I took a walk around the yard
I dug the flowers till it got too hard
Smoked my first pack of cigarettes today
Looked too much like you for the likes of me
And I woke up crying in my sleep
I was talking to your pillow
And I reached out to touch your hand
I knocked the phone off the night stand
" Can I help you please?"
And I said " No thanks baby
tonight there ain't no help for me."
You see I just had a bad dream
That's all that's wrong with me
You see I just had a bad dream
Went out to loosen up the car
Somehow I wound up at the Rainbow Bar
I had a scotch and soda on the run
I dragged them out to see the show
I tried to read your book
this time it just didn't seem
Worth all the time it look
And I woke up crying in my sleep
I was talking to your pillow
And I reached out to touch your hand
I knocked the phone off the night stand
" Can I help you please?"
And I said " No thanks baby
tonight there ain't no help for me."
You see I just had a bad dream
That's all that's wrong with me
You see I just had a bad dream
That's all that's wrong with me
You see I just had a bad dream
