Midnight Shift:Buddy Holly. Recorded in 1956. (Capo 1st fret.) INTRO: E Well, if you see old Annie, better give her a lift.. A Cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift. #1. A If Annie puts her hair up on her head, D paints them lips up bright, bright red, A wears that dress that fits real tight, D starts stayin' out till the middle of the night.. E Says that a friend give her a lift.. A Well, Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift. #2. A If she acts a little funny, seems a little strange, D starts spendin' your money for brand new things. A Tells you that she wants to use the car, D never explains what she wants it for. E Brother, there just ain't no 'ifs,' A cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift. CHORUS: D Well, early in the morning when the sun comes up, A you look at old Annie and she looks kinda rough. D You tell her, honey, get out of that bed.. A She says, 'Leave me alone, I'm just about dead.' E Brother, there just ain't no 'ifs,' A cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift. #3. A If you got a good Mama that's stayin' at home, D you better enjoy it, cause it won't last long. A When you think everything's all right, D she starts slippin' 'round in the middle of the night. E Brother, there just ain't no 'ifs,' A cause Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift. A fifties smash from Kraziekhat.
