Night Shift ft. Officer Red Hale

[Intro] *rain on windshield* *police radio crackle* *keys hit the bar* Clock out Badge down Still got the night on me [Verse 1] Blue lights fade in the rearview glass County line slipping underneath Same old roads, same old tired laugh Still got the city in my teeth Uniform wrinkled Coffee gone cold One more bridge One more song on the road They know my name At the Foxfire door I say I’m off duty But I’m not so sure [Pre-Chorus] Streetlights hum Harbor rain I come alive When I cross that lane Night shift ends But the feeling stays Port Vesper calls In a low-lit haze [Chorus] After the night shift I drive where the neon glows Where the music hits soft And nobody needs to know After the night shift I’m just Red for a while Fox in a uniform Trying on a smile One more song One more light One more chance To feel alright [Verse 2] Raccoon barkeep gives me that look Like, “boy, you’re late again” I pick a song from the jukebox glow Hoping someone notices then Sunglasses up Badge still bright Thinking maybe The ladies like A man who knows How dark roads bend A man who leaves But comes back again [Pre-Chorus] Streetlights hum Harbor rain I come alive When I cross that lane Night shift ends But the feeling stays Port Vesper calls In a low-lit haze [Chorus] After the night shift I drive where the neon glows Where the music hits soft And nobody needs to know After the night shift I’m just Red for a while Fox in a uniform Trying on a smile One more song One more light One more chance To feel alright [Bridge] *jukebox clicks* *saxophone enters* I’m not from here But I know the way Past the cranes Where the ghosts still play I don’t need saving I don’t need much Just a little warm trouble And a stranger’s touch [Final Chorus] After the night shift I drive where the neon glows Where the music hits soft And nobody needs to know After the night shift I’m just Red for a while Fox in a uniform Trying on a smile One more song One more light One more chance To feel alright [Outro] rain fades jukebox hum soft police radio static Off duty Not off the clock Not off the feeling Night shift Night shift Night shift
