Wake up someday find your good gal gone

Said if you don’t treat your baby right
Said if you don’t treat your baby right
She’ll come see me some lonely night

When the sun goes down and the moon is gone
That’s when I come around don’t you think I won’t
On the graveyard shift stay up all night long
Wake up someday and find your good gal gone

I drive a Cadillac it rides just like a dream
Drive a Cadillac it rides just like a dream
All the pretty gals they want to ride with me

‘Cause I got what all the women want
Said I got what all the women want
I never say I do when I really don’t

When the sun goes down and the moon is gone
That’s when I come around, don’t you think I won’t
On the graveyard shift, stay up all night long
Wake up someday and find your good gal gone
