Recorded in 1956.
(Capo 1st fret.)
INTRO:
EWell, if you see old Annie, better give her a lift..
Cause AAnnie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift.
#1.
AIf Annie puts her hair up on her head,
Dpaints them lips up bright, bright red,
Awears that dress that fits real tight,
starts Dstayin' out till the middle of the night..
ESays that a friend give her a lift..
Well, AAnnie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift.
#2.
AIf she acts a little funny, seems a little strange,
Dstarts spendin' your money for brand new things.
ATells you that she wants to use the car,
Dnever explains what she wants it for.
EBrother, there just ain't no 'ifs,'
cause AAnnie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift.
CHORUS:
Well, Dearly in the morning when the sun comes up,
you Alook at old Annie and she looks kinda rough.
You tell Dher, honey, get out of that bed..
She says, 'ALeave me alone, I'm just about dead.'
EBrother, there just ain't no 'ifs,'
cause AAnnie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift.
#3.
AIf you got a good Mama that's stayin' at home,
Dyou better enjoy it, cause it won't last long.
AWhen you think everything's all right,
she Dstarts slippin' 'round in the middle of the night.
EBrother, there just ain't no 'ifs,'
cause AAnnie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift.
A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
