09_Lyrics: Part 1

I came up with these earlier tonight.  I dedicate them to anyone who wishes they could just sleep.  They are to be sung to the tune of Johny Cash's "Folsom Prison Blues":


"I hear my bed a callin'
It wants me to come home
It's want me to lay in it
So I'll never be alone
But the rain is coming down
And I have so far to go
Until my weary head
Hits my loving pillow

When I was just a young boy
The two of us were lovers
I didn't wanna go to school
Just stay underneath the covers
But my mother pulled the sheets off
She told me to go out
And now my bed is calling
And I can hear it shout

So here I am a walkin
Until I can get back
To those faithful lovin bedsprings
And that deep rest that I lack
But the rain keeps on falling
And I wish that I could be
Under those warm dark covers
So fast asleep"

- Kid
