red simpson - sleeper, five-by-two lyrics

[verse 1]
i’m a+rollin’ this jimmy on home my bones are tired and my eyes are red
i know the little woman’s sawin’ lots of logs on a great big king size bed
my best friend saul installed me a sleeper on my rig for a pretty price too
but i ain’t had much sleep these last ten days cause that sleeper’s just five+by+two

[verse 2]
saul said, “red, that’s a comfortable bed, it’s gonna seem like a paid vacation”
but that little bitty runt’s either pullin’ a stunt or got no imagination
with your elbow in your nose and the other one in your toes and a jack tryin’ to run you clean through
show me how to get some sleep in a sleeper five+by+two
[verse 3]
i had to move that load on down the road ’cause i’ve got a deadline to keep
but i’m gettin’ just a litte more burned everyday ’cause i’m gettin’ just a little less sleep
well, both of my knees are gaulded and there’s a burn up the side of my head
i can’t afford a room ’cause i got a lotta bills and one is that king size bed

[verse 4]
well, that little bitty sleeper on the back of my cab ain’t fit for a rabbit hutch
saul might a+went to college but if he did he didn’t acknowledge much
but if i wake up i’m gonna look saul up and make him know what i’ve been through
he’s gonna show me how to sleep in a sleeper five+by+two

[verse 5]
coffee’s keepin’ me straight but i’m in terrible shape to show for twenty tons of steel
but if you never been a fish in a sardine can then you couldn’t figure how i feel
i think i’ve had enough, this road’s too tough, i’m gonna find me a brand new rig
but first i’m gonna hit that king size bed and a+pull me a rip van winkle

[verse 6]
well, that sleeper’s gotta go or my name ain’t joe, and i hope that lightnin’ strikes me
i’ll just lay there and get covered up with sweat wonderin’ who up there don’t like me
i’m a+gonna tell saul all i need is one more friend like you
’cause a torture chamber is what he’s built, it’s a hot box five+by+two

[outro]
yeah, show me how to get some sleep in a sleeper five+by+two
