Chris Thile — Sleep with One Eye Open lyrics

Lyrics

I just found out today that little game you play
While I’m just sleeping all my life away
You’ve been stepping, so they say
Between midnight and day
I’m gonna sleep with one eye open from now on From now on, all night long
You ain’t gonna have a chance
To treat your daddy wrong
You been stepping, so they say
Between midnight and day
I’m gonna sleep with one eye open from now on There’s a honky-tonk down the road
Just about a mile or so And I understand that’s where you spend your time
Baby, I’ve got news for you, your little game is through
From now on, darling, toe the line
From now on, all night long
You ain’t gonna have a chance
To treat your daddy wrong
You been stepping, so they say
Between midnight and day
I’m gonna sleep with one eye open from now on You thought you being wise
Hanging around with other guys
And leaving me to spend my time alone
Yeah, you’ll find out today, it don’t work that way
You’ve started a little game that two can play
From now on, all night long
You ain’t gonna have a chance
To treat your daddy wrong
You been stepping, so they say
Between midnight and day
I’m gonna sleep with one eye open from now on Yes, I’m gonna sleep with one eye open from now on
