Now, when a little girl becomin` twelve years old
Beginin` to think she grown
Well, you can never catch that kinda
Little girl at home
But you have to go there early in the mornin`
Baby, `bout the break of day
Now, you oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay
Now, that I`ve got a little woman
Her name is, Miss Kate
She told me to come to the house this mo`nin`
I got there about half past eight
She ask, `I told you, come early in the mo`nin`
Baby, `bout the break of day`
Now, ya oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay
I said, `Look-a-here, woman
You fool with too many men
I can`t never come to see you in the evenin
I have to come `n see you when I can`
You tell me, `Come early in the mo`nin`
Baby, `bout the break of day`
Now, you oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay
(harmonica & guitar)
Well now, I said, `Look-a-here, woman (good!)
I ain`t gonna fool `round wit` you, no mo`
I know you don`t love me
You out, `round with Mr. So `n So
You tell me, `Come early in the mo`nin`
Baby, `bout the break of day`
Now, ya oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay.
