Don Covay Overtime Man
I'm the overtime man, girls
Where his love stop
Mine begin, oh
I'm the overtime man
And I don't mind puttin' the hours in
All you dudes, I'm warnin' you
You better see your old lady
All the way through
Stop gettin' what you want
And leavin' her uptight
Or I'll see that she get it
Her love rights
When you stumble and fall
Down on the job
I'm the one who sees
That her problem is solved, Lord!
I'm the overtime man-a
Where your love stop, mine begin
Lord, have mercy
I'm the overtime man, ya'all
And I don't mind puttin' the hours in
Listen, I'm Sheriff from sweetback
Rolled into one
Satisfaction guaranteed or get a refund
I'm a bad, bad, undercover cat
Girl, get your pencil
And make the note of that
When his motor stop a-runnin'
He pulls over to the curb
I'll be steady rollin' baby
Using my reserve
Lord, I'm an overtime man, ya'all
Where your love stop, mine begin
Lord have mercy
Overtime man, ya'all
Takes care of homework that's undone
The overtime man, yeah
Lord!
Will add your woman to his run
All you dudes
Tryin' to kill to birds with one stone
Throwin' your love in the street
And bring the leftovers home
You're invitin' me
To your residence
I'll be gettin' the joy, brother
While you're payin' the rent
While you're out in the street
Havin' yourself a ball
I'll be steady makin' my
Regular house calls, Lord!
'Cause I'm the overtime man, fellas
Where your love stop, mine begin
Listen
'Cause I'm the overtime man
Lord, I'm the long distance man
FADES-
I got more love
Tender love
The moment you leave.
