You found me trying to forget
What happened to our home
You tried your best to comfort
The feelings of being all alone
And as another night falls
You look at me and wait for tomorrow
We'll sleep it off again
Another way to end all our sorrow

You memorized a country song
You wish that you could sing it on TV
You tried your best to hesitate
As I began to think how it would be
And as another show comes on
You hear ideas that you could borrow
We'll sleep on it again
Another song to sing away our sorrow

Now all our friends are dead
And me and you don't care about a thing
We're trying our best to survive
Each time the phone will ring (Waylon)
And with the final breath you take
I wave g'bye, preparing for the morrow
I'll sleep it off tonight
Another way to end all my sorrow
I'll sleep it off tonight
Another way to end all my grief
I'll sleep it off tonight
Another way to end all my sorrow
