Fortune Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Come on, big fella, you drunk, big fella
Two sips and now you wanna trip, big fella
You not a drinker, I can see it all in your leg, big fella
You wobbly, big fella, you finna fall
Sit down, you drunk, big fella

All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking, ay ay

All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking, hey
All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking, ay ay

Everybody outside, everybody outside
When I pull up outside, all night, no
Everybody high five, everybody wanna smile
Everybody wanna lie, that's nice, no
Oh, now you wanna chill, oh, now you wanna build
Oh, now you got the bill, that's cool though
Oh, now you got the gas, oh, now you wanna laugh
Oh, now you need a cab, that's true though
All you do is talk, I ain't got shit to say
Can't no one get in my car, I don't even valet
Long discussions, oh, you my cousin?
No you wasn't, you just wanna ride
You just wanna talk about politics, Chicago shit and rocket ships
Shut up! Start dancing, hoe

All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking, ay ay
All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking, hey
All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking, ay ay

You just went and spilt fries in the seat
Sprite on the seat, come ride on the seat, ay
Last girl, she'll lie on the seat, she'll fart on the seat
Now she jog in the streets, say
I don't trust no one faking like a fan, asking for a pic
You should use your phone, call a Uber
You a goofy if you think I don't know you need a Lyft
Is you is or is you ain't got gas money
No IOU's or debit cards, I need cash money
So back up, back up, I need space
Now, I need you to slow down, it's not a race
Now I can't really hear what you gotta say now
Shut up! Start dancing, hoe

All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking, ay ay
All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking all night, ay

All night, I been drinking all night
I been drinking all night, I been drinking, ay ay

Overall Meaning

The song "At Night" by Fortune is a party anthem that depicts the scene of a wild night out with friends. The lyrics suggest that the singer has been drinking all night and is now dealing with his drunk friend, whom he tries to take care of while at the same time enjoying himself. The line "Come on, big fella, you drunk, big fella" is particularly memorable, as it conveys the friendly yet slightly condescending vibe of the singer.

The song also touches on some common themes of nightlife, particularly the camaraderie among strangers and the fleeting relationships that form during a night of partying. The lines "Everybody outside, everybody high five, everybody wanna smile" and "Long discussions, oh, you my cousin? No you wasn't, you just wanna ride" reflect the experience of meeting new people and engaging in shallow conversation purely for the sake of entertainment. The song ends with the singer shutting down an annoying companion and urging everyone to start dancing, which reinforces the idea that the night out is primarily about having fun and letting loose.

In terms of overall mood, "At Night" is a fun and upbeat song with a catchy hook and a funky beat. It's the kind of song that's perfect for dancing or singing along to, particularly if you're in the mood for something light-hearted and easygoing.
