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 our minds,
and I still can hear him say
Aw talk to me
so you can see
what's going on
Say you will
sing your songs
forevermore (evermore)

Gonna be some sweet sounds
coming down
on the nightshift
I bet you're singing proud,
oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night,
it's gonna be all right
on the nightshift
Oh you found another home,
I know you're not alone
on the nightshift

Oh you found another home,
I know you're not alone
on the nightshift

Jackie (Jackie),
hey whatcha doing now
It seems like yesterday
when we were working out
Jackie (Jackie, oh)
you set the world on fire
You came and gifted us,
your love it lifted us
higher and higher
Keep it up
and we'll be there
at your side
Oh say you will
sing your songs
forevermore (evermore)

Gonna be some sweet sounds
coming down
on the nightshift
I bet you're singing proud,
oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night,
it's gonna be all right
on the nightshift
Oh you found another home,
I know you're not alone
on the nightshift

Gonna be some sweet sounds
coming down
on the nightshift
I bet you're singing proud,
oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night,
it's gonna be all right
on the nightshift
Oh you found another home,
I know you're not alone
on the nightshift
