Sleep Like a Baby

Seventeen hours on a bus to Tennessee
No gum on my seat ever gonna stop me
From NYC to Kentucky
So you don’t gotta lift your finger

We were making love till 4 A.M
With a microwave pizza and a bottle of rye
Remember when you told me you could be my best friend
On a spit-shake promise?

I guess I could’ve predicted how it would play out
But I never could’ve imagined a complete blackout
At seventeen hours on a bus to Tennessee
For you and me, and

Ay, you sleep like a baby
Ay, you sleep like a baby
Fool me once, shame on you
But fool me twice, shame on me
Gonna sleep like a baby

My last 600 on a plane to LA
Not one returned call, got me waiting on your birthday
Wait, who’s the cheerleader that I see
Snappin’ names and chasin’ cleats?

She gets your first-class ticket courtesy of 19
After all, I’m only 19
You got a lovin’ machine

You flew her down to Tennessee
Go MIA in M-I-ami
Hit your buddy over at TMZ
At least you got your leak, something blonder than me
At least you got to leak something mama can see
But didn’t your momma ever tell you don’t lie to me?

Seventeen hours on a bus to Tennessee
Why you kissin her lips, on New Year’s Eve, boy?

Ay, you sleep like a baby
Ay, you sleep like a baby
Fool me once, shame on you
But fool me twice, shame on me
Gonna sleep like a baby

I want it, she had it
You want it, well, you got it, like
Extra! Extra! Read all about it
Socio-pathological, don’t doubt it
Oh no, no doubt about it, like

Ay, you sleep like a baby
Ay, you sleep like a baby
Fool me once, shame on you
But fuck me twice, shame on me
Gonna sleep like a baby
