Graveyard Shift — Uncle Tupelo: текст песни

Hometown, same town blues Same old walls closing in Oh what a life a mess can be I'm sitting here thinking of you once again Won't you talk 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 We're no longer standing 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 once again Give a thought 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
