  • Yeah
    You know what it is
    It's your man Travie
    Gym Class Heroes
    Kelly Rowland
    Oh, so beautiful
    Baby girl, stay up all night
    Nocturnal, show 'em how we do
    Here we go!
    Oh!

    It's five o'clock AM
    And the party is still goin' strong
    There's a conversation in the corner
    Tell a friend, bring everyone (c'mon, let's go)
    'Cause the FM music is grooving
    Folks gettin' down, getting dow' in
    Their stocking feet
    Sleepy eyes are peepin' (they're watching, baby)
    From the window across the street

    And it looks like daylight's gonna get me up again
    (Damn right, and I'm lovin' every minute)
    Most people like gettin' up when I'm just gettin' in
    (Yeah, I'll be back in three days like Paris's jail sentence)
    And oh, it's the only, only time
    It's the only time when I can unwind

    I swore to myself time and time again
    That I would give up the night life (yeah right)
    Start laying in (yeah, I feel you)
    But it isn't easy, no, no (no, no, no)
    Saying no to my friends (that's right)
    'Cause the real, 'cause the real set don't get started (uh-huh)
    'Til everyone else is in

    And it looks like daylight's gonna get me up again
    (Damn right, and I'm lovin' every minute)
    Most people like gettin' up when I'm just gettin' in
    (Yeah, I'll be back in three days like Paris's jail sentence)
    And oh, it's the only, only time
    Said, It's the only time when I can unwind (it's the only time)

    Hello world, hey, good morning sunshine
    Great to see you again
    Homie, I'm doin' fine
    Chasing daydreams, you know still pursuing mine
    Sleep is so foreign, TV is so boring
    New York is New York
    Travie is still alive
    The freaks come out at night like a vampire
    Nocturnal lurking
    Nocturnals, the daylight creeps up

    And it looks like daylight's gonna get me up again (oh again)
    (Damn right, and I'm loving every minute)
    Most people like gettin' up when I'm just gettin' in (I'm just gettin' in)
    (Yeah, I'll be back in three days like Paris's jail sentence)
    Daylight's (daylight) gonna get me up again (catch me again)
    And oh, it's the only only time
    (Damn right, and I'm loving every minute)
    Most people like getting up when I'm just gettin' in

    This is to my cousin Beyonce
    This is to my best friend Michelle
    I love you all
