John Wesley Harding Millionaire's Dream lyrics

I'm a quiet guy, lead a quiet life
Got a quiet way and a quiet wife
I don't say so much, if there's nothing to say
I just watch the silence blow the day away

I put the TV on but there's nothing to see
Just people talking endlessly
About things to buy, more shows to see
Might mean something to someone, means nothing to me

And when I go to bed, then I sing to her
And I go to sleep, dream of dreaming
Dream of dreaming

Walk down the street, wish I'd stayed in
I shoulda taken the car out for a spin
People ask for money, I say I'm sorry for you
I'm in debt for life, I should be begging too

And when I go to bed then I sing to her
And I go to sleep, dream of dreaming
Dream of dreaming, dream of dreaming


Had a dream that I was dreaming
I woke up with a start
A millionaire with a broken heart, not me

So I don't want nothing and I don't need much
'Cause I'm a millionaire with a Midas touch
The bank, God and tomorrow lay siege my home
And I wish they'd just leave us alone

And when I go to bed, then I sing to her
And I go to sleep, dream of dreaming
Dream of dreaming, dream of dreaming
Dream of dreaming

Dream of dreaming, dream of dreaming
Dream of dreaming, dream of dreaming
Yes, I dream, yes, I dream

Dream of dreaming, dream of dreaming
