I'm So Tired
Written by John during his stay at Rishikesh after 3 weeks of virtual sleeplessness. There is also a mention of his addiction to cigarettes and a curse on Sir Walter Raleigh who is referred to as "a stupid get".

I'm so tired...I haven't slept a wink
I'm so tired...my mind is on the blink
I wonder should I get up
Or fix myself a drink
No, no, no
I'm so tired...I don't know what to do
I'm so tired...my mind is set on you
I wonder should I call you
But I know what you would do
You'd say I'm puttin' you on
But it's no joke...it's doin' me harm
You know I can't sleep
I can't stop my brain
You know it's three weeks
I'm goin' insane
You know I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind
I'm so tired...I'm feeling so upset
Although I'm so tired
I'll have another cigarette
And curse Sir Walter Raleigh
He was such a stupid get
You'd say I'm puttin' you on
But it's no joke it's doin' me harm
You know I can't sleep
I can't stop my brain
You know it's three weeks
I'm goin' insane
You know I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind
I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind
I'd give you everything I've got
For a little peace of mind
