Sleepyhead lyrics
by Ray Charles
[Verse]
Some day is always a glum day
You lose all your spirit;
Bleak day, that workaway weekday
And oh how you fear it!
Closing, your heavy eyes closing
Till nearly asleep, dear
Dozing, while dreaming dozing
Your troubles will keep, dear;
Sleepyhead, you'd better go dreaming
Sleepyhead, don't open your eyes!
Sleepyhead, or why should you worry away?
You'd better hurry away
Into your daydreams
Gay dreams!
Sleepyhead, when tears come a-streaming
Oh, weepyhead, no sorrow is wise;
Sleep away
Deep away
Keep away your sighs
Sleepyhead, don't open your eyes!
