I Didn't Sleep a Wink

Willie Hugh Nelson (pronounced /wɪli nɛlsən /; born April 30, 1933) is an American country music singer-songwriter, as well as an author, poet, actor, and activist. The critical success of the album Shotgun Willie (1973), combined with the critical and commercial success of Red Headed Stranger (1975) and Stardust (1978), made Nelson one of the most recognized artists in country music. He was one of the main figures of outlaw country, a subgenre of country music that developed at the end of the 1960s as a reaction to the conservative restrictions of the Nashville sound. Nelson has acted in over 30 films, co-authored several books, and has been involved in activism for the use of biofuels and the legalization of marijuana. more »

Didn't sleep a wink last night,
'Cause you walked out the night before.
Just been sittin' here, rottin', hoping you'd come knockin',
Knocking at my door.

Watched the moon pass by my window,
The stars faded out of sight.
The sun came into view, an' still I thought of you,
An' I didn't sleep a wink last night.

Tryin' to remember what I'd done,
To make you treat me so.
What have I been guilty of?
Well, I'd just like to know.

Thought if we could talk it over,
Maybe I could make things right.
'Cause until I'm forgiven, I'm exisitin', I'm not livin',
An' I didn't sleep a wink last night.
I didn't sleep a wink last night.
