Get Up, Jake — текст песни (Band, The)

Get up, Jake, t`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

Get up, Jake, t`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

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

Get up, Jake, t`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

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
