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 my mind

And I still can

hear him say

Oh talk to me

So you can see

what’s goin’ on

Say you will

sing your songs

for evermore, evermore

Gonna be some

sweet sounds

Comin’ down

on the nightshift

I bet you’re singing proud

Oh I bet you’ll pull a crowd

Gonna be a long night

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

Jackie, hmmm...

Hey, what you doing now

It seems like yesterday

When we were working out

Jackie, hmmm...

You set the world on fire

You came and gifted us

Your love has lifted us

Higher and higher

Keep it up

and we’ll be there

at your side

Oh say you will

sing your songs

for evermore, evermore

Gonna be some

sweet sounds

Comin’ down

on the nightshift

I bet you’re singing proud

I bet you’ll pull a crowd

It’s gonna be a long night

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

Comin’ down

on the nightshift

I bet you’re singing proud

I bet you’ll pull a crowd

It’s gonna be a long night

Gonna be all right

on the nightshift

You found another home

I bet you’re not alone
