I'm Workin'

tim mcgraw - i'm workin'

damn i hope no one dies

on this night shift tonight

always lit up like a roman candle

everybody comes in like they're looking for a fight

i'll have to tell his family

as he rides off to heaven

then twenty minutes later

i'm drinking my coffee down at the seven eleven

i'm workin'

yeah i'm workin'

all these truckers out here

drive with one hand on the wheel

and a cell phone to their ear

apologizing for something they missed

or can't get to i'm sorry to my dear

yeah but that's the way it goes

and we sure need the money

this life of ours is far from perfect ain't it honey

but i'm workin'

baby i'm workin'

so make the kids do their homework

before you put 'em to bed

and there's dinner in the fridge make sure everybody gets fed

and i know i won't get to see you before you leave for your day

i guess it's the only time that we get to say 'i love you'

baby i love you

show the last kids on the school bus

as i lay me down to sleep

and i keep hurrying and worrying and wondering and praying

for all my soul can keep

i know i couldn't do it if you weren't there

there'd be no home to come home to no reason to care

so i just had to call you before i faded away

i guess it's the only time that we get to say 'i love you'

baby i love you

i love you

i love you

damn i hope no one dies on this night shift tonight
