Working 80 hour work week. Will I still get a refund?

I work a 40 hour work week and I've always received a income tax refund. I claim zero dependents and I file single. As of 3-4 months ago I started 2 different part time jobs. I now work almost 80 hours a week. I'm still filing zero dependents with the 2 part times. I'm worried I'll have to pay taxes instead of getting a refund. How can I avoid having to pay the IRS money instead of getting a refund? I don't make enough on just 1 job so that's why I started 2 part time jobs in additional.

    Since each job will withhold as if it was the ONLY job then you may need to adjust one or both W-4 forms you hand in to each employer ... use the IRS W-4 tool to see what you need to do so you pay in enough withholding ...  https://www.irs.gov/individuals/employees/tax-withholding
