A D
Now my boss don’t dig me ‘cause he put me on the night shift
A F#m
It takes me two hours to get back to where my baby lives
A D
In the wee wee hours your mind gets hazy
A F#m
Relay towers, won’t you lead me to my baby
A D
‘Neath the overpass the trooper hits his party lights switch
A
Good night, good luck, one, two powershift
