“I Don’t Want to Get Up”

Chorus:

I don’t want to wake-up

I just want to sleep

I don’t want the lights on

There way too bright for me

I don’t want to get up

I don’t want to talk

I would appreciate

When you close the door it’s locked

Son you need to get up

You’ve been in here too long

And by the way your friends called

They hope you’re hanging on

Your dad and I are worried

You really need to eat

You need to get you strength up

And get back on your feet

Repeat Chorus:

I know just what you’re going through

I have been there before

You’re father up and passed away

When you were only four

I remember how I felt that day

I thought that I would die

I laid there on that big brass bed

And I cried and cried and cried

Repeat Chorus:

I’m sorry that you’re hurtin

And I sorry that she’s gone

But son you have to realize

That life it must go on

You really need to get up

And try to carry on

Besides your daddy needs your help

Workin on the farm

Repeat Chorus:

Now boy you need to listen

For I won’t say this again

You’ve had your time for healing

You’ve had your time to mend

Your poor mom’s going crazy

She hardly sleeps at night

And boy I know you love her

And you know that’s just not right

I don’t want to wake-up

I just want to sleep

I don’t want the lights on

There way too bright for me

I don’t want to get up

I don’t want to talk

But since you put it that way Dad

I guess that I’ll get up

Repeat Chorus:
