Asleep At The Wheel Lyrics

It's two in the mornin',
I'm tired as hell.
What am I doin'
behind the wheel?

The lights have all blurred
into a row.
How long I'll be up,
I just don't know.

<I>(Chorus)</I>
I'm falling asleep,
asleep at the wheel,
this feels like a dream
but this is real.

I've got a lot on my mind,
I've been driving all night.
You can bet I'll be driving
when out comes the light.

I've been on the road so long
that I'm gonna crack.
I've been on the road
longer than Jack Kerouac.

<I>(Chorus)</I>

I've had too much coffee to drink
caffeine's got to my brain, I can't think.
I don't think I'll make it this time.

<I>(Chorus)</I>

I've had too much coffee to drink
caffeine's got to my brain, I can't think.
I don't think I'll make it this time.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
