Well did you ever sleep at the foot of the bed when the weather was whizzin` cold
When the wind was a howlin` round the house and the moon was yeller as gold
And you give your good warm mattress up to Aunt Lizzie and Uncle Fred
How too many kinfolks on a bad night and you went to the foot of the bed
Well I could always wait till the old folks ate and eat the leavin`s with grace
The teacher could keep me after school I`d still have a smile on my face
I could wear the big girls` wornout clothes or let sister have my sled
But it always did get my nanny goat to sleep at the foot of the bed
[ ac.guitar ]
It was fine enough when kinfolks come and the kid brought brand new games
You could see how fat all the old folks was and learn all the babies` names
Had biscuits and custard and chicken pie we all got Sunday fed
But I always knew when nighttime come I was headed for the foot of the bed
Now they say some folks don`t know what it is havin` company all over the place
To rassle for cover on a winter night with a big foot settin` in your face
Or cold toenails a scratchin` your back and the footboard scrubbin` your head
Well I`ll tell the world you ain`t lost a thing never sleepin` at the foot of the bed
Well I`ve done it over and over again in this land of the brave and the free
And in this all fired battle of life it`s left its mark on me
For I`m always a strugglin` around at the foot instead of forgin` ahead
And I don`t think it`s caused from a doggone thing
But a sleepin` at the foot of the bed Send " A Sleepin At The Foot Of The Bed" Ringtone to your Cell
