Lyrics Going Back to Bed - Tony Joe White

Monday mornin', I'm standing in the face
So many things that I ought to be doing today
For all the paper in the trash, all the bad news read

Monday ain't happenin', I'm goin' back to bed
Last Friday in the house, I was doin' alright
Party goin' on, and then accident Saturday night
I keep back on Sunday, took my day of rest
But I still got a feeling that I need to go back to bed

There's so many possibilities of breaking new grounds
But the responsibilities can bring me down
And I don't want something like that hangin' over my head
'Cause you never know when you might have to go back to bed

Dark clouds rollin' and it's like it's comin' a storm
Baby still sleepin', keepin' my place warm
I could snuggle in beside her, can't get it out of my head
Just another good reason I'm goin' back to bed

Goin' back to bed
