| I been a walkin', walkin' in the moonlight
|
| Trippin' in the starlight, Lord, and I’m feelin' down
|
| Walkin' in the shadows, sneakin' down a side road
|
| Come early mornin' I’ll be there on the edge of town
|
| I was a thinkin', thinkin' bout a good thing
|
| Thinkin' bout a sweet gleam, uum, in my honey’s eyes
|
| And I was a-sinkin', feelin' kinda lonesome
|
| Come early morning I’ll be home at my honey’s side
|
| I have drifted up across the mountain
|
| And I have stumbled down the other side
|
| And I’ve been tempted, tried and troubled
|
| Come early morning I’ll be home and satisfied
|
| She give me little lovin'
|
| Give me little sunshine
|
| Make me have a good time, Lord
|
| When I’m feelin' blue
|
| I couldn’t refuse her
|
| Well I couldn’t misuse her
|
| Come early mornin' I’ll be home
|
| With my honeydew
|
| I have drifted up across the mountains
|
| I have stumbled down the other side
|
| I’ve been tempted, tried and troubled
|
| Come early mornin' I’ll be home
|
| And satisfied |
