Chorus
You’re gonna wake up some day and find you’ve been sleepin’
You’re gonna wake up some day and find that I’m gone
You needn’t think I’m gonna sit here waitin’ and weepin’
You can’t neglect me and expect me to care
Baby, beware! Oh!
You’re gonna wake up some day and think that you’re dreamin’
Wait’ll you see me out with soebody new
Mister Rip Van Winkle lost his sweetie because he was sleepin’
And the same thing’s gonna happen to you
2. It’s plain to see you’re sure of me
That way you act is a crime
And I’m aware that you’re not fair
I’m just bidin’ my time
You’ll be sorry and how
I’m tellin’ you now
