VERSE 1 I'll be working on the graveyard shift, Until I die. Workin' so hard to get by Slingin' that hash, Picking up trash Lord knows I really need the cash Working on the graveyard shift Until I die.
VERSE 2 When my shift is done, I come home bleary-eyed. With the porch light on And the sun is on the rise. Pull down the shades Sleep all day Get up about evening time I’ll be working at the graveyard shift Until I die.
CHORUS Working on the graveyard shift Until I die. I can't get out no matter how I try. I guess it must be something down deep inside, That keeps me working on the graveyard shift Until I die.
VERSE 3 Grab a bite to eat and make it to work by 10, Throw my apron on to do it all over again Slingin' that hash, Picking up trash Lord knows I really bust my ass Working on the graveyard shift Until I die.
I’ll be working on the graveyard shift, If you see me don’t forget to tip, Working on the graveyard shift…until I die.
