"Sleep Walkin' Blues"

I just stepped in a puddle and I sank up to my neck
I can't see the traffic light I'll get run over yet
It cost me thirteen tokens to find my way back home
By then you'd shut the water off and taken out my phone
Since you've given me those sleep walkin' blues
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues blues blues
I don't know if I'll wake up from this dream of you
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues

I shoot out my doormat in the middle of my bed
My life is undernourished 'cause my heart is underfed
My days are rambling nightmares my nights are even worse
'Cause I can't find a way to get myself back down to earth
Since you've given me...

[Dobro]

I put on Waylon Jennings but I could not hear a sound
Yet all my neighbors yellin' turn that country music down
I picked up my guitar to try to ease my mind
But the notes stopped to my fingers and the words they would not rhyme
Since you've given me...
I don't know if I'll wake up from this dream of you
You've given me those sleep walkin' blues
