Got A Feeling
Rhubarb Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

You know she's one in a million
One of the few that night
She's going to ask me her the question
Can anyone tow this line

[Chorus]
She's on the first line, keeping everybody in tow
She's on the first line, keeping everybody in tow

She's only moving lightly,
Keeping her back up straight.
You know she's breaking the rules,
But someone knows how to play this game.

She's on the first line, keeping everybody in tow
She's on the first line, keeping everybody in tow
She's got a feeling she could be alone all night.(She's on the first line, She's on the first line,)
She's got a feeling she could be alone all night.(She's on the first line, She's on the first line, whew)

Like a bull at a gate,
Jumped the gun like I've always done
Tripped head over heels
Cold feelings surround me

She's on the first line, keeping everybody in tow
She's on the first line, keeping everybody in tow

She's got a feeling she could be alone all night. (She's on the first line, She's on the first line,)
She's got a feeling she could be alone all night. (She's on the first line, She's on the first line, whew)

Overall Meaning

The song "Got a Feeling" by Rhubarb talks about a woman who is unique and stands out from the crowd. She is confident and will not hesitate to ask the tough questions. The song seems to be describing her as a leader, as she is on the first line, keeping everyone in tow. The repetition of the chorus reinforces her position as a leader, as everyone is following her.

The woman in the song is breaking the rules, but is doing so in a way that shows she knows how to play the game. She moves lightly and keeps her back straight, indicating that she is in control of the situation. Despite this, the woman has a feeling that she could be alone all night, which could be an indication of her fear of being vulnerable and letting others close to her.

The verses themselves describe the male narrator's feelings towards the woman. He compares himself to a bull at a gate, saying that he always jumps the gun and makes mistakes. He has fallen head over heels for this woman, but cold feelings surround him, possibly indicating that there is some sort of distance between them.

You know she's one in a million
She is very unique and special

One of the few that night
Among all the people, she is one of the rare ones

She's going to ask me her the question
She will pose a question to me

Can anyone tow this line
Can anyone follow this particular course of action

She's only moving lightly,
She only moves with a little force

Keeping her back up straight.
She maintains an upright posture

You know she's breaking the rules,
She is disregarding the established conventions

But someone knows how to play this game.
However, she is playing the game skillfully

She's got a feeling she could be alone all night.
She has a premonition that she could remain solitary throughout the night

(She's on the first line, She's on the first line,)

Like a bull at a gate,
Like a charging bull at a fence
