I didn't sleep again last night
and I'd like to discuss the matter.
The nerves to which I'm strung are tight
and I'm as beat as a bowl of batter.
If old man Rip Van Winkle thought his long sleep was a curse,
I know how the old man felt, because I've got his problem in reverse.
10432 sheep, how long can I toss like this?
10433 sheep, what did you put in that kiss?
I've tried all the rememdies, the well known good advice.
I took a hot tub and an alcohol rub and did the alphabet backwards twice.
10434 sheep we'd better get married soon.
10435 I'll never hold out til June.
How much do I love you, just in case you didn't know, you get a mental kiss with every sheep I count and I've still got a million sheep to go.
Man, " Did you ever try seeing a doctor?"
Lady, " A doctor? I went to see a noted Dr. who's a famous analyist, then he lead me to the couch and he gently took my wrist. I paid him $50.00."
Man, " Well that sounds pretty cheap?"
Lady, " Cheap, I should've paid him NOTHING, cause I still can't sleep.
(Duet) 10436 sheep and one sheep that got away."
Lady, " he took it on the lamb."
(duet)"10438 won't night ever turn to day?"
Lady, " Oh what a fool I am, how much do I love you, just in case you didn't know, you get a mental kiss with every sheep I count."
Men " Add it all together and that's a large amount."
Lady, " I've counted a trillion sheep."
Men, " How many?"
Lady, " I've counted a billion sheep."
Men, " how many?"
Lady, " Well at least a million sheep I know.
Men, " How the numbers grow.
Lady," and I've got about a million more to go.
Me, 10,000 8,000 7,000 6,000 5,000 4,000 3,000 2,000 1,000
