[Verse 1] Seventeen hours on a bus to Tennessee No gum on my seat ever gonna stop me From NYC to Kentucky So you don't gotta lift your finger We were making love 'til 4 a.m With a microwave pizza and a bottle of rye Remember when you told me you could be my best friend On a spit-shake promise? [Pre-Chorus 1] I guess I could've predicted how it would play out But I never could've imagined a complete blackout At seventeen hours on a bus to Tennessee For you and me, and— [Chorus] Ay, you sleep like a baby Ay, you sleep like a baby Fool me once, shame on you But fool me twice, shame on me Gonna sleep like a baby [Verse 2] My last 600 on a plane to LA Not one returned call, got me waiting on your birthday Wait, who's the cheerleader that I see Snappin' names and chasin' cleats? She gets your first-cla** ticket courtesy of 19 After all, I'm only 19
You got a lovin' machine [Pre-Chorus 2] You flew her down to Tennessee Go MIA in M-i-ami Hit your buddy over at TMZ At least you got your leak, something blonder than me At least you got to leak something mama can see But didn't your momma ever tell you don't lie to me? Seventeen hours on a bus to Tennessee Why you kissin her lips, on New Year's Eve, boy? [Chorus] Ay, you sleep like a baby Ay, you sleep like a baby Fool me once, shame on you But fool me twice, shame on me Gonna sleep like a baby [Bridge] I want it, she had it You want it, well, you got it, like "Extra! Extra! Read all about it" Socio-pathological, don't doubt it Oh no, no doubt about it, like— [Chorus] Ay, you sleep like a baby Ay, you sleep like a baby Fool me once, shame on you But f** me twice, shame on me Gonna sleep like a baby
