[Verse 1]
I just found out today the little game you play
While I been sleeping all my life away
You been stepping, so they say, between midnight and day
So I'm going to sleep with one eye open from now on

[Chorus]
From now on (From now on), all night long (All night long)
You won't have a chance to treat your mama wrong
You been stepping so they say, between midnight and day
So I'm going to sleep with one eye open from now on

[Verse 2]
There's a honky-tonk down the road, just about a mile or so
And I understand that's where you spend your time
Baby, I got news for you, your little game is through
Yeah, from now on baby, you better toe the line

[Chorus]
From now on (From now on), all night long (All night long)
You won't have a chance to treat your mama wrong
You been stepping, so they say, between midnight and day
So I'm going to sleep with one eye open from now on

[Verse 3]
You thought you were being smart, breaking my little heart
And leaving me to spend my time alone
Well, you'll find out today it just don't work that way
You've started a little game that two can play
[Chorus]
From now on (From now on), all night long (All night long)
You won't have a chance to treat your mama wrong
You been stepping, so they say, between midnight and day
But you better sleep with one eye open from now on

[Outro]
Yeah, and I'm going to sleep with one eye open from now on
