I Sleep Just Like a Baby

George Jones · Dispatches 1990-99: A Critical Collection [Raven] [2005]

By now I guess she's wondering how I'm doing

If it broke my heart when she told me goodbye

Well, every night I sleep just like a baby

I wake up every hour and cry.



I bet she don't think I'm going miss her

Probably think she's always on my mind

But every night I sleep just like a baby

I wake up every hour and cry.



She believes that I can't live with out her

And it hurts so bad sometimes I almost die

Well, every night I sleep just like a baby

I wake up every hour and cry.



--- Instrumental ---



(Spoken)

You know I'll bet way down deep

That she thinks that I'll always love her

And I'll bet she thinks I'll never love another

No matter how hard I try.



(Sang)

'Cause every night I sleep just like a baby

I wake up every hour and cry.



Lord, every night I sleep just like a little bitty baby

I wake up every hour and cry...
