Sleepin' Lyrics - Diana Ross

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

Prime Day concert by Amazon Music will be headlined by Taylor Swift 

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 

Photos 

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
