Songtext von Sleepy Desert

Awake, awake, you sleepy desert Awake, awake, it's a-comin' day Stick your head out of the window And see what your true lover says Some people say that courting's pleasure Oh what pleasure do i see The dearest girl in this world Has gone and turned her back on me Awake, awake… You needn't to bother asking my papa He's in his room taking his rest And in his hand he holds a weapon To kill the man that i love best Awake, awake… I have no one to follow to the bedroom I have no one to sleep with me I have a wife way up in heaven And the lord knows she loves me Awake, awake…
