Back when I was a kid
this has bothered me all my life.
How I could go to bed bed on the left
and wake up on the right.
You see I slept with three brothers
all of us in the same bed.
And believe me with my brothers
you did'nt cover up your head.
Well back to my story
and how I got bumps on my head.
Many mornings I rolled the wrong way
and rolled right out of bed.
I would look up at the bed
with wonder in my eyes.
I went to bed on the left
what am I doing on this side?
I finally figured it out
tho it took all my might.
How I would roll off the left
when I laid down on the right.
You see when the urge hit a brother
he would go outside.
Then he would tell me scoot over
and in my sleep I would slide.
One brother after the other
this would take place thru the night
Each one moving over
sliding me from the left to the right.
So thinking I had room
to turn over in bed
I would roll over
and bump the floor with my head.
So when your three years old
like I was back then.
Where your nigts sleep started
may not be where it ends.
