It’s Alright
The sun shall not smite I by day
Nor the moon by night
And everything that I do
Shall be hopeful and right
And if it's all night
It got to be (alright)
Talking to you (all night)
It got to be (alright)
Ay, mama don't lose this one
I'm the lucky one under the sun
If you make me move
Then you know we got to groove
How do you like it?
How do you like it?
Do you, do you, do you, do you?
If it's all night
Got to be (alright)
I'm working all night (all night)
Got to be alright (alright)
See (all night) I work for my pay
(Alright)
Night and day (all night)
Work for my pay (alright)
Night and day
No-no, no, no, no-no
No-no, no, no, no-no
Can't you feel it?
No-no, no, no, no-no
No-no, no, no, no-no
It's got to be (alright)
If it's (all night)
If it's (alright)
Do you like it? (Alright)
Water cold? (Alright)
Screw on forward
Break it back
Tear-a-drop
Wipe the tears from your eyes
And don't you cry
Wiping the lonely tears, baby
I tell you what
If it's all night
Got to be (alright)
If it's all night
Got to be (alright)
Know that I'm a stranger
(Alright) in your town
Nor the moon by night
And everything that I do
Shall be hopeful and right
And if it's all night
It got to be (alright)
Talking to you (all night)
It got to be (alright)
Ay, mama don't lose this one
I'm the lucky one under the sun
If you make me move
Then you know we got to groove
How do you like it?
How do you like it?
Do you, do you, do you, do you?
If it's all night
Got to be (alright)
I'm working all night (all night)
Got to be alright (alright)
See (all night) I work for my pay
(Alright)
Night and day (all night)
Work for my pay (alright)
Night and day
No-no, no, no, no-no
No-no, no, no, no-no
Can't you feel it?
No-no, no, no, no-no
No-no, no, no, no-no
It's got to be (alright)
If it's (all night)
If it's (alright)
Do you like it? (Alright)
Water cold? (Alright)
Screw on forward
Break it back
Tear-a-drop
Wipe the tears from your eyes
And don't you cry
Wiping the lonely tears, baby
I tell you what
If it's all night
Got to be (alright)
If it's all night
Got to be (alright)
Know that I'm a stranger
(Alright) in your town
