This is my homage to the great song “Primetime.” This song is about a couple who both work overtime so much they’re too tired to fool around. This is meant to be them talking about their struggle to get romantic. That may end up being too difficult to write, but we’ll see.
Overtime
lyrics by Shelton Bumgarner
@bumgarls
please give credit if you produce or perform
[her]
have to work hard to pay the bills
too tired for any thrills
we’ve got two babies to feed
sometimes it’s difficult to make ends meet
but you still put me in heat
[him]
break my back that’s a fact
trying to put food on the table
sometimes wanna take you on the table
as you walk on by
you still make me hot as can be
[both]
overtime we have to work
every day it seems
overtime is where the money is made
but it gets in the way
of our love
[her]
we’ve been together for years
we’ll be together till the end
our love will always burn bright
no matter how many times we work overnight
[him]
my love is strong
I know you’ll always long for me
just as I want you late at night
when I need to sleep
we’ll make our ends meet
[both]
overtime we have to work
every day it seems
overtime is where the money is made
but it gets in the way
of our love
