[Verse 1] |
|
Marvin, he was a friend of mine |
|
And he could sing a song, his heart in every line |
|
Marvin sang of the joy and pain |
|
He opened up our minds, and I still can hear him say |
|
"Aw talk to me, so you can see, what's going on" |
|
Say you will sing your songs forevermore |
|
[Refrain] |
|
Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the nightshift |
|
I bet you're singing proud, I bet you'll pull a crowd |
|
Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the nightshift |
|
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift |
|
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
Jackie, hey what'you doing now? |
|
It seems like yesterday when we were working out |
|
Jackie, you set the world on fire |
|
You came and gifted us, your love it lifted us higher and higher |
|
Keep it up and we'll be there at your side |
|
Say you will sing your songs forevermore |
|
[Refrain] |
|
Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the nightshift |
|
I bet you're singing proud, I bet you'll pull a crowd |
|
Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the nightshift |
|
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift |
|
Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down on the nightshift |
|
I bet you're singing proud, I bet you'll pull a crowd |
|
Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right, on the nightshift |
|
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift |
|
Gonna miss your sweet voice, that soulful voice, on the nightshift |
|
We all remember you, your songs are coming through |
|
And at the end of a long day, it's gonna be okay, on the nightshift |
|
You found another home, I know you're not alone, on the nightshift |
