Well if you see ol' Annie, better give her a lift
 
 'Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
 
 If Annie puts her hair up on her head
 
 Paints them lips up bright bright red
 
 Wears that dress that fits real tight
 
 Starts stayin' out late till the middle of the night
 
 Says to her friend, give her a lift
 
 Well Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
 
 If she acts a little funny, seems a little strange
 
 Starts spending your money for brand new things
 
 Tells you that she wants to use the car
 
 Never explains what she wants it for
 
 Brother, there just ain't no ifs
 
 'Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
 
 
 Well early in the morning when the sun comes up
 
 You look at ol' Annie and she looks kinda rough
 
 You tell her, honey get out of that bed
 
 She says, leave me alone I'm just about dead
 
 Brother, there just ain't no ifs
 
 'Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
 
 
 If you got a good mama that's stayin' at home
 
 You better enjoy, 'cause it won't last long
 
 When you think everything's all right
 
 She starts slippin' round in the middle of the night
 
 Brother, there just ain't no ifs
 
 'Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift
