Marvin, he was a friend of mine

And he could sing his song, his heart in every line

Marvin sang of the joy and pain

He opened up our minds, I still can hear him say

"Oh, talk to me, so you can see what's going on

Say you will sing your songs forevermore" (Forevermore)

Gonna be some sweet sounds coming down on the nightshift

I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd

Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right on the nightshift (On the nightshift)

You found another home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift

Jackie, hmm, 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

Keep it up and we'll be there at your side

Oh, say you will sing your songs forevermore, evermore

Gonna be some sweet sounds coming down on the nightshift (On the nightshift)

I bet you're singing proud, oh, I bet you'll pull a crowd

It's gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right on the nightshift (On the nightshift)

You found another home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift

Gonna miss your sweet voice (Sweet voice)

That soulful noise on the nightshift

We'll remember you

Your song is coming through

Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right on the nightshift (On the nightshift)

You found another home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift

You found another home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift

On the nightshift

On the nightshift
