Out on the street and the rain is fallin, I got nowhere to go
Here in my heart I can hear you callin maybe I should come back home
I dont know what keeps us together, but I cant break the chain
I dont mind a little stormy weather, but I just cant stand the rain.
Sleepwalkin, deep sleep talkin, reelin and rockin, wailin at the moon
Sleepwalkin, deep sleep talkin, reelin and rockin, wailin at the moon.
Sleep wont come so you lie there waitin, lookin at the silvery light
Tellin yourself theres nothin new, so whatever gets you through the night
Meanwhile back in the music business the beat goes on and on
I sell my soul to the company man, when theres nothin else to lean upon.
Sleepwalkin, deep sleep talkin, reelin and rockin, wailin at the moon
Sleepwalkin, deep sleep talkin, reelin and rockin, wailin at the moon.
People come and people go, friends they disappear
Theres only one thing that I wanna know, tell me where do we go from here
Everybodys on the make, everybodys tryin to get ahead
In a world like this you just exist to feed the walkin dead.
Sleepwalkin, deep sleep talkin, reelin and rockin, wailin at the moon
Sleepwalkin, deep sleep talkin, reelin and rockin, wailin at the moon.
Lookin out on a world gone crazy, waitin for the fun to begin
The race is on yeah theyre gettin ready, Jesus what a state were in
Meanwhile down in my backyard Im sittin doin solitary
Now that Ive milked the sacred cow, I just worry bout the military.
Sleepwalkin, deep sleep talkin, reelin and rockin, wailin at the moon
Sleepwalkin, deep sleep talkin, reelin and rockin, wailin at the moon.
