If I Don't Be There By Morning |
| Blue sky upon the horizon, |
| Private eye is on my trail, |
| And if I don’t be there by morning |
| You know that I must have spent the night in jail. |
| I’ve been running from Memphis to L. A. |
| Had an appointment set sometime for today, |
| And if I don’t be there by morning |
| You know that I must have gone the other way. |
| Finding my way back to you girl, |
| Lonely and blue and mistreated too. |
| Sometimes I think of you girl, |
| Is it true that you think of me too? |
| I got a woman living in L. A. |
| I got a woman waiting for my pay, |
| And if I don’t be there by morning, |
| Pack my clothes, get down on your knees and pray. |
| I left my woman with a twenty dollar bill. |
| I left her waiting, I hope she’s waiting for me still. |
| If I don’t be there by morning |
| You know that I, I never will. |
