Half Asleep at the Wheel

I'm like a blind man driving, down both sides of the road
I got nine hours behind me, I got nine more to go
I'm half asleep at the wheel
I'm half asleep at the wheel, but I'm only half a day away

I got my foot down to the floorboards, I'm in a one care race
While my radio is slapping country tunes across my face
I'm half asleep at the wheel
I'm half asleep at the wheel, but I'm only half a day away

Well these pretzel sticks at Denny's don't give me much relief
I got one eye on the State Patrol, the other eye is asleep
I'm half asleep at the wheel
I'm half asleep at the wheel, but I'm only half a day away

With my eyes part open dreaming, about sleeping in my bed
Sinking deep into my pillow, till I gently lose my head
I'm half asleep at the wheel
I'm half asleep at the wheel, but I'm only half a day away

Oh this coffee just ain't working but I'll try another cup
If my baby were here with me she'd know how to keep me up
I'm half asleep at the wheel
I'm half asleep at the wheel, but I'm only half a day away

I got all my windows open, got my head out in the wind
I got J.C. on my dashboard, just in case I need a friend
I'm half asleep at the wheel
I'm half asleep at the wheel, but I'm only half a day away

My head is getting heavy, my eyes are killing me
If I don't keep them open, I'll be looking up a tree
I'm half asleep at the wheel
I'm half asleep at the wheel, but I'm only half a day away
