Unsleeping eye


Sleep don’t overtake me here
Don’t run me down like this
I got miles before they gonna lay me down
I ain’t ready yet, no I ain’t there yet
Quaalude Highway hypnotizing the lines across my face
One more sign before my mind begins hallucinating
Can’t stay awake
Give me something strong and let the night roll on to day

Chorus:
Unsleeping eye, don’t you fail me now
Crack a window wide and put your right foot down
Daydream through the night
But keep them wheels a spinning round and round
Unsleeping eye, say don’t you fail me now

There’s a girl at home she waiting up ‘til dawn
Lord she could use some sleep
I flash my brights and I dim my lights
I sink down a little deeper into my seat
Just to get back home this old rolling stone
Gone a thousand miles a night
Grant me speed and eyes to see my lonely girl tonight
She’s so outta sight
Lord don’t make me sleep like a refugee it ain’t right

Chorus

Blacktop asphalt grooving past all the rhythm in the lines
I’m locked down deep into the pocket, the sunrise keeping my time
All I ask is a tank of gas and a cup of coffee strong
Highway moon gonna keep me moving, I’m driving all night long

Chorus

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
