Margarita
Big Boi/Sleepy Brown Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Five o'clock, but I stopped at 4:59
Twist a J of some hay, got a car from Sleepy Brown (Brown)
See it's going down, downtown at the lounge
Lounge definitely crowded with that happy hour crowd
Drinks for a dollar, everybody buzzin', cousin
Spitting like a major league pitcher trying to cut something
Only throwing balls, no strikes for tonight
So walk into the Chevy for some heavy petting, let's ride
To my underground bungalow, approach the mound
Baby, I'm the head coach now, wow, baby, need a cold wet towel
Pharrell's on the way so stay and play a while
Yeah (ow), uh, Sleepy Brown, Pharrell, Big Boi
Yeah

I been working all day, now I'm done, so see ya
It's time for play, just name the place I'll meet ya
We can do the bar, sip margaritas
Stay on the floor, go with me for a ride
Aren't you feeling nice? Uh
Doesn't it feel nice? Uh
Is everybody high?

Go on, baby, do your thing now
Sitting at the bar, where was you hanging?
I wonder if you know I'm watching you
'Cause everything you do is so beautiful
Oh, the way you run your fingers (over that glass)
Oh, the way you look over your (shoulders when you dance)
I'm trying to get the nerve to talk to you
So maybe we can find something to do

I been working all day, now I'm done, so see ya
It's time for play, just name the place I'll meet ya
We can do the bar, sip margaritas
Stay on the floor, go with me for a ride
Aren't you feeling nice? Uh
Doesn't it feel nice? Uh
Is everybody high?

Oowee, baby, I'm here my lady
Starin' in your eyes, trying to read your mind
Don't you realize I'm right for you?
That type for you, one that makes
All your dreams reality, baby (will go as planned)
Then we'll turn this thing into a (serious romance)
I'm here for you, my babe, what do you need?
You're every wish, ooh girl, I would hear

I been working all day, now I'm done, so see ya
It's time for play, just name the place I'll meet ya
We can do the bar, sip margaritas
Stay on the floor, go with me for a ride
Aren't you feeling nice? Uh
Doesn't it feel nice? Uh
Is everybody high?

Fly, fly (come on, baby)
Fly, fly (do you want to?)
High, high (don't you wanna fly?)
High, high (do you want to?) (Oh, I got you)
Fly, fly (I won't let you fall, girl, come on)
Fly, fly (do you want to?) (Just take my hand)
High, high (come on)
High, high (do you want to?)
Fly, fly (ooh, baby)
Fly, fly (do you want to?)
High, high (let's fly, let's fly)
High, high (do you want to?) (Together you and I)
Fly, fly (alright)
Fly, fly (do you want to?)

(Woo) I been working all day, now I'm done, so see ya
It's time for play, just name the place I'll meet ya
We can do the bar, sip margaritas
Stay on the floor, go with me for a ride
Aren't you feeling nice? Uh




Doesn't it feel nice? Uh
Is everybody high
