I’m gonna get up in the morning   I believe I'll dust my broom   I’m gonna get up in the morning   I believe I'll dust my broom   I’m gonna quit the gal I’m lovin’   While my friend can have my room      I believe I believe my time aint long   I believe I believe my time aint long   I got a letter from my baby   And she tried to break up our happy home      Solo      I don’t want no woman   To stay drunk all the time   I don’t want no woman   To stay drunk all the time   Well that’s a no good darling   About to drive me outta my mind      I’m gonna call my Miss Fanny   She's my good girl over there   I’m gonna call my Miss Fanny   She's my good girl over there   Well I can’t find my baby   She must be in Ethiopia somewhere      I’m gonna get up in the morning   I believe I'll dust my broom   I’m gonna get up in the morning   I believe I'll dust my broom   I’m gonna quit the gal I’m lovin’   While my friend can have my room      I believe I believe my time aint long   I believe I believe my time aint long   I got a letter from my baby   She said she’d break up our happy home      I’m gonna write me a letter   I’m gonna telephone every town I know   I’m gonna write me a letter   Telephone every town I know   Well she not in New Orleans she in East Monroe you know      I don’t want no woman   Stay drunk all the time   I don’t want no woman   Stay drunk all the time   That’s a no good darlin   She bout to make me loose my mind      I’m gonna call my Miss Fanny   She's my good girl over there   I’m gonna call my Miss Fanny   She's my good girl over there   Well it seems I can’t find my baby   She must be in Ethiopia somewhere
