Gerry Rafferty - Sleepwalking Lyrics
Out on the street and the rain is fallin', I got nowhere to goHere in my heart I can hear you callin' maybe I should come back homeI don't know what keeps us together, but I can't break the chainI don't mind a little stormy weather, but I just can't stand the rain.Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moonSleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon.Sleep won't come so you lie there waitin', lookin' at the silvery lightTellin' yourself there's nothin' new, so whatever gets you through the nightMeanwhile back in the music business the beat goes on and onI sell my soul to the company man, when there's nothin' else to lean upon.Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moonSleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon.People come and people go, friends they disappearThere's only one thing that I wanna know, tell me where do we go from hereEverybody's on the make, everybody's tryin' to get aheadIn a world like this you just exist to feed the walkin' dead.Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moonSleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon.Lookin' out on a world gone crazy, waitin' for the fun to beginThe race is on yeah they're gettin' ready, Jesus what a state we're inMeanwhile down in my backyard I'm sittin' doin' solitaryNow that I've milked the sacred cow, I just worry bout the military.Sleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moonSleepwalkin', deep sleep talkin', reelin' and rockin', wailin' at the moon.(fade)Get readyGet readyDrums: Liam GenockeyElectric Guitar: Hugh BurnsPercussion: Maurice PertKeyboards: Kenny CraddockLead Vocals: Gerry RaffertyBacking Vocals: Gerry Rafferty / Christopher Neil
