lyrics

Work all night and I sleep all day
Got mouths to feed and bills to pay
Days off I'm turnin' wrench on my old Ford
Truck's got more miles than a roadhouse whore
Hate the grind, but I'm used to it
I work the night shift
I work the night shift
I work the night shift
I work the night shift

Married my high-school sweetheart in '05
Swore together forever 'til the day we died
Built a two storey house on her daddy's land
Still got callouses on my hands
Haven't lived there in years, but I pay for it
I work the night shift
I work the night shift
I work the night shift
I work the night shift

Bust my ass for a family I never see
Work overtime six days a week
Spill my sweat and blood on the factory floor
And owe my soul to the devil and the bank on 4th

Wasn't for my kids, I'd probably quit
I work the night shift
I work the night shift
I work the night shift
I work the night shift

I work the night shift
I work the night shift
It's all bullshit
I work the night shift

Fast forward to 2020. Sterling digs even deeper in the creative dirt for Dark Horses: The Acoustic Sessions. A sparse collection – one guitar/one voice.
