Lyrics
LEAVIN? WHILE YOU?RE SLEEPIN? Johnny Maddox (Copyright 2001)
You tell me that you dig me, but I ain?t believe?n you
You tell me that you love me baby, why do you do what you do?
You tell me that you need me, to sport you out on the town
Let me tell you Party Time, I gotta new line, for you
Gotta new line for you
(8 bar break)
Cause I saw you on the M.T.V., and you know what I seen
When I saw you on the MTV, I knew you were cheat?n me
I always tried to treat you right, spend my money on you
You stay out on me shake?n your thing, just look?n, for something new
Look?n for something new
(8 bar break) (Chorus)
So I?ll be leavin? while you?re sleepin?, Yea leavin? while you?re sleepin?
I?ll be leavin? while you?re sleepin?, Yea leavin? while you?re sleepin?
Cause you ain?t got a clue , no you ain?t got a clue
You ain?t got a clue who?s been, takin? care of you
Been takin? care of you
I got a little bit of news for you, you ain?t been do?in me right
Friends been watchin? you, say ya been sleepin? around
I look real deep in your eyes, and all I see is lies
When you wake up in the mornin? baby, I gotta surprise, for you
I gotta surprise, for you
(8 bar break)
I found me a brand new with baby blues, one that treats me right
This little babe wont want no money, just want me to do it all night
Packin? down all my trash, be checkin? out tonight
Only thing I?m gonna say is, I?ll be, - seein? you
I?ll be seein? you, you, you, you, you
(8 bar break) (Chorus)
I?ll be leavin? while you?re sleepin?, Yea leavin? while you?re sleepin?
I?ll be leavin? while you?re sleepin?, Yea leavin? while you?re sleepin?
Cause you ain?t got a clue, No you ain?t got a clue
You ain?t got a clue whose been, takin? care of you
Takin? care of you, you, you, you, you
(Bridge)
For once in my life, I know I?ve done something right
And that?s leavin? you tonight
Solo. 8 Bars (Chorus)
I?ll be leavin? while you?re sleepin?, I?ll be leavin? while you?re sleepin?
Cause you ain?t got a clue who?s been takin? care of you
Cause you ain?t got a clue who?e been, takin? care of you
Takin? care of you, Takin? care of you, you, you, you, you
I?ll be leavin? while you?re sleepin?
I?ll be leavin? while you?re sleepin?
