Marvin, he was a friend of mine
|
And he could sing a song
|
His heart in every line
|
Marvin sang of the joy and pain
|
He opened up our minds
|
And I still can hear him say
|
Aw talk to me so you can see
|
What's going on
|
Say you will sing your songs
|
Forevermore (evermore)
|
|
Gonna be some sweet sounds
|
Coming down on the nightshift
|
I bet you're singing proud
|
Oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
|
Gonna be a long night
|
It's gonna be all right
|
On the nightshift
|
Oh you found another home
|
I know you're not alone
|
On the nightshift
|
|
Jackie (Jackie), hey what'you doing now
|
It seems like yesterday
|
When we were working out
|
Jackie (Jackie, oh) you set
|
The world on fire
|
You came and gifted us
|
Your love it lifted us
|
Higher and higher
|
Keep it up and
|
We'll be there
|
At your side
|
Oh say you will sing
|
Your songs forevermore (evermore)
|
|
Gonna be some sweet sounds
|
Coming down on the nightshift
|
I bet you're singing proud
|
Oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
|
Gonna be a long night
|
It's gonna be all right
|
On the nightshift
|
Oh you found another home
|
I know you're not alone
|
On the nightshift
|
|
Gonna miss your sweet voice
|
That soulful voice
|
On the nightshift
|
We all remember you
|
Ooh the songs are coming through
|
At the end of a long day
|
It's gonna be okay
|
On the nightshift
|
You found another home
|
I know you're not alone
|
On the nightshift
|
