Early in the mornin? and I can?t get it right   Had a little date with my baby last night   Now it's early in the morning, early in the morning   Early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues      I went to all the places where we used to go   Even went to his house but he don't live there no more   Now it's early in the morning, early in the morning   Early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues      I went to the lions den but he was not about   Knocked on his mother's door and she began to shout   That it?s early in the morning, early in the morning   Early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues      I went to Dooky Chase to get something to eat   The waiter looked at me and said, "Girl, you sure look beat"   Now it's early in the morning, so early in the morning   Early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues      I had a lot of money when I started out   Couldn?t find my baby, now my money?s run out   Now, it's early in the morning, so early in the morning   Early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues      It?s early in the morning, so early in the morning   Say it's early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues   Early in the morning, so early in the morning   Early in the morning and I ain't got nothing but the blues
