Barbara Mandrell - The Midnight Oil lyrics

Your rating:

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 makeup,
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.
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 makeup,
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 makeup,
I’m puttin’ on the one that really loves me.
While I’m puttin’ on my makeup,
I’m puttin’ on the one that really loves me.
