Sleepy Man Blues
When a man gets trouble in mind, he wanna sleep all the time,
When a man gets trouble in mind, he wanna sleep all the time,
He doesn't can sleep all the time, the trouble won't worry his mind, won't worry his mind.
I'm feelin' worried in mind and I'm tryin' to keep from cryin',
I'm feelin' worried in mind and I'm tryin' to keep from cryin',
I am standin' in the sunshine to keep from weakin' down, keep from weakin' down.
I want somewhere to go, but I hate to go to town,
I want somewhere to go to satisfy my mind,
I would go to town, but I hate to stand around, hate to stand around.
I wonder what's the matter with my right mind, my mind keep me sleepin' all the time,
I wonder what's the matter with my right mind, my mind keep me sleepin' all the time,
But when I had plenty money, my friend would come around, would come around.
If I had my right mind, I would write my women a few lines,
If I had my right mind, I would write my women a few lines,
I will do most anything to keep from weakin' down, keep from weakin' down.
