Midnight Shift Lyrics

[00:05.48] Well, if you see old Annie, better give her a lift
[00:10.06] 'Cause Annie's been a workin' on a midnight shift
[00:11.83] If Annie puts her hair up on her head
[00:15.53] Paints them lips up bright, bright red
[00:18.24] Wears that dress that fits real tight
[00:20.97] Starts stayin' out 'til the middle of the night
[00:24.15] Says that a friend gave her a lift
[00:26.89] Well, Annie's been a workin' on a midnight shift
[00:29.78] If she acts a little funny, seems a little strange
[00:32.53] Starts spendin' your money for brand new things
[00:35.76] Tells you that she wants to use the car
[00:38.40] Never explains what she wants it for
[00:41.17] Brother, there just ain't no 'Ifs'
[00:44.08] 'Cause Annie's been a workin' on a midnight shift
[00:47.91]
[00:52.91] Well, early in the morning when the sun comes up
[00:57.30]
[01:06.97] You look at old Annie and she looks kinda rough
[01:09.50] You tell her, "Honey, get on out of that bed!"
[01:12.25] She says, "Leave me alone, I'm just about dead."
[01:15.34] Brother, there just ain't no 'Ifs'
[01:18.56] 'Cause Annie's been a workin' on a midnight shift
[01:22.49]
[01:29.07] If you got a good mama that's stayin' at home
[01:33.40]
[01:41.07] You'd better enjoy it 'cause it won't last long
[01:43.74] When you think everything's all right
[01:46.47] She starts slippin' round in the middle of the night
[01:49.67] Brother, there just ain't no 'Ifs'
[01:52.68] 'Cause Annie's been a workin' on a midnight shift
[01:54.57]
