Early in the Mornin' Songtext
von Jerry Dixon

It′s early in the morning and I can't get right
I had a little date with my baby last night
And now it′s early, it's early in the morning
It's early in the morning and I ain′t got nothing but the blues

I went to all the places where she used to go
I even went to her house but she don′t live there no more
And now it's early, it′s early in the morning
It's early in the morning and I ain′t got nothing but the blues

I went to see a friend of hers but she was out
Knockin' on her mama′s door and she began to shout
Get away from here boy, don't you know what time it is?
Shh. I know, I know, I know
It's early in the morning and I ain′t got nothing but the blues


I went to Jenny Lou′s to get me something to eat
The waitress looked at me and said, "Oh boy you sure look beat"
I said "That's funny. I didn′t see none of your lip on the menu"
It's early in the morning and I ain′t got nothing but the blues

Because I had a lot of money when I started out
I couldn't find my baby, now my money′s run out
It's early
Early in the morning
It's early in the morning and I ain′t got nothing but the blues
It′s early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues

Well, if anybody asks me what about me and you
I′m gonna tell them I don't know what to do
Early, early in the morning
It′s early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues

It′s early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues

It's early in the morning and I ain′t got nothing but the blues
