Drink and I get all fired up (hey, hey, hey)
    Insecure but I'm working with it
    Many things that I could get rid of
    Ain't about to give it up

    I made a few mistakes, I regret it nightly
    I broke a couple hearts that I wear on my sleeve
    My momma always said, "Girl, you're trouble" and
    And now I wonder, could you fall for a woman like me?
    And every time we touch, boy, you make me feel weak
    I can tell you're shy and I think you're so sweet
    Spending every night under covers and
    Still I wonder, could you fall for a woman like me? (A woman)

    Woman like me, like a woman like me
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me (a woman)
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me

    And baby, just be mine for the weekend
    We can get a takeaway and sit on the couch
    Or we could just go out for the evening
    Hopefully end up with you kissing my mouth, ayy, ayy
    You got them blue jeans with a rip up in them
    My hair with your fingers in it
    Love it when you turn me on
    'Yoncé with a little bit of
    "Love Drunk" in the middle with it
    Get down to our favorite song

    I made a few mistakes, I regret it nightly
    I broke a couple hearts that I wear on my sleeve
    My momma always said, "Girl, you're trouble" and
    And now I wonder, could you fall for a woman like me?
    And every time we touch, boy, you make me feel weak
    I can tell you're shy and I think you're so sweet
    Spending every night under covers and
    Still I wonder, could you fall for a woman like me? (A woman)

    Woman like me, like a woman like me
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me (a woman)
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me

    Yo, woman like me, yes, a woman like me (oh)
    Soon as I brush up on him, I could tell he like me (oh)
    You know all them mandem ah try fi swipe me (k'yuh)
    Knotted up, he could afford to ice me (ahh, rhrr)
    Tell 'em there's a bad Trini bitch inna your area (uh)
    But the more bad bitches, then the more merrier (c'mon)
    Baddies to my left and to the right a little scarier (uh)
    Rude boy, tell me, can you handle all this derrière? (a so it go, rhrr)
    Uh, a million, I'm getting my billi on
    Greatest of all time 'cause I'm a chameleon
    I switch it up for every era, I'm really bomb
    These bitches really wanna be Nicki, I'm really mom (uh)
    Apple cut the check, I want all this money
    Seven Up, go grip the TEC,and leave all this bloody
    I-it's the Queen and Little Mix, skated on 'em, sorry
    My daddy is Indian (swish), a-all this curry (mh)

    Woman like me, like a woman like me
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me

    I've made a few mistakes, I regret it nightly
    I broke a couple hearts that I wear on my sleeve
    My momma always said, "Girl, you're trouble" and
    And now I wonder, could you fall for a woman like me? (like a woman like me, yeah)
    And every time we touch, boy, you make me feel weak
    I can tell you're shy and I think you're so sweet
    Spending every night under covers and
    Still I wonder, could you fall for a woman like me?
    (For a woman like me)

    (Na, na, na, na, na, a woman like me, like me)
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me (fall for a woman like me)
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me (na, na, na, na, na, uh)
    La-la-la woman like me, like a woman like me (I said)
