Lyrics and translation

Original

I can dream in a field, I can dream in a dive bar

Dream in a rusted-out truck down in Wichita

Dream in a cow pasture, a cemetery, Dollar Store

Dream in a big city and in a civil war

I could dream all day, and I could go all night

Well, I can dream in a honky tonk and in a leaky tent

Dream away the madness seepin' through the internet

Dream about horses, falling dominoes

Dream about a blackjack table up in Buffalo

Dream up and down and side-to-side

Don't wake me up, I ain't up for that

The way this world is going, ain't where I'm at

And sooner or later we'll all be dead

I'd rather be living it up in my head

Don't wake me up, I ain't up for that

I can dream in a factory and in a liquor store

Deam in a bowling alley laid out on the floor

Dream at the Claremont Lounge in Atlanta

Dream in a graveyard down in Savannah

I can dream with my eyes closed or open wide

I can dream in a trailer park or in a subdivision

Dream away the politician screaming on the television

Dream in a Waffle House down in Kentucky

Dreamin up bad luck even when I'm lucky

I can dream in color and black and white

Don't wake me up, I ain't up for that

The way this world is going ain't where I'm at

And sooner or later, we'll all be dead

And I'd rather be living up in my head

So don't wake me up, I ain't up for that (tell 'em, boys)

I can dream in a snowstorm stuck out in Bozeman

Dream in the drunk tank even while I'm buzzin'

Dream in a cantina, rodeo, music hall

Dream in a truck stop, Midwest strip mall

I can dream inside-out and backwards too

Well, I can dream in French, I can dream in Spanish

I can dream with the subtitles on in Japannish

Dream in a dojo somewhere down in Tokyo

A two-star sushi bar, listenin' to the radio

I can dream in a subway car at the end of the line

Don't wake me up, I ain't up for that

The way this world is going ain't where I'm at

And sooner or later we'll all be dead

And I'd rather be living up in my head

So don't wake me up, I ain't up for that

Don't wake me up, I ain't up for that

Ain't up for that

Ain't up for that

Wake me up
