[Verse 1: John Lennon, John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]
When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (Float up stream)

[Chorus: John Lennon, John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]
Please, don't wake me (Ooh-ooh)
No, don't shake me
Leave me where I am (Ooh, woo-ooh)
I'm only sleeping

[Verse 2: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison, John Lennon]
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy
I don't mind, I think they're crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed
'Till they find there's no need (There's no need)

[Chorus: John Lennon, John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]
Please, don't spoil my day (Woo)
I'm miles away
And after all (Ooh, woo-ooh)
I'm only sleeping

[Bridge: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison, John Lennon]
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time
[Verse 3: John Lennon]
Lying there and staring at the ceiling
Waiting for a sleepy feeling

[Backwards Guitar Solo: George Harrison]

[Chorus: John Lennon, John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]
Please, don't spoil my day (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
I'm miles away
And after all (Ooh, woo-ooh)
I'm only sleeping

[Interlude: Paul McCartney]
(*Yawns*)

[Bridge: John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison, John Lennon]
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time

[Verse 4: John Lennon, John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]
When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (Float up stream)

[Chorus: John Lennon, John Lennon, Paul McCartney & George Harrison]
Please, don't wake me (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
No, don't shake me
Leave me where I am (Ooh, woo-ooh)
I'm only sleeping
