Lyrics
Oh
Expression of surprise or realization
What you lookin' at now baby?
Asking someone what they're observing or contemplating
Won't you use your mind, oh
Encouraging someone to think or use their mind
I been on a long ride, baby
Metaphorical reference to a long journey or experience
Can't do a sober drive, no
Unable to drive sober, implying a need for escapism or altered states
Found love in November nights
Finding love or contentment in colder, quieter times
Cold weather in the winter time, oh, woah
Describing the cold weather of winter, symbolizing hardship
Guess you know when the time is right
Recognition of the right moment or opportunity
Let's go on a little joyride, oh
Suggesting a spontaneous, carefree adventure
Living life la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Repetition emphasizing the carefree attitude towards life
Living life la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Living life la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Living life la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Tell me what you lookin' at baby?
Reiterating the question about observation or interest in someone
Been in this club for a long time, no
Spending a prolonged time in a certain place or situation
Need another shot now baby (la, la)
Expressing a need for more excitement or stimulation
Roll another joint, let go
Escaping reality by indulging in substances
I been rock and rollin' with my ex (living)
Referencing a past relationship, possibly tumultuous but intense
We be gettin' closer to the x (living)
-We be always poppin' like the ex (living)
-Crossin' out the haters with the x (living)
-Living life la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Continuing the repetition of carefree living
Living life la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Living life la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Living life la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Tell me what you're lookin' at, oh (la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Reiteration of inviting someone for an adventurous journey
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Let's go on a little joyride, oh (la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
-Let's go on a little joyride (la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la)
Encouraging to embark on a carefree, adventurous journey
Let's go on a little, on a little
-Whoa
-Let's go on a little joyride
-Don't watch me
Repetition of "Don't watch me" suggesting a desire for freedom from scrutiny or judgment
Don't watch me
-Don't watch me
-Don't watch me
-Don't watch me
-Don't watch me
-Don't watch me
-Don't stop lookin' at me
-Livin' life, la, la, la
Continued emphasis on living life without inhibitions or restrictions
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Livin' life, la, la, la (free my inhibitions in the seasons)
-La, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Livin' life, la, la, la (this is what adventure's made of)
-La, la, la, la, la, la, la
-La, la, la, la, la, la, la
-La, la, la, la, la, la, la
-La, la, la, la, la, la, la
-Ain't lookin' back on the old me
Rejecting the past and moving forward
No more waitin' 'round for a sign
Not waiting for external signals or validation
'Cause my life is mine
Embracing personal agency and ownership of one's life
Livin' life
Summarizing life as a joyride, an adventure to be enjoyed
It's a joyride
