Let Me Sleep
-The Nadas

G C D G Em D C G 

Well today started bad, with a kick to the head
Only been an hour since I went to bed
Oh well, I guess I won't sleep again
Dark man in the dark sunglasses
Saying boys you better move your asses
You just can't sleep anywhere you want 
When you're here in Texas

I learned to keep myself poor
Always drinking more, than I bring in at the door
Oh well, I guess I'd better run again
But I must have run to slow
'Cause with my face down in the snow
The man says boy you got to go
You gotta leave Colorado

And I'm a long way from home again
I'm a long way from my family and my friends
Well I'm a long way from home again, but I know
Everything gonna work out right
In the end

Even with these cuffs here on my hands
Locked up tight in the can
Lord you know I'm a lucky man
'Cause at least I get to eat again
And there's people worse off in China
This cell's a great reminder
You just can't sleep out on the beach
When your in South Carolina

And I'm a long way from home again
I'm a long way from my family and my friends
Well I'm a long way from home again, but I know
Everything gonna work out right
In the end

I'm a long way from home again
I'm a long way from home
I'm a long way from home again

Well today started bad, with a kick to the head
Only been an hour since I went to bed
Oh well, I guess I won't sleep again
