You do your time, tow the line
Wading through the water, heading for the wine
Throw your pearls for swine, break your spine
You'll never reach a hundred doing 99
You gotta lift your chin to see what comes up ahead
Before the casket slams shut and the fat lady's dead
But if I do, do all I can, tomorrow comes a chance
And if I do, do all I don't, there's no reason it won't
I'm gonna sit right down, I'm gonna count to four
So hand it over a couple million or more
Said I know you gotta work hard
Working hard every day, midnight shifter
Said I know you gotta work hard
Working hard every day, midnight shifter
Surprise, surprise, I got wise
When you get up in the morning I just close my eyes
No do's or die's are worth the price
'Cause once you hit the floor they cut you down to size
No, don't get me wrong, we could be one in the same
But there's a difference in the way that we're playing the game
Never let no one be no boss over me
You work in chain but my thinking is free
'Cause if I do, do all I can, tomorrow comes a chance
And if I do, do all I don't, there's no reason it won't
I'm gonna sit right down, I'm gonna count to four
So hand it over a couple million or more
Said I know you gotta work hard
Working hard every day, midnight shifter
Said I know you gotta work hard
Working hard every day, midnight shifter
Wading through the water, heading for the wine
Throw your pearls for swine, break your spine
You'll never reach a hundred doing 99
You gotta lift your chin to see what comes up ahead
Before the casket slams shut and the fat lady's dead
But if I do, do all I can, tomorrow comes a chance
And if I do, do all I don't, there's no reason it won't
I'm gonna sit right down, I'm gonna count to four
So hand it over a couple million or more
Said I know you gotta work hard
Working hard every day, midnight shifter
Said I know you gotta work hard
Working hard every day, midnight shifter
Surprise, surprise, I got wise
When you get up in the morning I just close my eyes
No do's or die's are worth the price
'Cause once you hit the floor they cut you down to size
No, don't get me wrong, we could be one in the same
But there's a difference in the way that we're playing the game
Never let no one be no boss over me
You work in chain but my thinking is free
'Cause if I do, do all I can, tomorrow comes a chance
And if I do, do all I don't, there's no reason it won't
I'm gonna sit right down, I'm gonna count to four
So hand it over a couple million or more
Said I know you gotta work hard
Working hard every day, midnight shifter
Said I know you gotta work hard
Working hard every day, midnight shifter
