Graveyard Shift Lyrics

Hometown, same town blues

Same old walls closing in

Oh what a life a mess can be

I'm sitting here thinking of you, won't you give

A few thoughts to me

Well, time won't wait, better open the gate

Get up and start what needs to be done

It's winding down, there's much you missed

Working on that graveyard shift

Well, I'm not saying there's nothing wrong as the day comes along

If what I see is true I could learn to believe

Can't look away

The powers that be might take it all away

Together we burn, together we burn away

Some say a land of paradise

Some say a land of pain

Well, which side are you looking from

Some people have it all

Some all to gain

Well a man in a tie gonna break his twenty dollar bill

There's plenty of reasons in this world Uncle Tupelo - Graveyard Shift - http://motolyrics.com/uncle-tupelo/graveyard-shift-lyrics.html

To sit around or stand there still

But I'm not saying there's nothing wrong as the day comes along

If what I see is true I could learn to believe

Can't look away

The powers that be might take it all away

Together we burn, together we burn away

There's too much time spent looking for a reason

It's the simple ones that beat the most truth

Oh, what a life a mess can be

I'm sitting here thinking of you, won't you give

A few thoughts to me

Well, time won't wait, better open the gate

Get up and start what needs to be done

It's running down, there's much you missed

Working on that graveyard shift

But I'm not saying there's nothing wrong as the day comes along

If what I see is true I could learn to believe

Can't look away

The powers that be might take it all away

Together we burn, together we burn away
