Night
Mr. Sleeves Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody put their lips to the tip
It don't matter what you're drinking
Take a swig take a sip
Only one life to live somethings gotta give right
Aim your cup to the sky and drink all night
Everybody put their lips to the tip
It don't matter what you're drinking
Take a swig take a sip

Only one life to live somethings gotta give right
Aim your cup to the sky and drink all night
Had a long day of work now its time to go out
Stressing on what to do but ain't no time to pout
Got home within minutes in seconds I'm in the shower
To get dressed and find a spot should take about an hour
Feeling trapped in a tower
And yet I'm already
I'm looking for a spot to say I'm all steady
So I find a nice place tonight I will shine
Time to have a few drinks to ease my mind
I'm all set just waiting in line
Hoping to have a good time because the feelings alright
So I step inside without a moment to lose
I see a bar in sight which drink should I choose
I said surprise me now I'm on the move
I hear a rapper on stage now I'm in the groove
I step to the front and I'm starting to flip
Everything this cats saying got me on a trip
Hes like
Everybody put their lips to the tip
It don't matter what you're drinking
Take a swig take a sip
Only one life to live somethings gotta give right
Aim your cup to the sky and drink all night
Everybody put their lips to the tip
It don't matter what you're drinking
Take a swig take a sip
Only one life to live somethings gotta give right
Aim your cup to the sky and drink all night
So I finished my cup now I'm headed to the bar
Let me get a refill I'm aiming high as a star
Anything with patron and I should be straight
Now my homies all drinking and the nights going great
Turn the music up in here don't stop the rock
I'm bout to pop n lock tick tock like the clock
With and old school flow and a new school beat
I'm sippin on my drink two steppin with my feet
Ladies hit the dance floor and playas come to
Bring a cup of liquor or bring a brew
And boogie all night long to this rappin crew
Replay this jam or ima act a foo
The rapper goes mic ch ch check one two
Its my boys birthday so they shout out that
Drinking through the night as the club gets packed
While the emcees bring that nice hook back like
Everybody put their lips to the tip
It don't matter what you're drinking
Take a swig take a sip
Only one life to live somethings gotta give right
Aim your cup to the sky and drink all night
Everybody put their lips to the tip
It don't matter what you're drinking
Take a swig take a sip
Only one life to live somethings gotta give right
Aim your cup to the sky and drink all night
Bartender bartender what's to drink
To much liquor to pick I can hardly think
Cranberry and vodka long island iced tea
The list keeps building up as the crowd surrounds me
Margaritas mudslides or just a cocktail
I'm getting drinks like bills coming in the mail
Adios mofo now ill see you soon
Its 2am in the morning time to leave the room
But its all coo I'm still feeling the vibe
Any after parties going down on this side
A homie says my pad whos down to ride
Now everyone's in their cars lookin bonafide
Pull up to the spot everybody inside
No dramas allowed so you can hide your pride
Other than that aim your cups to the sky
And were still bout to party and drink all night
Everybody put their lips to the tip
It don't matter what you're drinking
Take a swig take a sip
Only one life to live somethings gotta give right
Aim your cup to the sky and drink all night
Everybody put their lips to the tip
It don't matter what you're drinking
Take a swig take a sip

Only one life to live somethings gotta give right
Aim your cup to the sky and drink all night
