Sleep While I Drive

Music/Lyrics: Don de Leaumont

Southbound is our destination. 

Pack up the car and we’ll be gone.

The road just don’t seem so lonely. 

With you along to sing my songs.

Swapping off our jokes and stories,

told a million times before.

Another break at the rest stop.

Only have about 200 more…

Chorus:      300 miles behind us, 300 more stare me in the face.

And I’m just happy that you’re with me for the ride.

It’s alright if you sleep while I drive.

The sun has set on the horizon.

You begin to yawn but it’s alright.

Orion standing right before me in the sky,

His sword and belt, guide me in the night.

Chorus

As I travel down this highway

With you sleeping by my side

I think this trip will be a good one,

Since you’ve joined me for the ride.
