Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, I get up in the morning, have a smoke, have a drink
Then I get dressed
I don't want to get to work too late
'Cause that bossman he's a real mean son-of-a-bitch
Everything is so fast and so crazy
But the day still slowly slips on by
Then that five o'clock whistle starts to blow
I'll be gone in a wink of an eye
[Verse 2]
Tonight, I'm gonna see my baby again
And that long-haired girl will be smiling
When she sees me walking in
Well all right, she looks so good
That she just has to be a sin
Tonight, I'm gonna see my baby again
Hell, yeah
[Verse 3]
We'll walk over to the East Street Montgomery Pier
She says she likes holding something dangerous
She pulls me close and whispers in my ear
She says, "Come here, little boy
I'll put my pussy right on your face
Because my fever is running hot and high
And you're the boy that makes me feel like I'm alive"
[Verse 4]
Tonight, I'm gonna see my baby again
And that long-haired girl will be smiling
When she sees me walking in
Well all right, hell, yeah, she's looking so damn good
That she just has to be a sin
Tonight, I'm gonna see my baby again
We're gonna go walking down Kirkwood, look at us go
Well all right, she looks so good
That she just has to be a sin
Tonight
