Sleepy-Town - Jim White[00:00:00]

I whisper beautiful secrets into[00:00:18]

The drainpipes at night[00:00:23]

For the old folks while they're sleeping[00:00:28]

Something to help them with their dreams[00:00:33]

I climb the wall to the cemetery[00:00:38]

Lay down on the grave of my father[00:00:43]

I hear him asking me for forgiveness[00:00:48]

So I close my eyes in prayer[00:00:53]

And then a rainy-rainy-rain falls down[00:00:58]

A cool rainy-rain upon my head[00:01:02]

Makes the river overflow it's banks[00:01:07]

And wash my cares away to Sleepy-town[00:01:12]

I pour whiskey in the honeycomb[00:01:27]

It makes the bees all turn to angels[00:01:32]

I watch them fly off into heaven[00:01:36]

They Disappear where I can't follow[00:01:41]

And I would write Jesus a letter[00:01:46]

But I hear that he don't speak English[00:01:51]

So instead I'll just throw these cobblestones[00:01:56]

Until I ring that old church bell[00:02:00]

Until the rainy-rainy-rain fall down[00:02:05]

Cool rainy-rain upon my head[00:02:09]

Makes the river overflow it's banks[00:02:14]

And wash my cares away to Sleepy-town[00:02:19]

To Sleepy-town[00:02:26]

In Sleepy town[00:02:35]

Sleepy town[00:02:38]

You let the wild wind blow away your name[00:02:40]

In Sleepy town[00:02:44]

Sleepy town[00:02:48]

You let the healing rain just wash your pain away[00:02:49]

I see a light on in the station[00:03:11]

Yeah someone is waiting for a train[00:03:15]

And I envy them their leaving[00:03:20]

As I turn to head back home again[00:03:25]

For soon the morning sun will rise[00:03:30]

And this little town will open up it's eyes[00:03:34]

Return from the land where I've never been[00:03:39]

From a Sleepy-town that's free[00:03:44]

From all that rainy-rainy-rain fall down[00:03:50]

The cool rainy-rain upon my head[00:03:55]

Makes the river overflow it's banks[00:04:00]

And wash my cares away[00:04:05]

Yeah to Sleepy-town[00:04:13]

Sleepy town[00:04:17]

Sleepy town[00:04:19]

Sleepy town[00:04:22]

Sleepy town[00:04:24]

Sleepy town[00:04:27]

Sleepy town[00:04:28]

Sleepy Sleepy town[00:04:29]
