	Story Behind the Song I had received notice from my supervisor that I had to cover the 3:30 to midnight shift on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, and the day after. Summing up my holiday as shot, I wrote this song at around 2:00 in the morning after getting off of the shift. I was going to mention the holiday aspect, but it's too damn depressing to be a Christmas song! Lyrics The full moon is heading toward my eyes I should be sleeping that ain't no lie When that happens you've got the second shift blues Second shift blues Afterwork I used to walk the town Now there is'nt anybody around Well kick your feet up yeah, when you've got a case of these blues Second shift blues My friends would call after the day was spent Now none of them can figure out just where I went That tends to happen when you've got a case of these blues So moonlight don't you shine anymore Because it's you in particular that I ignore I get pretty rude moon, when I get a case of these blues Second shift blues, second shift blues, second shift blues second shift blues
