Ohh. This is just for me. Kick off my shoes and relax my feet Hit the kitchen grab a bite to eat It's been one of those crazy weeks And I gotta do something special for me See, hit the salon get a mani and a pedi Have a massage, get a sip and then I'm ready Gotta take time out And my real ladies know what I'm talking about Sing. Oooooooh, baby baby You don't know what I've been going through Sing it again now. Oooooooh, baby baby It's obvious to see exactly what I need One of those days When the sun is shining bright And my life is going right And the simple things are not wasted One of those days When you're cruising in your car And you're out to see the stars And it's warm outside and beautiful Tonight, it's all about me Just wanna set my body free Never mind the TV Tonight I'll just let a little TV watch me Light the candles, aroma therapy Hot tub bubbles surrounding me Mr. Big is in the background The Isley Brothers gonna hold it down sing One of those days When the sun is shining bright And my life is going right And the simple things are not wasted One of those days When you're cruising in your car And you're out to see the stars And it's warm outside and beautiful Singing hello hello I need one of those days You don't know what Warm and beautiful
