The 3am shanty #NaPoWriMoDayFour

It's 3am and I'm wide awake
It's 3am, there's no mistake
It's 3am and I'm wide awake
It's too early in the morning

Wishing for sleep
    Nothing happening
Praying for sleep
    Nothing happening
Begging for sleep
    Nothing happening
It's too early in the morning

Tried a warm drink, didn't work
Tried a short walk, felt a burk
Tried writing poems, going beserk
It's too early in the morning

Day three's challenge by NaPoWriMo.net was to write a sea shanty; it didn't happen yesterday but perhaps this is what 3am is for.  Designed to the tune "what to do with the drunken sailor".
