I don’t like to wake up

I don't like to wake up,

'Til the sun is high.

And if you try to stir me,

This will I reply:

Give me ten more minutes;

Let me stay in bed.

Like Rip Vanwinkle I'll wake up,

And maybe you'll be dead.

Get outta my face,

You old disgrace.

I've got some news.

I paid my dues.

Why can't you see,

What you've done to me?

Now I need to snore,

Three hours more.

Please, do not di-sturb me.

Won't you go away?

And leave me with this shade tree.

Come a-no-ther day.

I can't stand the sun light.

Sun-shine hurts my eyes.

Why, it's still prac-tic-ly midnight.

It ain't time to rise.

Get outta my face,

You old disgrace.

I've got some news.

I paid my dues.

Why can't you see,

What you've done to me?

Now I need to snore,

Six hours more.

It's not nice to poke me,

While I'm sound asleep.

It's too got damned early,

For that blasted beep.

If I hear just one time,

"Get back to the plow,"

I just might have to forget I'm

Due for work right now.

Get outta my face,

You old disgrace.

I've got some news.

I paid my dues.

Why can't you see,

What you've done to me?

Now I need to snore,

Nine hours more.

If you keep on prodding,

I will block you out.

And when my noggin's nodding.

Don't laugh, yell or shout.

Can't you see I'm tired?

I need rest right now.

Well, I don't care if I'm fired.

I'll get by somehow.

Get outta my face,

You old disgrace.

I've got some news.

I paid my dues.

Why can't you see,

What you've done to me?

Now I need to snore,

Twelve hours more.
