Lyrics Joe Williams

Joe Williams

Early in the Morning

Early in the morning and I can't get right

Had a little date with my baby last night

Now it's early in the morning (early in the morning)

Well, it's early in the morning (early in the morning)

Now it's early in the morning

And I ain't got nothing but the blues

Went to all the places where we used to go

Went to your house, but you don't live there no more

Now it's early in the morning (early in the morning)

Well, it's early in the morning (early in the morning)

Early in the morning

And I ain't got nothing but the blues

Went to your friend's house, but she was out

Knocked on your father's door and he began to shout, "get out there, boy"

Early in the morning (early in the morning)

Early in the morning (early in the morning)

Early in the morning

And I ain't got nothing but the blues

Went to Dooky Chase to get something to eat

Waiter looked at me and said, "You sure look beat"

Now it's early in the morning (early in the morning)

Early in the morning (early in the morning)

Well, it's early in the morning

And I ain't got nothing but the blues

Well, it's early in the morning

And I ain't got nothing but the blues

Well, it's early in the morning

And I ain't got nothing but the blues
