Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's been a hard day's night
And I'd been working like a dog
It's been hard day' s night
I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get homenaje to you
I find the things that you do
Will make feel al right
You know i work

Overall Meaning

The New Merseysiders' song "A Hard Day's Night" is an ode to the difficulties and hardships of working life. The first verse sums it up neatly: "It's been a hard day's night / And I've been working like a dog." The use of the phrase "working like a dog" emphasizes the strenuous and often unappreciated nature of the work being done.


The second verse reveals the singer's desire for rest: "It's been a hard day's night / I should be sleeping like a log." The contrast between the hard work and the need for rest highlights the toll that such work takes on the mind and body.


But the song takes a turn in the chorus, with the introduction of a positive influence in the singer's life: "But when I get home to you / I find the things that you do / Will make me feel alright." The love and support of the singer's partner becomes a source of comfort and motivation, providing a reason to keep going through the difficulties of the day.


Line by Line Meaning

It's been a hard day's night
I've had a tough day today


And I'd been working like a dog
I've been working very hard and tirelessly


It's been hard day's night
It has been a long and difficult day


I should be sleeping like a log
I should be sleeping deeply and soundly


But when I get homenaje to you
But when I come home to you


I find the things that you do
I discover the things that you do


Will make feel al right
That make me feel better and happy


You know i work
You know that I work hard
