| Moonlighter |
| Stephanie Davis |
| I rise with the sun** cause my work is never done |
| And those leftover chores* from the midnight before* are still waiting for me |
| Once again I'm caught between* this rock and hard place |
| Well I get up on my feet and make coffee in my sleep |
| The school bell rings at eight** I hope the kids don't make me late |
| Cause the boss will want to know |
| Why I'm holdin' up the side show ** in this rat race………. |
| And it seems** like all the days are gettin' shorter |
| Fight with time to make your pay |
| Give a dollar's worth away to make a quarter |
| But I believe the holy light is burnin' brighter |
| To come and take this old world back** stop the pendulum in its track |
| And let the sun forever shine** on this moonlighter |
| The mornin' news is grim** the cost of livin's up again |
| And there's little left to spare**but I'm contendin' for my share |
| Cause my prospects are high**people reaching for the good life**all around me |
| Well I'm sure the lord knew best** when he made a day of rest |
| But it sure would turn out neat** with one more extra day a week |
| Maybe then this moonlight dance I do |
| Would never have a chance to overtake me….. |
| And it seems** like all the days are gettin' shorter... |
| Fight with time to make your pay |
| Give a dollar's worth away to make a quarter |
| But I believe** the holy light is burnin' brighter |
| To come and take this old world back** stop the pendulum in its track |
| And let the sun forever shine** on this moonlighter |
