lyle lovett - sleepwalking lyrics
last night you know i couldn’t sleep
i was tossing, turning, and counting sheep
to tell the truth
the next thing i knew
i woke up on the outside
in the middle of the avenue
a policeman spied me traffic there
in my t-shirt and my underwear
he said, son, son
it sure don’t look good
the way you’ve been calling for your baby
all over the neighborhood
it seems i was sleepwalking
again last night
the way i was sweet talking
it must have caused a terrible fright
last night when i was sleepwalking
someone saw me at a doughnut shop
i was sitting, crying on a tabletop
it was not a pretty sight
i was out of control
the way that i was carrying on
about my sweet jelly roll
i said officer please
my baby’s got me down on my knees
lying in bed
late at night
sometimes i just go out of my head
at night
and i go out sleepwalking
later on down at the jail cell
i was hoping things would turn out well
because i don’t recall
that masquerade ball
and i don’t remember nothing y’all
about that blown up rubber doll
so lately i’ve stopped going anywhere
and i’ve taken to sleeping with a teddy bear
it’s a very full and rich
imaginary life
and it’s sure enough better than dreaming y’all
about any imaginary wife
