The night gang started working
  With a mile of southern road
  As I watched
  I got to thinking
  You ain't never coming home
  I looked out of nowhere
  There was nobody at all
  To get me help
  To get through to you
  
  I'm here making night calls
  Night calls
  Making night calls
  Night calls
  Making night calls
  I gave
  
  I tried too hard to reach you
  But you must be moving fast
  All my hopes about the future
  Will just live on
  Into the past
  You know that it ain't easy
  And the twilight starts to fade
  Shouldn't you
  The chill of the morning
  Thinking of the plans we made
  
  Oh, night calls
  Making night calls
  Let it ring
  The night calls
  Making night calls
  Oh, night calls
  Give up those night calls
