Letra 'Sleepin''

Johnny s been runnin hard all his life
Cause life never treated him right
Well he ain t running now
You see his eyes are closed
They can t hurt him tonight

Sleepin , he s sleepin
Just let him be for a while
Don t wake him, don t take him
To where the people don t smile

Sleepin , my man is sleepin nice now
Please let him stay here with me
I promise, I ll keep him
At home, where he s supposed to be

He s been out there
In the streets you know
And strugglin , scufflin
Trying to survive
Out there in a richman s world
And now you say my Johnny is not alive
But you re wrong, can t you see

Sleepin , he s just sleepin mister
He doesn t rest very much
He lives hard and he gives hard
And I ll just die for his touch

Sleepin , he s sleepin
Without a care to his name
He s peaceful
He s quiet
He s tired of runnin his game

He s been out there
In the streets you know
With all the pain and all the suffering
Out there
Where you fight like hell
He never learned a fix don t fix a thing
Don t touch him

Johnny put too much in his vanes
And now you re trying to tell me he s gone
I don t believe you
I m just gonna sit here
And rock him in my arms

Sleepin , he s sleepin
He doesn t rest very much
You see he lives hard and gives hard
