I'm just a working girl,
Just earning a living
When the city's waking up,
I'm going home
Working the midnight shift
While my friends are all out
They've all gone out dancing
They're out having fun
Working that midnight shift
For that extra little something
The things that are out of my reach
I need so bad
So bad, (midnight shift)
So bad (midnight shift)
Seems like I'm always leaving
When all the others arrive
My body still carries on
But I'm dying inside
Working the midnight shift
