LADY
IAN feat Tyana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Streetcars rolling by and airplanes flying high they all meant nothing to me
No one ever looked my way or knew that I was there
I kept walking and the rain kept raining
Until all the streets were bare
Ooh ooh feeling fine mama
Painted ladies and a bottle of wine mama
They took my money like I knew they would
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
City lights were shining on me through my window pane
I kept thinking 'bout the day when I'd be home again
Rocking chairs and summer fairs and swimming in the sea
I kept drinkin', sinkin' 'till there was nothing left of me
Ooh ooh feeling fine mama
Painted ladies and a bottle of wine mama
Ooh ooh feeling good mama
They took my money like I knew they would
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la la la
La la la la la
The song "Lady" by IAN feat Tyana explores the theme of feeling lost and alone in a big city. The lyrics describe the experience of being a stranger in a foreign place, where nobody cares or pays attention to you. The singer remembers walking along the streets, watching the streetcars and airplanes pass by, but feeling disconnected from everything around them. They long for the comfort and familiarity of home, with its simple pleasures like rocking chairs, summer fairs, and swimming in the sea.
The chorus of the song, with its repeated "Ooh ooh feeling fine mama" and "La la la la la"s, creates a sense of both resignation and defiance. The singer acknowledges that they have been taken advantage of and lost their money, but they still try to find some joy and pleasure in life, even if it's through drinking and partying with painted ladies and a bottle of wine. There's a bittersweet quality to the song, as if the singer knows that this lifestyle can't fill the emptiness inside them, but they're making the best of a difficult situation.
Overall, "Lady" is a poignant and relatable song about feeling lost in a big city and trying to find a way to cope. The melody and vocals are haunting and beautiful, adding to the emotional impact of the lyrics.
Line by Line Meaning
I remember setting out just to see what I could see
I started a journey purely out of curiosity and with no particular destination in mind
Streetcars rolling by and airplanes flying high they all meant nothing to me
The hustle and bustle of the city did not excite me nor did the sight of passing vehicles
No one ever looked my way or knew that I was there
I walked unnoticed and ignored by everyone I passed
I kept walking and the rain kept raining
Despite the unpleasant weather, I continued to walk towards a goal that was still unknown
Ooh ooh feeling fine mama
Expressing a sense of happiness or contentment
Painted ladies and a bottle of wine mama
Enjoying the company of attractive women and indulging in some wine
They took my money like I knew they would
My spending habits and risky behavior led to losing money as expected
City lights were shining on me through my window pane
At night, I could see the bright lights of the city from my window
I kept thinking 'bout the day when I'd be home again
I longed for the comfort of my home and the familiar surroundings I had left behind
Rocking chairs and summer fairs and swimming in the sea
Memories of peaceful moments spent at home came to mind, such as sitting in a rocking chair, attending summer festivals, and swimming in the ocean
I kept drinkin', sinkin' 'till there was nothing left of me
To cope with the feeling of being lost and disconnected, I turned to alcohol and let them consume me completely
Ooh ooh feeling good mama
Despite the challenges I faced, I found moments of joy and happiness
La la la la la la la
Expressing a sense of freedom and carelessness through nonsensical sounds
