I’m Gonna Sleep With One Eye Open (Live) l The Earls of Leicester chords
Start Jamming...
We're going to do a song for you now that Flatt & Scruggs did on the Opry one night and we're
quickly told that they could no longer do that song anymore.
That it was a little too
risque for the audience on the radio.
I think they wrote it right on the records over here at WSM,
do not play.
It's called I'm Gonna Sleep With One Eye Open.
From now on.
