Endless Sleep Songtext
von Hank Williams, Jr.

The night was black rain falling down look for my baby she′s nowhere around
Traced her footsteps down to the shore afraid she's gone for evermore
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say I took your baby from you away
I heard a voice cryin′ in deep come join me baby in my endless sleep


Why did we quarrel why did we fight why did I leave her alone tonight
That's why her footsteps ran into the sea that's why my baby has gone from me
I looked at the sea...

Ran in the water heart full of fear there in the breakers I saw her near
Reached for my darling held her to me stole her away from the angry sea
I looked at the sea and it seemed to say you took your baby from me away
My heart cried out she′s mine to keep I saved my baby from that endless sleep
Endless sleep endless sleep endless sleep
