You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm When the day is done you're the midnight sun I can run to, to keep me warm You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night When the whistle blows till the rooster crows I know you're gonna do me right, yeah Stuck out on the bay bridge creepin' through the fog It's a dog eat dog day Workin' on the south end, patchin' up holes That the winter's gonna wash away And when the boss man hollers, "Quittin' time!" I'll be on my way, come rain or shine To those Tampa lights calling me across the bay You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm When the day is done you're the midnight sun I can run to, to keep me warm You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night
When the whistle blows till the rooster crows I know you're gonna do me right, yeah Talkin' to the bank man, tryin' to get a loan Got to keep away the wolf pack Stoppin' by the junkyard, lookin' for a part To rejeuvenate the Pontiac And that dark cloud keeps on hangin' 'round Lord, the tide comes up, when the chips are down But I got your love to help me get the blue skies back You're the eye of a hurricane, the calm within a storm When the day is done you're the midnight sun I can run to, to keep me warm You're the eye of a hurricane, a beacon in the night When the whistle blows till the rooster crows I know you're gonna do me right, yeah
