Lyle Lovett - Sleepwalking Lyrics
Last night you know I couldnt sleepI was tossing, turning, and counting sheepTo tell the truthThe next thing I knewI woke up on the outsideIn the middle of the avenueA policeman spied me traffic thereIn my t-shirt and my underwearHe said, son, sonIt sure dont look goodThe way youve been calling for your babyAll over the neighborhoodIt seems I was sleepwalkingAgain last nightThe way I was sweet talkingIt must have caused a terrible frightLast night when I was sleepwalkingSomeone saw me at a doughnut shopI was sitting, crying on a tabletopIt was not a pretty sightI was out of controlThe way that I was carrying onAbout my sweet jelly rollI said officer pleaseMy babys got me down on my kneesLying in bedLate at nightSometimes I just go out of my headAt nightAnd I go out sleepwalkingLater on down at the jail cellI was hoping things would turn out wellBecause I dont recallThat masquerade ballAnd I dont remember nothing yallAbout that blown up rubber dollSo lately Ive stopped going anywhereAnd Ive taken to sleeping with a teddy bearIts a very full and richImaginary lifeAnd its sure enough better than dreaming yallAbout any imaginary wife
