Early in the Morning

I remember Grandpa telling me that I was born

As the sun was comin' up early in the morn.

Told me I was born

Early in the morn.

When you lift your eyes and

See the sun a-risin'

On the far horizon

Early in the mornin'.

(Early in the mornin')

It was early in the day when I set out to roam.

Kissed my love, and went to seek my fortune far from home.

I set out to roam

far away from home.

When you lift your eyes and

See the sun a-risin'

On the far horizon

Early in the mornin'.

(Early in the mornin')

But today when I awoke I missed my darlin' so.

Gotta have her by my side forever more I know.

Need my darlin' so.

Evermore I know.

When you lift your eyes and

See the sun a-risin'

On the far horizon

Early in the mornin'.

(Early in the mornin')

So tomorrow I'll be leavin' at the break of day.

Gonna hurry to my love and there I'll always stay.

At the break of day.

There I'll always stay.

When you lift your eyes and

See the sun a-risin'

On the far horizon

Early in the mornin'.

(Early in the mornin')

Early in the mornin'.
