Somebody's Calling Me

  • Somebody's calling me to be my girl
    Somebody's calling me to be my girl
    But my hands don't work, they're more like feet
    And the wake-up call, "Go back to sleep"

    Babe, come with me
    And I'll take you to the place I sleep
    Oh, darling, come with me
    And I'll show you the place I sleep

    Somebody's phoning me to be my girl
    Somebody's phoning me to be my girl
    But the phone won't ring when I'm on the street
    And my heart won't beat when I'm half asleep

    Somebody's texting me to be my girl
    Constantly texting me to be my girl
    But the text won't take away nights that creep
    And my mouth won't move when I'm in too deep

    Babe, come with me
    And I'll take you to the place I sleep
    Oh, darling, come with me
    And I'll show you the place I sleep

    Alright

    Somebody's calling me into their work
    Wrapped up and full of good inside their work
    But the car won't start when I'm half asleep
    And the kids don't cry when you're on your feet

    Babe, come with me
    And I'll show you the place I sleep
    Oh, darling, come with me
    And I'll take you to the place I live
    The place I live
    The place I live
    The place I live
    This is where I live Writer/s: James Jeremiah Murphy
