I put my chips on her shoulder
|
running in the carnival time
|
she bought the things that I told her
|
they made her eyes sparkle and shine
|
together we'll ring in the new year
|
I know that she'll be my queen
|
and if I fall asleep in your arms
|
please wake me up in my dreams
|
Her out-fit was all made of vinyl
|
like nothing I've ever seen
|
when our divorces are final
|
She'll fit right into my scheme
|
next to the pawnshop's a chapel
|
I'll show you just what I mean
|
and if I fall asleep in your arms
|
please wake me up in my dreams
|

Please Wake Me Up
