Night Shift Songtext
von Lonesome Wyatt and the Holy Spooks

Moonlight, moonlight
I′m begging you to swallow me
I'm giving up the fight tonight

There is laughter in the raindrops
There is weeping in the wind
I am watching from your closet
As you fall in love with him

Things are never as you plan them
Life is never what you pray
It is always so disappointing
When you wake up everyday

Moonlight, moonlight
I′m begging you to swallow me
I'm giving up the fight tonight


I picked you poison ivy
Made a big antique bouquet
You said you'd meet me at the dancehall
So I waited there all day

Now the stars up there in heaven
Look as lonely as can be
But I swear that they′re not half as
Lost and lonesome as me

Moonlight, moonlight
I′m begging you to swallow me
I'm giving up the fight tonight

Now I sit here with my hammer
And a battered, bloody eye
Put the claw end to my forehead
It′s so hard to say goodbye

Moonlight, moonlight
I'm begging you to swallow me
I′m giving up the fight tonight
