Lyrics of Night Shift by Bob Marley & The Wailers

verse

The sun shall not smite I by day
Nor the moon by night, no
And everything that I do
Shall be upfull and right
And if it's all night
It got to be alright!
If it's all night
Got to be alright!

verse

Your mamma won't lose this one
You're the lucky one under the sun
If you make me move
Then you know you got the groove
All night, it's alright!
All night, yeah! It's alright!

chorus

Working on a forklift
In the night shift
Working on a night shift
With the forklift
From a.m. (if you say that? Why did you say that?)
To p.m. (working all night!)
Working on a night shift, yeah (if you say that? Why did you say that?)
(Upfull and right!)
Well, if it's (all night!) if it's (all right!)
If it's ll night (all night!)

verse

Warehouse (all right!)
You're empty, yeah!
Go around the corner
Bring your goods!
Go around the other corner
Bring your suitcases (all night!)
By the sweat of my brow (all right!)
Eat your bread (all night!)
By the sweat of my brow (all right!)
Eat your bread!

outro

All night (all night) all right (alright)
All night (all night) all right (alright)
Oh, yeah (moon by night)
Why did you say that? Oh, yeah (upfull and right!)
Working on a night shift
With the forklift (moon by night!)
Working on the night shift, yeah
Forklift (upfull and right!)
Writer(s): Bob Marley
