Gerry Rafferty Baker Street Album

13.Sleepwalking

Out on the street and the rain is fallin? i got nowhere to go
Here in my heart i can hear you callin? maybe i should come back
home
I don?t know what keeps us together but i can?t break the chain
I don?t mind a little stormy weather but i just can?t stand the
rain

Hey sleep sleepwalking hey deep sleep talkin?
Hey reelin? and rockin? hey wailin? at the moon
Hey sleep sleepwalking hey deep sleep talkin?
Hey reelin? and rockin? hey wailin? at the moon

Sleep won?t come so you lie there waitin? lookin? at the silvery
light
Tellin? yourself there?s nothin? new so whatever gets you
through the night
Meanwhile back in the music business the beat goes on and on
I sell my soul to the company man when there?s nothin? else to
lean upon

Hey sleep sleepwalking hey deep sleep talkin?
Hey reelin? and rockin? hey wailin? at the moon
Hey sleep sleepwalking hey deep sleep talkin?
Hey reelin? and rockin? hey wailin? at the moon

People come people go friends they disappear there?s only one
thing
That i wanted to know tell me where do we go from here
Everybody?s on the make everybody?s tryin? to get ahead
In a world like this you just exist to feed the walkin? dead

Hey sleep sleepwalking hey deep sleep talkin?
Hey reelin? and rockin? hey wailin? at the moon
Hey sleep sleepwalking hey deep sleep talkin?
Hey reelin? and rockin? hey wailin? at the moon

Lookin? out on a world gone crazy waitin? for the fun to begin
The race is on yeah they?re gettin? ready jesus what a state
we?re in
Meanwhile down in my backyard i?m sittin? doin? solitary
Now that i've milked the sacred cow i just worry ?bout the
military

Hey sleep sleepwalking hey deep sleep talkin?
Hey reelin? and rockin? hey wailin? at the moon
Hey sleep sleepwalking hey deep sleep talkin?
Hey reelin? and rockin? hey wailin? at the moon

Get ready
Get ready
Get ready
