One night stand
Kenny G Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Job done, want to have fun
Gonna call my girls gonna get my hair done
So I dress tight, with my heels high
And I think about the moves I'm a pull tonight
When I roll up, out front
Guys looking over like they want some
Make way, sexy
For me and my ladies

[Chorus]
Hear the sound of the DJ playing our jam
Glass down, grab a man
Move to the floor, it's time to get down
Ding ding, first round

Hand on my hips as we start to dip
Close range, full clip
Temptation, sensations, vibrations
My one night stand

Act wild but I got style
Cause I ain't sipping if it ain't crystal
High class, nice ass
Spend your money but I got my own cash
Good vibes, so right
Thank you for the dance tonight
Feel free, baby
Keep looking 'cause you can't have me

[Chorus]

Hand on my hips as we start to dip
Close range, full clip
Temptation, sensations, vibrations
My one night stand

Hey why'all get up get up it's a one night stand
Here I come again with my rhyming slang
I said ride to the rhythm as I flip this sound
Flip this sound we're gonna move around

Mis-Teeq we're coming back again
Love of the music inside your membrane
Yo, I'm gonna burn you with my lyrical flame
Start the game
Come follow me it's time to play

Now don't you get the wrong impression
It's just a dance
I'm with my girlfriends hanging out
To mislead wasn't my intention
Nothing more to say

[Chorus: x2]

Hand on my hips as we start to dip
Close range, full clip
Temptation, sensations, vibrations
My one night stand

[Chorus]

Hand on my hips as we start to dip
Close range, full clip




Temptation, sensations, vibrations
My one night stand

Overall Meaning

Kenny G's One Night Stand is a song about a group of women who are getting ready to have a fun night out. They are confident and ready to conquer the dance floor. The lyrics imply that they are not interested in anything serious and only looking to have a good time. The singer decides to call her girls and get her hair done to prepare for the night. They dress sexy and prepare to show off their moves. As they arrive, they notice the guys checking them out, but they do not pay much attention to them. Instead, they focus on having a good time with their friends. The chorus echoes this sentiment, as the women dance to the music and grab a man for the night. They are in the moment, caught up in the sensations and temptations of the night. However, the singer makes it clear that this is only a one-night stand and nothing more.


The song's message is one of female empowerment and independence. The women in the song are confident and secure in themselves, not relying on anyone else for their enjoyment. They do not need a man to have fun or feel validated. The lyrics also touch on themes of materialism and class, as the singer emphasizes that she has her own money and is high class.


Overall, One Night Stand is a fun, upbeat song that celebrates women's independence and their desire to cut loose and enjoy themselves. The lyrics are catchy and memorable and the bossa nova-inspired instrumentation is up-tempo and perfect for dancing.
