Damn I hope no one dies on this night shift tonight
|
Always lit up like a Roman candle
|
Everybody comes in like they're looking for a fight
|
I'll have to tell his family as he rides off to Heaven
|
Then twenty minutes later I'm drinking my coffee down at the Seven Eleven
|
I'm workin'
|
Yeah I'm workin'
|
|
All these truckers out here drive with one hand on the wheel and a cell phone to their ear
|
Apologizing for something they missed or can't get to I'm sorry to my dear
|
Yeah but that's the way it goes and we sure need the money
|
This life of ours is far from perfect ain't it honey
|
But I'm workin'
|
Baby I'm workin'
|
|
So make the kids do their homework before you put 'em to bed
|
And there's dinner in the fridge make sure everybody gets fed
|
And I know I won't get to see you before you leave for your day
|
I guess it's the only time that we get to say 'I love you'
|
Baby I love you
|
|
Show the last kids on the school bus as I lay me down to sleep
|
And I keep hurrying and worrying and wondering and praying
|
For all my soul can keep
|
I know I couldn't do it if you weren't there
|
There'd be no home to come home to no reason to care
|
|
So I just had to call you before I faded away
|
I guess it's the only time that we get to say 'I love you'
|
Baby I love you
|
|
I love you
|
I love you
|
|
Damn I hope no one dies on this night shift tonight
