Early In The Morning Songtext

von John Lee Williamson

(Sonny Boy Williamson I (John Lee))

Now when a little girl becomin' twelve years old
Beginnin' to think she's grown
Well you can never catch that kinda, little girl at home
But ya have to go down early in the mornin'
Baby 'bout the break of day
Now ya oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay

Now that I've got a new woman
Her name is Miss Kate
She told me to come to the house this mornin'
I got there about half past eight
She says, "I told you come early in the mornin' "
Baby 'bout the break of day
Now you oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay

I said, "Look-a-here woman, you fool with too many men,
I can't never come to see you in the evenin',
I have to, come see you when I can"
You tell come early in the mornin'
Baby 'bout the break of day
Now you oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay

Well I said, "Look-a-here woman,
I ain't gonna fool around wit' you no mo',
I know you don't love me, you out an 'round Mister So an So
You tell me, come early in the mornin'
Baby 'bout the break of day
Now you oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay
