Get Up Jake |
| Get Up, Jake, it’s late in the mornin' |
| The rain is pourin' and we got work to do |
| Get Up, Jake, there’s no need a-lyin' |
| You tell me that you’re dyin', but I know it’s not true |
| Now, me and Jake, we work down on the river |
| On the ferry «Baltimore» |
| And when Jake don’t rise up in the mornin' |
| People lined up all along the shore |
| Crap game will take you to the cleaners |
| Rye whiskey to the grave |
| River Woman don’t you come no closer |
| 'Cause me and Jake got no time to save, Oh, oh |
| Dirty Dan he came up from Savannah |
| Carried a mean streak in his eye |
| Now, him and Jake both wanted Annabella |
| I guess one man here has got to die |
| Get Up, Jake, it’s late in the mornin' |
| The rain is pourin' and we got work to do |
| Get Up, Jake, there’s no need a-dyin' |
| Annabelle’s cryin' and it’s all for you |
