"Sleepin' On The Foldout" Lyrics

(Brad Paisley/Chris DuBois)

Sleepin' on the foldout
Thanks to me and my big mouth
Why did I do what I did
I shoulda known better than to lie
But it's too late and so tonight I'm
Sleepin' on the foldout sofa-bed

She wanted me to go and see her family
But I told her that I had to work
I never dreamed she'd get home so dang early
And she caught me cleanin' fish
Out on our back porch
And now I'm

Sleepin' on the foldout
Thanks to me and my big mouth
Why did I do what I did
I shoulda known better than to lie
But it's too late and so tonight I'm
Sleepin' on the foldout sofa-bed

--- Instrumental ---

I can't believe they call this thing a mattress
It's 2 a.m. and I'm wide awake
Lookin' back I shoulda just been honest
Instead of tellin' her the whole staff
Spent the day out on the lake
And now I'm

Sleepin' on the foldout
Thanks to me and my big mouth
Why did I do what I did
I shoulda known better than to lie
But it's too late and so tonight I'm
Sleepin' on the foldout sofa-bed
Yeah, I'm sleepin' on the foldout sofa-bed...
