- The Sleep Of The Just Lyrics / with translations[Verse 1]
There always is consequences
For everything I do
I been awake here now all night
Shaking like the apostles used to do
Looks like I'll never know
I'll never know the sleep of the just
[Verse 2]
Each and every night is worrisome
These miseries cross my mind I declare
Guess it could be a guilty conscience
Who'd a-thought that I could ever care
Looks like I'll never know
I'll never know the sleep of the just
[Chorus]
Have mercy Lord, have mercy
I just can't shed these blues
Both you and I know I can't be fixed
With bailing wire, nails, or screws
[Verse 3]
I thought I heard a voice calling
Outside my window at the break of day
Said be much obliged when you're leaving
Things ain't going my way
Looks like I'll never know
I'll never know the sleep of the just
[Verse 4]
So I been walking 'round in circles
Look at these holes in my shoes
The reason I'm leaving Houston:
Ain't nothin' here left I can use
Looks like I'll never know
I'll never know the sleep of the just
There always is consequences
For everything I do
I been awake here now all night
Shaking like the apostles used to do
Looks like I'll never know
I'll never know the sleep of the just
[Verse 2]
Each and every night is worrisome
These miseries cross my mind I declare
Guess it could be a guilty conscience
Who'd a-thought that I could ever care
Looks like I'll never know
I'll never know the sleep of the just
[Chorus]
Have mercy Lord, have mercy
I just can't shed these blues
Both you and I know I can't be fixed
[Verse 3]
I thought I heard a voice calling
Outside my window at the break of day
Said be much obliged when you're leaving
Things ain't going my way
Looks like I'll never know
I'll never know the sleep of the just
[Verse 4]
So I been walking 'round in circles
Look at these holes in my shoes
The reason I'm leaving Houston:
Ain't nothin' here left I can use
Looks like I'll never know
I'll never know the sleep of the just
