Lyrics
Let me lie where I lie, let me sleep when I die
let me dream with the river, the mountain and sky
I done my best, now let me just rest
Don't wake me on judgement day
Don't wake me on judgement day
Don't wake me on judgement day
So I begin with original sin
Seems that I lost before I could win
guilty from birth when I crawled from the earth
I started with no score at all
They sent me to school to learn a few rules
Like reading and writing and playing the fool
sat some exams, to determine my plans
what would I do with my life as a man, yeah
Let me lie where I lie, let me sleep when I die
let me dream with the river, the mountain and sky
I done my best, now let me just rest
Don't wake me on judgement day
Don't wake me on judgement day
Don't wake me on judgement day
I walk this way, this path i found
this little trip along the ground
And every day, to my dismay
there's some assessment in my way
I been measured and tested and misrepresented
been loved and molested and sometimes detested
I've been arrested, but never requested
a spot on judgement day
Let me lie where I lie, let me sleep when I die
let me dream with the river, the mountain and sky
I done my best, now let me just rest
Don't wake me on judgement day
Don't wake me on judgement day
Don't wake me on judgement day
When you stand in the queue for your final review
don't look for me I'll not be joining you
I've made my plans, its outta your hands
don't wake me on judgement day.
Let me lie where I lie, let me sleep when I die
let me dream with the river, the mountain and sky
I done my best, now let me just rest
Don't wake me on judgement day
Don't wake me on judgement day
Don't wake me on judgement day
