Midnight 'Til Dawn

(アルバム： They're Stepping All Over My Heart - 1971)

I work everyday in a trucker's cafe
And at night I serve drinks in a bar
I've nothing to say to the men who drop by
So that none of them get very far

You may think that it's money
But that's not the reason that keeps me a laboring on
Cause I'm working from morning till midnight
And I'm weeping from midnight till dawn

For once I was happy and full of the futures
That only a young girl can plan
A lifetime of love all wrapped up in a bundle
And placed in the hands of a man

But then he found another
He told me he loved her he jumped in his rig and was gone
So I'm working from morning till midnight
And I'm weeping from midnight till dawn

Oh, life isn't easy and I'm nearly crazy
Just trying to keep myself sane
But how can I try when I know if I saw him
I'd do it all over again

So I give all my love
To my sweet little baby as only a poor mother can
And I'm working from morning till midnight
And I'm weeping from midnight till dawn
