She Even Woke Me Up To Say Goodbye (Live On The Ed Sullivan Show, November 16, 1969)

Mornings come and, Lord, my mind is achin', yes it is

Sunshine standing quietly at my door

Just like the dawn, my heart is silently breaking

With my tears it goes tumbling to the floor

Once again the whole town will be talking, yes they will

Lord I've seen the pity that's in their eyes

They could never understand it's her sorrow, it's not a man

And no matter what they say, we know she tried

Baby's packed her soft things and she's left me, she's left me, she's left me

And I know she didn't mean to make me cry

It's not her heart, Lord, it's her mind she didn't mean to be unkind

Why she even woke me up to say goodbye

It's not her heart, Lord, it's her mind she didn't mean to be unkind

Why she even woke me up to say goodbye

Goodbye, baby
