Beatles : " A Hard Day's Night" Lyrics (Among the Best Movie Soundtracks)

Beatles - A Hard Day's Night

"A Hard Day's Night" lyrics

by the Beatles

A Hard Day's Night Film (1964) Soundtrack

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

Paul (Beatles) 1962

So why on earth should I moan

'cause when I get you alone

You know I feel okay

When I'm home

everything seems to be all 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, Oh!

So why on earth should I moan

'cause when I get you alone

You know I feel okay

When I'm home

Everything seems to be all right

when I'm home

feeling you holding me tight

all through the night

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

     The song featured prominently on the soundtrack to The Beatles' first feature film, A Hard Day's Night, and was on their album of the same name. The song topped the charts in both the United Kingdom and United States when it was released as a single. Featuring a prominent and unique opening chord, the song's success demonstrated that The Beatles were not a one-hit wonder in the US. The American and British singles of "A Hard Day's Night" as well as both the American and British albums of the same title all held the top position in their respective charts for a couple of weeks in August 1964, the first time any artist had done this.
     In 1965, "A Hard Day's Night" won The Beatles the Grammy Award for Best Performance by a Vocal Group. In 2004, this song was ranked number 153 on Rolling Stone's list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". (source: Wikipedia)
