Mister, Mister

Hey mister, mister, you can have my day but you better leave my nights alone
I'm leaving in the evening, then I'll be goin' home
Hey mister, mister you can have me pay, but I'm never yours to own
Only I, it's the time when I want it, and only I, so leave my night alone

I put a face on to wear through the day
It's a heavy uniform hanging on me, but here I am to do what I have to
Noddin' my head, hummin' the drum, going through the motion
Moving, carry on until the sundown calls the time that I'll be gone
Only I, it's the night when I want it and only I gotta let it go
Only I, it's my time and I want it, only my to own

Hey mister, mister, you can have my day but you better leave my nights alone
I'm leaving in the evening, then I'll be goin' home
Hey mister, mister you can have me pay, but I'm never yours to own
I'll give you every day, but the nights are just one

You can tell me what to say, tell me what to do, throw me any way that you want to
She won't ever make me work the night through
'Cause I've got places to go, people to see
Got my mind set on the sunset to separate me from this grindstone
Carving out my way back home

Only I, only I, only I, in the night is when I want it
And only I, only I, so leave my night alone

Hey mister, mister, you can have my day but you better leave my nights alone
I'm leaving in the evening, then I'll be goin' home
Hey mister, mister you can have me pay, but I'm never yours to own
I'll give you every day, but the nights are just one

You can tie me up for a moment, and I'll earn what I owe
You can't tie me up, you better let me go

Hey mister, mister, you can have my day but you better leave my nights alone
Hey mister, mister you can have me pay, but I'm never yours to own
