Lyrics

I've been up for such a long while
My brains are fried up; My work is piled up
I'm feeling kinda cranky. I just might snap
I guess it's time to take a nap.

The work-a-holic life is not for me.
My head is frazzled; can't take the hassle
I'm totally strung out. I just might snap
I guess it's time to take a nap.

Chorus: Oh if only I could catch a few zzz's
whooaa Give me a hammock between two trees
Or just a few minutes in my recliner
I can't think of anything finer
My jaw's gonna drop; my head starts to nod
I know it's time to rest my bod.
So gimme a break; I'm at the end of my fuse
I've just got to take a snooze.

Go get 'em; Work hard; American dream
I tell ya honey; We all need money
But when you're exhausted, your strength is zapped
You know you've got to take a nap. CHORUS

God says He'll give His beloved sleep
There's none that's wiser; He's my Advisor
So when you're worn out and just might snap (snap, snap, snap)
Darlin', won't you take a nap? CHORUS
