A 38-year-old man was struck with a metal pipe and robbed as he slept on a Manhattan train late Sunday, cops said.

The victim was snoozing on a northbound A train at 181st Street in Hudson Heights around 9:30 p.m. when three suspects approached him and one of them struck him with a metal pipe, authorities said.

The crew swiped his cellphone before fleeing to the street, cops said.

Word to the wise:  don't sleep on the subway, ever, unless you truly have nothing left to lose (or reek so badly that nobody is likely to go through your things while you snooze).
