"Girl Like Dat" lyrics - JULIA MICHAELS

JULIA MICHAELS
"Girl Like Dat"

I thought you knew better, baby
But there you go again
You like the ones who take the money when you're throwin' it
She says that you're the only one, and you're believin' it
Tell your friends you're in love, they think you're crazy
'Cause she ain't nothing but a gold miner, baby!

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why you wanna girl that's diggin' for diamonds?
That don't love you, but love on the Prada
The kinda girl you can't bring home to mama
Why you wanna girl like that?
Why you wanna girl that's bobbin' for Birkin?
No heart, but she knows how to work it
Don't you want an independent woman?
Why you wanna girl like dat?

[Chorus:]
Girl Like Dat

Didn't your mama teach you
Not to bring home gold miners?
I know it's hard out here these days, slim-pickin's
Bad girls pickin' money over feelings
They don't leave home without a compact mirror
Just to look behind your back for somethin' better

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why you wanna girl that's diggin' for diamonds?
That don't love you, but love on the Prada
The kinda girl you can't bring home to mama
Why you wanna girl like that?
Why you wanna girl that's bobbin' for Birkin?
No heart, but she knows how to work it
Don't you want an independent woman?
Why you wanna girl like dat?

[Chorus:]
Girl Like Dat

[Bridge:]
Don't go wastin' your time chasin' wafers, baby
They'll just float off with all of your paper, baby
Don't you wanna a girl to make money?
Down for your money
Always stick around for the gold, honey
Open up your wallet and they all come runnin'

[Pre-Chorus:]
Why you wanna girl that's diggin' for diamonds?
That don't love you, but love on the Prada
The kinda girl you can't bring home to mama
Why you wanna girl like that?
Why you wanna girl that's bobbin' for Birkin?
No heart, but she knows how to work it
Don't you want an independent woman?
Why you wanna girl like dat?

[Chorus:]
Girl Like Dat
Girl Like Dat
Girl Like Dat
