You've Got To Go To Sleep Alone
Well you may dance the night away and laugh among the stars,
And you may spill the milk away and cry among the bars.
And you may wake the rafters and break the heart of stone,
But you've got to go to sleep alone.
You've got to got to go to sleep alone.
You've got to got to go to sleep alone.
And even if you're lying with somebody,
Still you've got to go to sleep alone.
Well you may climb the golden stairs somewhere past Jacob's Ladder.
And you may put on golden airs and help the rich get sadder.
And you may learn the golden rule and sit on a golden throne,
But you've got to go to sleep alone.
You've got to got to go to sleep alone
You've got to got to go to sleep alone.
And even if you're lying to somebody,
Still you've got to go to sleep alone.
Well you may wake up in the night And wonder if you're dreaming,
And referee the fight between the being and the seeming.
And when the victor holds your hand up to the great unknown,
You've got to go back to sleep alone
You've got to got to go to sleep alone
You've got to got to go to sleep alone.
And even if you're lying with somebody you really love,
Still you've got to go to sleep alone.
