Mendy Never Sleeps – Porter Wagoner & Dolly Parton
By
Mendy is sixteen and uncontrollable Mendy is only a child Mendy is in with the in-crowd Mendy is ever so wild Mendy’s hair hangs straight and long Mendy feels this is a must Mini skirts and many friends and many horrors for us
Mendy finds a plenty to do but Mendy never sleeps Mendy slips out of the house in the evening when the sun is sinking Mendy is out with the in-crowd Mendy is smoking and drinking There’s a different shine in Mendy’s eyes And the color is gone from her cheeks Mendy is a swinger but Mendy never sleeps
Mendy never sleeps and Mendy is growing weak Mendy lies lifeless and limpid are her eyes Now oh Mendy, please, don’t go to sleep
