Lyrics
[Intro]
It's alright with me
[Verse 1]
New York City 'round a quarter to 9
Some money in my pocket and I'm relatively fine
Because I look real good, a walkin' Hollywood
So I go motivatin' to a boujie neighborhood
Where all the talent there is posin' and they're all blowin' nosin'
And supposin' that's alright with me
But things get cookin' and she's so good-lookin'
That I sacrifice morality
[Chorus]
And I'm gonna be up all night
I'll be burnin' bright
Till the morning light
Yeah, I can keep it up all night
[Verse 2]
And now my brain pan is steamin' and I'm simmerin' red
A belly full of demons and a pounding in my head
And yet I don't look back, yeah, I get her in the sack
But I'm out of conversation and I'm starting to lose track
And she says, "Sonny, honey, don't forget my money
You pay for this ability"
And I said, "It's no exaggeration, I'm an overnight sensation
Girl, you should be payin' me"
[Chorus]
'Cause I can keep it up all night
You better treat me right
Until the morning light
I can keep it up all night
[Bridge]
So word gets 'round and my legend starts to grow
'Cause all over town, it seems that everybody knows
[Chorus]
I keep it up all night
Till the morning light
I'll be burnin' bright
Yeah, I can keep it up all night
