Get Like Me Lyrics

[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]
All y'all niggas wanna get like me
Surrounded by bitches that look like these
You know it, you know it
You know it, you know it (Tell them again)
All my niggas be blowin' on trees
Hands so sick so they throwin' up keys
You know it, you know it
You know it, you know it

[Verse 1: Nelly]
I say all y'all niggas wanna get like me
(All y'all niggas wanna get like me)
Now who run the show go look and see
And then count the bitches, nigga — 1, 2, 3
I said and if you feel like something else there
Then tell her that you down for something else, yeah
And if she say, "Kissin' far as it goes"
Don’t worry, she straight like a actor’s nose
You can ball and ball, do it wall to wall
Just sayin' that you can’t do it small is all
You can floss Rolex over Audemar
Om the arm and I’m outshining all of y'all
Can you feel it? Hey, hey
Do you want more? Hey, hey
'Til yo' back sore - Hey, hey
So let’s go, let’s go, oww
[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]
All y'all niggas wanna get like me
Surrounded by bitches that look like these
You know it, you know it
You know it, you know it (Tell them again)
All my niggas be blowin' on trees
Hands so sick so they throwin' up keys
You know it, you know it
You know it, you know it

[Verse 2: Nicki Minaj]
Uh, I'm the shizzniyee
You should follow my example, bitch, i.e
'Cause I'm front row, Isaac Mizrahi
In the truck but I ain't suck diznayee
All these hoes wanna get like me
Get their own speakers and some prose like me
When I'm at the game, all the pros like me
Bitch I'm a pro, ain't a hoe like me
Bitches ain't stuntin' in the cold like me
Some call me bitchie, so Necole like me
Pull up in the Ghost, East Coast like me
My nigga spend money like the coke price free
Uh, bon voyage
Nicki M., baby, Buns Minaj

Back of the ‘Bach slumpty, Humpty Dumpty
On the back of the bike, these stunts be comfy
[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]
All y'all niggas wanna get like me
Surrounded by bitches that look like these
You know it, you know it
You know it, you know it (Tell them again)
All my niggas be blowin' on trees
Hands so sick so they throwin' up keys
You know it, you know it
You know it, you know it

[Bridge: Pharrell Williams]
You wrong
Why you dance so low to this song?
Where your boyfriend at, he gone?
Is that a napkin you put your number on?
You so wrong
Drop down shawty, get your eagle on
Tell your boyfriend you stayin' with Simone
Matter of fact, put your number in my phone

[Verse 3: Nelly]
I’m a fly nigga tatted up with the fade
Yeah, I was rockin’ waves when them niggas had braids
It was Air Force 1’s then I took 'em all to J's
Now they wanna play dumb like they from the Bay
I was tourin' overseas, 2-50 every day
Just came back in the middle of the May
In the Maybach with this chick named May
Wanna know if she can do me; shawty, yes you may
See, the whole rap game sounded like me
Put that on the drums but it sounded like P
Shawty say she horny, sound like me
Say she wanna bring her partner; okay, that sound like three
Fresh off the yacht, feet in the sand
Walk in the club, me in demand
Got a whip on the lot, 'bout 400 grand
Gold 'round my neck, pistol close at hand
'Cause
[Chorus: Pharrell Williams]
All y'all niggas wanna get like me
Surrounded by bitches that look like these
You know it, you know it
You know it, you know it (Tell them again)
All my niggas be blowin' on trees
Hands so sick so they throwin' up keys
You know it, you know it
You know it, you know it, uh

Nelly links up with Nicki Minaj and Pharrell Williams on his single “Get Like Me,” also produced by Pharrell. The drum-patterned track, reminiscent of a classic Neptunes production, was released as the first cut from Nelly’s 2013 album “M.O.”

Nelly talks slick over the thumping beat, Nicki keeps the momentum going, adding a playful verse, and Pharrell adds his golden touch to the hook, singing in his raspy voice.

Originally the track just featured Nelly and Pharrell and the St. Lunatic sat on it for a year before he had a brainwave. “We were coming back to the records that we did, closing out the album and putting everything together and I was just like, ‘Yo I think Nicki might be dope on this,’” Nelly told MTV News “We made it happen and I was right. She killed it!”
