I Can Sleep When I’m Dead Songtext
von 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 I can sleep when I'm dead
If there's somethin′ goin′ on within a hundred miles from home
You 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 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 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
Like I said
Like I said
I can sleep when I'm dead
(I ain′t even tired yet)
