She called to me
Meet me at the border
Wake me up when my papers are in order

Lord I don't want to bring you down
No, I never meant to give you a frown
I'm just sleeping around the corner

Lord I don't want to bring you down
No, I never meant to give you a frown
I'm just sleeping around the corner

We made sweet love over and over
She said oh sweet darling
I'm your little red rover

Lord I don't want to bring you down
No, I never meant to give you a frown
I'm just sleeping around the corner

I'm just a kiss away
From where you don't know
If you want me to stay
You got let me
You got to let me go

She said to me, I don't mean to scorn you
But I've been lying
And I've been too scared to warn you

Lord I don't want to bring you down
No, I never meant to give you a frown
I'm just sleeping around the corner

Lord I don't want to bring you down
No, I never meant to give you a frown
I'm just sleeping around the corner
