Midnight Shift Lyrics

Artist: Buddy Holly
Album: Forever 22

If you see old Annie better give her a lift
cause Annieâ‚¬â„¢s been a-workin on a 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 stayinâ‚¬â„¢ out 'til the middle of the night
says that a friend gave her a lift
well, Annieâ‚¬â„¢s been workinâ‚¬â„¢ on a midnight shift

If she acts a little funny - seems a little strange
starts spendinâ‚¬â„¢ 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 ainâ‚¬â„¢t no â‚¬Å“ifsâ‚¬?
cause Annieâ‚¬â„¢s been workinâ‚¬â„¢ on a midnight shift

Early in the morning when the sun comes up
you look at old Annie and she looks kinda rough
you tell her â‚¬Å“honey, get on out of that bedâ‚¬?
she says â‚¬Å“leave me alone - Iâ‚¬â„¢m just about deadâ‚¬?
brother, there just ainâ‚¬â„¢t no â‚¬Å“ifsâ‚¬?
cause Annieâ‚¬â„¢s been workinâ‚¬â„¢ on a midnight shift

If you got a good mama thatâ‚¬â„¢s stayinâ‚¬â„¢ at home
youâ‚¬â„¢d better enjoy it - cause it wonâ‚¬â„¢t last long
when you think everythingâ‚¬â„¢s all right
she starts slippinâ‚¬â„¢ round in the middle of the night
brother, there just ainâ‚¬â„¢t no â‚¬Å“ifsâ‚¬?
cause Annieâ‚¬â„¢s been workinâ‚¬â„¢ on a midnight shift
