Counting Sheep Lyrics

Collin Raye Counting Sheep

I?m counting the cracks on the wall by my bed
'Cause I can?t get to sleep and my mother said
To try counting sheep as they?re jumpin? the fence
But the fence has a hole and the sheep snuck out

Their tails are wagging
Back and forth in celebration
Farmer Sam is calling out their names

But he?s yelling to loud and I can?t get to sleep
And it?s all on account of those runaway sheep
Now they?re out in the woods eating ice-cream and cake
Dancing ?round and around that?s why I?m awake

Unless I?m dreaming
This is all too silly to be really happening
They?ve all got party hats

Every one of those sheep has a bell on it?s neck
Going ring-a-ding-ding, I?m a nervous wreck
They?re ringing so loud tell me why it won?t stop
A familiar sound just like my alarm clock

Hey, no wonder
I can hear Mom say good morning
Time for breakfast now tell me what you dreamed

Sweet, sweet, sweet
Sweet dreams
