Nightmare

These nightmares, nightmares, nightmares rides me all the time
These nightmares, nightmares, rides me all the time
I can't sleep at night, I can't sleep at night
These nightmares rides me night and day

I wonder why, my telephone don't never ring
Yes, I wonder why my telephone don't never ring
When my baby she was here with me
My telephone rung both night and day

My friends don't come around me, they don't seem like they know me no more
You know my friends don't come around me, ever since my baby been gone
These nightmares keep on riding me
You know they ride me night and day
Yes, yes

Yes, I went to a gypsy woman, just to have my fortune read
Yes, I went to a gypsy woman, just to have my fortune read
She said John you ain't never had a friend
They only was pretendin' to be

I said, "gypsy woman, can you stop these nightmares from riding me
Mmm, stop these nightmares from riding me
Because I just can't live on, live on, live on this way"
