Well if you see ol' Annie, better give her a lift
|
'Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
|
If Annie puts her hair up on her head
|
Paints them lips up bright bright red
|
Wears that dress that fits real tight
|
Starts stayin' out late till the middle of the night
|
Says to her friend, give her a lift
|
Well Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
|
If she acts a little funny, seems a little strange
|
Starts spending your money for brand new things
|
Tells you that she wants to use the car
|
Never explains what she wants it for
|
Brother, there just ain't no ifs
|
'Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
|
|
Well early in the morning when the sun comes up
|
You look at ol' Annie and she looks kinda rough
|
You tell her, honey get out of that bed
|
She says, leave me alone I'm just about dead
|
Brother, there just ain't no ifs
|
'Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
|
|
If you got a good mama that's stayin' at home
|
You better enjoy, 'cause it won't last long
|
When you think everything's all right
|
She starts slippin' round in the middle of the night
|
Brother, there just ain't no ifs
|
'Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
|
