Burnin' the Midnight Oil (2016 Remaster) - Foghat 歌词

The Midnight Oil - Gretchen Wilson

That call was from the office

And I guess I'll have to burn the midnight oil again

And hon' you know

How much the boss depends on me

To lend a helping hand

I watch him in the mirror

As I lie and tell him I don't know

How late I'll be

While I'm puttin' on my make up

I'm puttin' on the one that really loves me

The girls all got together

And they called to see

If I could have some fun tonight

But you know me

The only thing I do is go

To work and watch TV

And I watch him in the mirror

As I lie and tell him

I don't know how late I'll be

While I'm puttin' on my make up

I'm puttin' on the one that really loves me

And tonight I'll cheat again

And tomorrow I'll be sorry

And I'll feel kind of dirty cause

I'll have the midnight oil all over me

God knows his dream would shatter

If he knew the devil had me

And won't set me free

While I'm puttin' on my make up

I'm puttin' on the one that really loves me

While I'm puttin' on my make up

I'm puttin' on the one that really loves me
