Kelly Clarkson vs. Gwen Stefani Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back
Trying so hard, saving up the paper
Now we get to lay back
Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back, the pay back, the pay back

Champagne kisses, hold me in your lap of luxury
I only want to fly first-class desires, you're my limousine
So eloquent, the way we ride, our passion, it just multiplies
There's platinum lightning in the sky
Look I'm livin' like a queen

This kind of love is getting expensive
We know how to live, baby
We're luxurious, like Egyptian cotton
We're so rich in love, we're rollin' in cashmere
Got it in fifth gear, baby
Diamond in the rough is lookin' so sparkly

Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back
Trying so hard, saving up the paper
Now we get to lay back
Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back, the pay back, the pay back

Sugar, honey, sexy baby
When we touch it turns to gold
Sensitive and delicate, kinda like a tuberose
You know you are my treasure chest
It's pure perfection when we kiss and
You're my Mr., I'm your Miss
Gonna be until we're old

This kind of love is getting expensive
We know how to live, baby
We're luxurious, like Egyptian cotton

Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back
Trying so hard, saving up the paper
Now we get to lay back
Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back, the pay back, the pay back

Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back
Trying so hard, saving up the paper
Now we get to lay back
Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back, the pay back, the pay back

Cha-ching, cha-ching, we're loaded and we're gonna blow it
Cha-ching, cha-ching, we're hooked up with the love cause we grow it
Cha-ching, cha-ching, we got hydroponic love and we're smokin'
Cha-ching, cha-ching, we burn it, you and I, we are so lit

And we're so rich in love, we're rollin' in cashmere
Got it in fifth gear, baby
Diamond in the rough is lookin' so sparkly

Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back
Trying so hard, saving up the paper
Now we get to lay back




Working so hard, every night and day
And now we get the pay back, the pay back, the pay back

The crowds reaction when Gwen comes out is a whole other level🔥

@di942842

Gwen sang only 4 lines solo, the rest she sang with the other singers. That's all it took for us to see and hear how well she can also sing country.

@jameszufall1773

Gwen and Blake need to do a remake of this song

@kathleenbonner2685

Gwen blew me away here. Left me speechless. Perfection. John has a voice smooth as silk.

@jameszufall1773

Gwen has come to the style of country music with her husband Blake. Kelly and John can sing just about everything there is. ❤

@firstname3973

Gwen and Blake really do harmonize/sound great together

@macmac3344

Kelly fantastic and spot on as she is with every performance. I’m surprised here by Gwen as to how well this song fits her voice. I enjoyed hearing her immensely. She could have hits with songs like this as well.
