Last night you know I couldn't sleep   I was tossing, turning, and counting sheep   To tell the truth   The next thing I knew   I woke up on the outside   In the middle of the avenue      A policeman spied me traffic there   In my t-shirt and my underwear   He said, son, son   It sure don't look good   The way you've been calling for your baby   All over the neighborhood      It seems I was sleepwalking   Again last night   The way I was sweet talking   It must have caused a terrible fright   Last night when I was sleepwalking      Someone saw me at a doughnut shop   I was sitting, crying on a tabletop   It was not a pretty sight   I was out of control   The way that I was carrying on   About my sweet jelly roll      I said officer please   My baby's got me down on my knees   Lying in bed   Late at night   Sometimes I just go out of my head   At night   And I go out sleepwalking      Later on down at the jail cell   I was hoping things would turn out well   Because I don't recall   That masquerade ball   And I don't remember nothing y'all   About that blown up rubber doll      So lately I've stopped going anywhere   And I've taken to sleeping with a teddy bear   It's a very full and rich   Imaginary life   And it's sure enough better than dreaming y'all   About any imaginary wife
