Early in the Morning (1996 Remastered Version)

Now, when a girl reach the age of eighteen

She begin to think she grown

And that's the kind of gal

That you don't ever keep at home

She said, "Come early in the morning

Maybe by the break of day"

Well, you ought to see me hug that pillow

Where my baby used to lay

Oh, it was one drink of wine, ooh

And two drinks of gin, yeah

That cute little gal

She's got me in the shape that I'm in

She said, "Come early in the morning

Maybe by the break of day"

Well, you ought to see me hug my pillow

Where my baby used to lay

Well, I passed by that juke joint

I peeped all through the door

She was doing the boogie-woogie bop

In the middle of the floor

She said, "Come early in the morning

Maybe by the break of day", yeah

Well, you ought to see me hug my pillow

Where my baby used to lay

Well, I got a little girl

Her name's Miss Mary Ann

If I can't come and see you in the morning, baby

Please tell me when I can

She said, "Come early in the morning

Maybe by the break of day"

Well, you ought to see me hug my pillow

Where my baby used to lay
