lyrics

SWING SHIFT

I get into my car
Turn up the radio
On the four o’clock shift
Right up to midnight
Will I get to see my women?
Before I hit the sack
Living like two strangers
Passing in the night

Creeping around on my tip toes
Every creek
I’m in trouble

I get home feeling dirty and rough
I just got rolled in from another swing shift
Take off my boots yea I’m ready to drop
Come Saturday night
I’ll be ready to rock
Oh yea

Socially trapped
See you at the weekend
By the end of the month
I feel battered and drained
Dont get to see my women
Strangers in the night
Don’t get to eat together
Lost my appetite

Feels like I’m walking on hot coals
She wakes up
I’m in trouble

I get home feeling dirty and rough
I just got rolled in from another swing shift
Take off my boots yea I’m ready to drop
Come Saturday night
I’ll be ready to rock
Oh yea

I get home feeling dirty and rough
I just got rolled in from another swing shift
Take off my boots yea I’m ready to drop
Come Saturday night
I’ll be ready to rock
Oh yea

I get home / he gets home
Dirty and rough / dirty and rough
Take off my boots / takes off his boots
I’m ready to drop / he’s ready to drop
I get home / he gets home
Dirty and rough / dirty and rough
Take off my boot’s yea / takes off his boots
Come Saturday night
I’ll be ready to rock
Oh yea
