I?m coming in your headed out
You sure look fine you leave your sent on my mind
You?re strutting down our front sidewalk
Why don?t you stop baby, I just want to talk
Ankle straps and 3 inch heels
Tight silk dress, but nothing else
What?s at work, where you going to?
Dressed for love honey, what you planning to do?
Chorus
I can?t take this life anymore
always wondering where you are
Long hard hours trying to raise the bar
Working the nightshift
Ah baby I?ve been working the Night Shift
You work all day I work all night,
We just can?t seem to get our timing right
Lay awake in the morning light
Reminds me of our youth gone by
Remember when we didn?t have a dime
I said quit school and I was just a fool
Told you to chase that dream
You?ll be a star and then we?ll both go far
I can?t take this life anymore
always wondering where you are
Long hard hours trying to raise the bar
Working the nightshift
Ah baby tell me who?s been working that Night Shift?
I?ll Rob a bank, hit the ATM,
Beg on the street corner to show my love again
I?ll get the money, we?ll start again,
I can be as good as him
What will it take to get you back?
Who are you now? Show me where I stand
Who?s working the Night Shift now?
Where?s that value baby you?re going to have to show me now
I can?t take this life anymore
Always wondering where you are
Long hard hours trying to raise the bar
Working that nightshift
Ah Baby who be working that Night Shift now
