A Hard Day's Night
The Supremes Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's been a hard day's night

And I've been working like a dog

It's been a hard day's night

I should be sleeping like a log
But when I get home to you

I find the things that you do

Will make me feel all right

You know I work all day

To get you money to buy you things

And it's worth it just to hear you say

"You're gonna give me everything"

So why on earth should I moan?

'Cause when I get you alone

You know I feel all right

When I'm home

Everything seems to be right

When I'm home

Feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeah

It's been a hard day's night

And I've been working like a dog

It's been a hard day's night

I should be sleeping like a log

But when I get home to you

I find the things that you do

Will make me feel okay, oh!

So why on earth should I moan?

'Cause when I get you alone

You know I feel all right

When I'm home

Everything seems to be right

When I'm home

Feeling you holding me tight, tight, yeah

It's been a hard day's night

And I've been working like a dog

It's been a hard day's night

I should be sleeping like a log

But when I get home to you

I find the things that you do

Will make me feel all right

You know I feel all right





You know I feel all right
