Ralph McTell - Sleepytime Blues Lyrics




When your mind starts dreaming
Your heart starts stealing
Here comes them sleepy time blues
Sure as the train's rolling down the track
Better go to sleep
Before the blues gets back go to sleep boys
Don't blow no fuse
I know you want to stay awake
But it just ain't no use better go to sleep
And turn your tired mind loose
Here comes them sleepy time blues

It's time for sleeping
For the dawn comes creeping
In it's early morning shoes turn it in
Try to forget you don't really need
Another cigarette your throat is tired
Your mind's all sore your head is aching
Don't you know what's more
You can't remember
What you're staying up for
Here comes them sleepy time blues

The more you fret the worse it gets
It's time to call it a day
Then after you've slept
And you open your eyes you're sure to be in
For a nice surprise lose them blues
It's out of style
Tomorrow you'll find that it
Wasn't worthwhile and come the morning
You'll have to smile when you think about
Your sleepy time blues
