Lyrics:
My mother told me
Someday I would buy
Galleys with good oars
Sails to distant shores
Stand up high in the prow
Noble barque I steer
Steady course for
moves behind me
She leaves her fingerprints everywhere
Every time the snow drifts, every time the sand shifts
Even when the night lifts, she's always
I'm on a night shift, aye
Homie's look back they
On a, on a night shift, on a
I'm on a night shift, aye
Homies looking back they say
Hurry up, we
Usher of the tide
Illuminates the night
Revealed by the light
Such a grand sight
Its sacred hold
Of stories untold
From young to old
As the Earth
at the oars
G#7 C#m
Or staring from the rail
E -A B7
And the sea bids farewell
G#m
She waves in swells
overtime
Baby, can you work it
Can you work the night shift
It's not the way that you talk that stuff
To my left ear, honey
It's not the way that you
on
I left the village behind in the night
To fade like a sail in the darkening seas
The shifts and changes in the patterns of life
Will weather it
tricks on me
It likes to shift gears
Spend lots of money
But I'm tackling my fears
[Chorus]
Vampires, mummies and the holy ghost
These are
the day shift
I'm working the night
It takes it all and more
How long has it been since we made love
I miss what we had before
Baby hold on 'til Sunday
the city up
As if the sun had the night shift
And paint the town red for my nigga found dead too soon
(Bitch, I'm back out-)
Yeah
To the left of that
from the day I was born
I was workin' on the night shift, tootin' my horn
Through sheets of rain, through sleet and storm
You come to me
You were
out the way
Black reason
Dark night today
Black season
Shift down to stay
No reason
Logic overplayed
Next season
Shift on
Shift
down here and stood by me
And look at me like you knew me
But I feel so alone
Like I don't know anyone but the night sky above
Yeah, you're lookin'
If Young Metro don't trust you I'mma shoot you
Last night took an L, but tonight I bounce back
Wake up every morning, by the night, I count
Sing him to the shore
By day their oars became their mantra, at night they camped along the way
Shared music round the fire with folks from Wales
of the late night shifts
You see me
She trying to be in the club twerkin, twerkin, twerkin
All up on this dick (ooh)
Yeah, so Mr. Manager
This is my two weeks
Subway
Almost four a.m.
Halloween night
Had enough to drink to make my own party
All my fellow writers in half costume, half asleep
Half silly, gone
type, been out here
She been losin' herself to the night shift
She been losin' herself, and I get it, oh, girl, yeah, I get it
Yeah, yeah, you've been
गङ्गायाश्चापि सन्तारं भरद्वाजस्य दर्शनम्
भरद्वाजाभ्यनुज्ञानाच्चित्रकूटस्य दर्शनम्
Guha's oar strokes, a funky beat
Rama, Lakshmana, Sita by his side
Leaving
of the crctic night
Whispers of the old gods ignite
By firelight, our path alight
Bound for lands beyond our sight
gal?
She does the cutest tricks,
With her six stereo ears.
When she walks by, spacemen cry,
'Specially when she shifts her gears.
If she's
shift, push it to the up and right
We've been waiting but we're next in line
When the city shines like the sun at night
And I feel it in my heart, in my
The bartender's working on a late night shift
Cheap bums and blondes and barmaids on a midnight drift.
And the dance band's playing the same old
You could come and work me over, baby, on the night shift
Catch me on the night shift, see how freaky I get (okay, okay, okay)
When they talk about
