I Can Sleep When I’m Dead Lyrics by John & Audrey Wiggins

The Dream

0

(Leslie Winn Satcher/Max T Barnes)
Well it's 9pm, four hours of overtime
I'm not working my way up the corporate ladder
Just a hard hat on the line, I'm just a hard hat on the line
Well I'm dog tired and draggin
But I'm gettin my second wind
These boots were made for dancin
And kickin back with friends
Loadin dock, punch the clock
Crank the truck, kickin dust
Gonna paint th whole town red
I ought to put these tired old bones to bed
But I'm livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
Time's way too short
They ain't makin anymore
I'm havin fun
My workin day is done
I ought to put these tired bones to bed
But I'm livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
I know a place that's open all night
They got a sawdust floor and flashing neon light
They got a flashing neon light
They got a flashing neon light
They know me cause I'm sure there alot
And nobody takes my favorite parking spot
Loadin dock, punch the clock
Crank the the truck, kickin dust
Gonna paint the whole town red
I ought to put these tired old bones to bed
But I'm livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
Time's way too short
They ain't makin anymore
I'm havin fun
My working day is done
Time's way too short
They ain't makin anymore
I'm havin fun
My workin day is done
I ought to put these tired bones to bed
But I'm livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
I ought to put these tired old bones to bed
But I'm livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
I ought to put these tired old bones to bed
But I'm livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
I'm livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
I;m livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
Livin it up
Livin it up
Livin it up
I can sleep when I'm dead
