Thread Name: Lyr Req: Walking In My Sleep
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Walking In My Sleep, Prairie Ramblers
II thought about starting a new thread, but will give this a try ffirst. I've been trying to figure out the lyrics to the Prairie Ramblers version of "Walking in My Sleep" for some time. Their version also seems to have different lyrics than posted here and others I have found. It tells a story about a guy walking into his girlfriends room in his sleep "with no clothes on". Her husband is there, so he runs out into the street "with no clothes on". The cops chase him, he ends up in jail "with no clothes on". It really is quite funny.


I just can't make out the chorus and several of the versus from the recording that I have.

It sounds something like:

Walkin in my sleep,
Walkin in my sleep,
Wasn't going to take a four day trip
Walkin in my sleep.

As you can tell the band also sings "With no clothes on" throughout the song.

Can someone help, and post the lyrics? If you have the chords and can post them too, that would be like putting icing on the cake.

Thanks
