Sonny Boy Williamson - Early In The Morning lyrics

rate me

Now, when a little girl becomin' twelve years old

Beginin' to think she grown

Well, you can never catch that kinda

Little girl at home

But you have to go there early in the mornin'

Baby, 'bout the break of day

Now, you oughta see me grab the pillow

Where my baby used to lay

Now, that I've got a little woman

Her name is, Miss Kate

She told me to come to the house this mo'nin'

I got there about half past eight

She ask, 'I told you, come early in the mo'nin'

Baby, 'bout the break of day'

Now, ya 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 'n see you when I can'

You tell me, 'Come early in the mo'nin'

Baby, 'bout the break of day'

Now, you oughta see me grab the pillow

Where my baby used to lay

(harmonica & guitar)

Well now, I said, 'Look-a-here, woman (good!)

I ain't gonna fool 'round wit' you, no mo'

I know you don't love me

You out, 'round with Mr. So 'n So

You tell me, 'Come early in the mo'nin'

Baby, 'bout the break of day'

Now, ya oughta see me grab the pillow

Where my baby used to lay.
