I Can Sleep When I'm Dead Lyrics - Waitin' In The Country - Jason Michael Carroll

I got a little game that I play 

And I call it 'try to beat the morning paper home' 

I ain't very good but I get a lot of practice 

Even won once a month ago 

Of course there was a girl involved that wasn't gonna let me rest 

But I've always said that I can sleep when I'm dead 

If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home 

You're gonna hear my V-8 sing 

Long as I can beat the train and they got a passing lane 

Baby, I ain't gonna miss a thing 

Life's too fun and I'm too young and the night ain't over yet 

Like I said, I can sleep when I'm dead 

It ain't no fun if you ain't got money 

So I always make it in to work 

The trick is to leave at least a half an hour 

To brush my teeth and change my shirt 

Keep a closet full of Red Bull and Visine to hide the red 

I don't need the rest, I can sleep when I'm dead 

If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home 

You're gonna hear my V-8 sing 

Long as I can beat the train and they got a passing lane 

Baby, I ain't gonna miss a thing 

Life's too fun and I'm too young and the night ain't over yet 

Like I said, I can sleep when I'm dead 

When I get tired, I'll go to bed 

All that I can say is that it hasn't happened yet 

If there's somethin' goin' on within a hundred miles from home 

You're gonna hear my V-8 sing 

Long as I can beat the train and they got a passing lane 

Baby, I ain't gonna miss a thing 

Life's too fun and I'm too young and the night ain't over yet 

Like I said, like I said, like I said I can sleep when I'm dead 

I ain't even tired yet
