Early In The Morning

Now when a girl reach the age of eighteen
She begin to think she's grown
Now that's the kind of little girl
You can't never find at home

Now, come see me early in the morning
Lord have mercy, just about, just about the break of day
Oh, you want to see me hug my pillow
Where my baby used to lay

I passed by the juke joint
Beat danced to the dawn
Girl was doing the boogie-woogie now
In the middle of the floor

Now, come see me early in the morning
Oh baby, oh Lord, just about the break of day
Oh, you want to see me hug my pillow
Where my baby used to lay

One drink of wine
Two drinks of gin
Lord have mercy, young woman's puttin' me down
She ain't found me

Now, come see me early in the morning
Lord have mercy, oh child, just about the break of day
Listen to me
Oh, you want to see me hug my pillow
Where my baby used to lay
