[Intro: Holler Shakers instrumental motif] [Verse 1: Bubba, mature male] I've worried over things I can't fix Till the clock was striking two I counted every road tomorrow And all the things I couldn't do [Chorus: Bubba with Darlene, unmistakably female harmony] I want to sleep like a baby tonight Let the porch moon soften the light I'll do tomorrow's honest work When tomorrow comes in sight This old world can turn without me Till the morning paints the sky I want to sleep like a baby tonight [Verse 2: Darlene, female] Some days I stood through heavy weather Other days one word could sting I wonder how the smaller troubles Could wear me down more than anything [Bridge: Bubba and Darlene duet] Care is not the same as panic Love is not a sleepless fight Lord, watch over all I cannot hold [Final chorus: full band duet] I want to sleep like a baby tonight Let the porch moon soften the light I'll do tomorrow's honest work When tomorrow comes in sight This old world can turn without me Till the morning paints the sky I want to sleep like a baby tonight [Outro: instrumental answer and resolved final chord]
