Sleepwalking — текст песни (Lyle Lovett)

Last night you know I couldnt 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 dont look good

The way youve 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 babys 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 dont recall

That masquerade ball

And I dont remember nothing yall

About that blown up rubber doll



So lately Ive stopped going anywhere

And Ive taken to sleeping with a teddy bear

Its a very full and rich

Imaginary life

And its sure enough better than dreaming yall

About any imaginary wife
