Sleepy Eyed Boy Lyrics - Storm Windows - John Prine

Where are the boot straps 

To lift myself up? 

Where is the well 

Where I once filled my cup? 

Where does this sorrow 

All turn into joy? 

And where oh where is the sleepy eyed boy? 

Where is my true love 

When the wind starts to moan? 

Is she out in the wild, 

Is she there all alone? 

Have I cast her aside 

Like an unwanted toy? 

Tell me where oh where is the sleepy eyed boy?

He's goin' down the backroads 

In a cold pourin' rain 

He's a waitin' for a postcard 

In the south coast of Spain 

Postmarked from a sweetheart 

Back in ol' Illinois 

Sayin' where oh where is my sleepy eyed boy?
