The less I bear this heavy load
Upon my back it takes its toll
The road is steep and rough
Full of rocks and sticks and bumps
And Iâ¦
I need you sleep
Counting sheep
Focus, breathe deep
Living on coffee and cigarettes
A stack of bills I ainât paid yet
When will I get some rest?
I could not feel more alone
A heavy heart and broken home
Tell your momma I give her my best, and
Send that kid all I have left
Iâm off to sleep
These hours, these hours I keep
Counting sheep
Focus, breathe deep
Stay with me
Ignoring the hours in front of the others
Still I see
A faith in the power, but I canât rest now
Stay with me
Hold me under this blissful slumber
These hours that I keep
But still I canât sleep
Counting sheep
Focus, breathe deep
Alas, I bear this heavy load
Upon my back it takes its toll
Counting Sheep
