Lyrics of Play Hard (feat. Ne-Yo & Akon) by David Guetta, Ne-Yo, Akon

chorus

Hey, said a hustler′s work is never through
We making it 'cause we make it move
The only thing we know how to do
Said it′s the only thing we know how to do
Work hard, play hard
Work hard, play hard
We work hard, play hard
Keep partying like it's your job
Work hard, play hard
Work hard, play hard
We work hard, play hard
Keep partying like it's your job, eh

verse

Come on, baby, and drop it
(Okay)
Scrub the floor or just mop it
(Okay)
Show these gangsters how you pop lock it
(Okay)
Don′t care what you got in your pocket
(Okay)
I peep the way that you rocking
Flip that thang, thang, don′t stop it
Wanna just bang, bang and pop it
While the club crowded just watch you
(Work it out)

chorus

Got a gang of cash, and it's going all on the bar
(Now work it out)
And it′s going fast 'cause I feel like a superstar
(Now work it out)
And you may not have it
I might have just broke the law
(Now work it out)
It′s your turn to grab it
Now make this whole thing yours
(Now work it out)
Hey, said a hustler's work is never through
We making it ′cause we make it move
The only thing we know how to do
Said it's the only thing we know how to do
Work hard, play hard
Work hard, play hard
We work hard, play hard
Keep partying like it's your job
Work hard, play hard
Work hard, play hard
We work hard, play hard
Keep partying like it′s your job, eh

verse

I′m fresh to death lookin' plush
(Okay)
Ladies can′t get enough
(Okay)
Got my fitness on, lookin' buff
(Okay)
And all my people with me, I trust
(Okay)
Holding down for my city
If they asking you, I′m not guilty
Only thing that I'm guilty of
Is making you rock with me
(Work it out)

chorus

Got a gang of cash, and it′s going all on the bar
(Now work it out)
And it's going fast 'cause I feel like a superstar
(Now work it out)
And you may not have it
I might have just broke the law
(Now work it out)
It′s your turn to grab it
Now make this whole thing yours
(Now work it out)
Hey, said a hustler′s work is never through
We making it 'cause we make it move
The only thing we know how to do
Said it′s the only thing we know how to do
Work hard, play hard
Work hard, play hard
We work hard, play hard
Keep partying like it's your job
Work hard, play hard
Work hard, play hard
We work hard, play hard
Keep partying like it′s your job, eh
Hey, said a hustler's work is never through
We making it ′cause we make it move
The only thing we know how to do
Said it's the only thing we know how to do
Work hard, play hard
Work hard, play hard
We work hard, play hard
Keep partying like it's your job
Work hard, play hard
Work hard, play hard
We work hard, play hard
Keep partying like it′s your job, eh
