The Devotions – Rip Van Winkle lyrics
Wowee, ha, ha, ha
A strike

Bom bom bom bom...

Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Sleep, sleep, sleep

Bom bom bom bom...

He fell asleep
In the woods one day
Spent twenty years
Of his life that way

Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Sleep, sleep, sleep

That nagging wife
Gets all of his coin
None of his friends
Did he ever join

Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Sleep, sleep, sleep

Those little elves
Bowled on the green
Dream, would dream, dream

Oh, well, he left
His nagging wife now
He slept for twenty years
Didn't bother to wake up
He grew a long white beard

This is how the story goes
Listen, my children
And you will hear

He fell asleep
In the woods one day
Spent twenty years
Of his life that way

Sleep, sleep, sleep

That nagging wife
Gets all of his coin
None of his friends
Did he ever join

Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Doot doot doota do do

Bom bom bom bom...

Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Sleep, sleep, sleep
Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Sleep, sleep, sleep

Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Slept his life away
Rip Van Winkle, Rip Van Winkle
Slept his life away

Bom bom bom bom...
