Mornin` After Baby Let Me Down — текст песни (Loretta Lynn)

The alarm clock woke my sleeping but I lay there for a minute
With a million cobwebs clinging to my brain
I stopped that bell from ringin` in the times it takes a heartbeat
Then I settled back and closed my eyes again
I reached out for my baby for some early mornin` lovin`
Then the terrible truth came staggering through my head
There was just an empty pillow and the mem`ry of his kisses
Baby wasn`t there beside me in the bed
It`s the morning after baby let me down
It`s the daybreak and the heartbreak that I found
Only silence to torment me no strong hands to touch me gently
It`s the mornin` after baby let me down

There was nothing to hold on to but the sheets that fell around me
And I started into trembling like a leaf
How could he ever leave me he was more than just a lover
And he knew all the ways to make me feel complete
I can taste the salty teardrops God it`s gettin` hard to swallow
Hope a glass of wine will take his love away
Got no appetite for eatin` just a sick and empty feeling
What a good for nothing way to start the day
It`s the morning after baby...
