Midnight Shifter |
| You do your time, toe the line |
| Wading thru the water heading for the wine |
| Throw your pearls for swine, break your spine |
| You’ll never reach a hundred doin' 99 |
| You gotta lift your chin to see what comes up ahead |
| Before the casket slams shut and the fat lady’s dead |
| But if I do do all I can |
| Tomorrow comes a chance |
| And if I do do all I don’t |
| There’s no reason it won’t |
| I’m gonna sit right down, I’m gonna count to four |
| So hand it over a couple million or more! |
| Said I know you gotta work hard, working hard every day |
| Midnight shifter |
| I know you gotta work hard, working hard every way |
| Midnight shifter |
| Surprise surprise, I got wise |
| When you get up in the morning I just close my eyes |
| No dos or dies are worth the price |
| Cause once you hit the floor they cut you down to size |
| No don’t get me wrong we could be one in the same |
| But there’s a difference in the way that we’re playin' the game |
| Never let no one be no boss over me You work in chains, but my thinking is free |
| Cause if I do do all I can |
| Tomorrow comes a chance |
| And if I do do all I don’t |
| There’s no reason it won’t |
| I’m gonna sit right down, I’m gonna count to four |
| So hand it over a couple million or more! |
| Said I know you gotta work hard, working hard every day |
| Midnight shifter |
| I know you gotta work hard, working hard every way |
| Midnight shifter |
