Sleepy Joe Lyrics By Herman S Hermits

    sleepy joe
    sleepy joe

    rise and shine sleepy joe
    now’s the time don’t you know
    to get into a new kind of dream
    you’ve been living alone
    with no bell telephone
    and you don’t have a shirt that is clean

    you can rest your head on the corner of your bed
    you can watch the world go by
    but you’re never gonna see
    what the other people see
    if you’re always gonna be a sleepy joe

    rise and shine sleepy joe
    there are places to go
    there are windows to clean on the way
    you’ve got nothing to lose
    but the shine on your shoes
    do the best things you can every day

    you can get upset at the way the people get
    you can turn your back on the crowd
    but you never gonna see
    what is absolutely real
    if you’re always gonna be a sleepy joe

    la la la la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe

    rise and shine sleepy joe
    now’s the time don’t you know
    to get into a new kind of dream
    you’ve been living alone
    with no bell telephone
    and you don’t have a shirt that is clean

    la la la la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe

    rise and shine sleepy joe
    there are places to go
    there are windows to clean on the way
    you’ve got nothing to lose
    but the shine on your shoes
    do the best things you can every day

    la la la la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
    la la la la la la la la la sleepy joe
