[Intro]
Alright, baby, whenever you're ready

[Verse 1]
When you walk in the bar
And you’re dressed like a star
Rockin' your "eff me" pumps
And a man notice you with your Gucci bag crew
Can't tell who he looking to
’Cause you all look the same, everyone knows your name
And that's your whole claim to fame
You never miss a night, 'cause your dream in life
Is to be a footballer's wife

[Chorus]
You don't like players
That's what you say
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
You don't like ballers
Don’t do nothing for ya
But you’d love a rich man six-foot-two or taller

[Verse 2]
You'rе more than a fan lookin’ for a man
But you end up with one-night stands
Hе could be your whole life if you got past one night
But that part never goes right
In the morning, you're vexed, haha
He's on to the next
And, and you didn't even get no text
So don’t be too upset when they call you a sket
'Cause like the news, every day, you get pressed

[Chorus]
You don't like players
That's what you say
But you really wouldn't mind a millionaire
All them big ballers
Don't do nothing for ya
But you'd love a rich man six-foot-two or taller

[Verse 3]
You can't sit down right 'cause your jeans are too tight
And you're lucky it's ladies' night
So with your big empty purse
Every week it gets worse
At least your breast cost more than hers
So you did Miami 'cause you got there for free
But somehow, you missed the plane
You did too much E
You met somebody and you spent the night getting caned

[Bridge]
Without girls like you, there'd be no fun
We'd go to the club and not see anyone
Without girls like you, there's no night life
All those men just go home to their wives
Now don't be mad at me 'cause you're pushing thirty
And your old tricks no longer work
Yeah, you should have known from the jump
That you always get dumped
So dust off your "fuck me" pumps

[Outro]
Thank you

Amy Jade Winehouse (14 September, 1983 — 23 July, 2011) was an English singer-songwriter known for her immediately recognisable contralto vocal range and soul-jazz style of vocals.

Even at age fourteen, Amy had a breathtakingly unique set of vocals that would propel her into stardom. By age nineteen, she had signed with Simon Fuller’s management company 19 Management. Soon after, she was scouted by Island Record’s A&R representative Darcus Beese and signed over to Island Records. In less than a year, after working closely alongside legendary music producer Salaam Remi, Amy released her debut studio album Frank. The album was praised for its jazz-influenced sound, and earned a nomination for Album of the Year at the 2004 Mercury Music Prize Awards. It rolled out some of Amy’s most notable singles, including “Fuck Me Pumps” and “Stronger Than Me,” the latter of which winning Amy her first Ivor Novello Award in 2004.

Three years after Frank on October 27, 2006, Amy released her sophomore and final studio album Back to Black. The album narrated the ups and downs of Amy’s personal life, most specifically the turmoils she faced with her partner Blake Fielder-Civil. Back to Black saw Amy branch out in terms of genre and production while working with fellow English producer Mark Ronson, who produced five of the eleven tracks featured on the album. Its lead single, “Rehab,” solidified itself as Amy’s staple track, detailing the conversation she had with her management after fears her drinking habits were causing her too much damage. The album’s title track “Back to Black” was released as another single a few months after “Rehab” and unfolded the dark moments that Amy faced after her relationship with Fielder-Civil came to a halt. Despite the album’s immense popularity and four Grammy Award wins, the attention it received, coupled with the incessant touring of the album and pressure placed on her personal life, visibly plunged Amy into her darkest hours that quickly lead to her untimely demise.
