From the recording Cut Loose and Live
Lyrics
Sleep My Life Away
DON’T WANNA WASTE MY TIME IN BED THERE’LL BE TIME ENOUGH FOR THAT WHEN I’M DEAD
DON’T WANNA SLEEP MY LIFE AWAY
WHEN THE STARS COME OUT AND THE SUN GOES DOWN, WE’LL BE DRINKIN’ BEER AT THE CADILLAC LOUNGE
DON’T WANNA SLEEP MY LIFE AWAY
Monday mornin’ comes I drag myself outa bed
Try to avoid my boss while I ease my achin’ head
Waitin’ for my punch out time, can’t wait ‘till it’s five
Coz that’s the night time, it’s my time when I’m alive
Tuesday Wednesday, man they pass by in a blur
Every morning I wake up my tongue is growin’ fur
Thursday it drags too, can’t wait for Friday night
Round ‘bout 5 ‘o’clock I finally feel all right
