Verse 1:

                
 Marvin,  he was a friend of mine,
                                      
And he could sing a song, his heart in every line.
                   
 Marvin,  sang of the joy and pain,
                                      
He opened up our minds and I still can hear him say;

Bridge 1:

                                    
Aw, talk to me, so you can see; what's going on.
                                 
 Say you will, sing your songs, for-evermore, evermore.

Chorus 1:

                                             
Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down, on the night shift.
                                            
I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd.
                                                  
Gonna be a long night; it's gonna be alright, on the night shift.
                                                                     
Oh, you found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the night shift.
                                                      
You found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the night shift.

Verse 2:

                       
 Jackie,     hey, what you doing now?
                                     
It seems like yesterday, when we were working out.
                  
 Jackie,  you set the world on fire.
                                    
You came and gifted us; your love it lifted us, higher and higher.

Bridge 2:

                             
 Keep it up and we'll be there, at your side.
                                    
Oh, say you will, sing your songs, for-evermore, evermore, evermore.

Chorus 2:

                                             
Gonna be some sweet sounds, coming down, on the night shift.
                                            
I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd.
                                                  
Gonna be a long night; it's gonna be alright, on the night shift.
                                                                     
Oh, you found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the night shift.
                                                      
You found a-nother home, I know you're not alone on the night shift.
