Wake awake, you sleepy [B]
dizzer,
Wake awake, [C#] it's a coming day,
Oh [F#] stick your head out [B] of the window,
See [C#] what your two lovers did.
[G#] [B] [F#]
[C#] [F#]
Some people say [B] that courting's pleasure,
[G#] Oh [F#] what pleasure do I [C#] see,
When the dearest girl in [B] this world,
[F#] Has done in turn her bike on me.
Oh wake awake, you sleepy [B]
dizzer,
[F#] Wake awake, it's a [C#] coming day,
Oh stick [F#] your head [B] out of the window,
[F#] See what your two lovers did.

There's no one in [B] the baller's two bedroom,
[F#] There's no one [A#m]
to sleep [C#] with me,
[F#] I got a wife [B] way up in heaven,
[F#] And the Lord knows she loves me.
Oh wake awake, you [B] sleepy dizzer,
[F#] Wake awake, it's a [C#] coming day,
Oh [F#] stick your head out [B] of the window,
[C#] See what your two [F#] lovers did.

You needn't you bother to [B] ask my papa,
[F#] He's in the room a [C#]-taking his rest,
And [F#] in his hand he [B] holds a weapon,
To kill [F#] the man that I love best.
