[Lyric] Early in the Morning (Joe Williams (Jazz))

[Intro]
Thank you
Here's a song that the great Louis Jordan made famous many years ago
About a sad fella on a Saturday night that couldn't find one special girl

[Verse 1]
It's early in the morning and I can't get right
Had a little date with my baby last night
Now it's early in the morning
I mean early in the morning
Well it's early in the morning
And I ain't got nothing but the blues

[Verse 2]
I went to all the places we used to go
I went to our house and she don't live there no more
Now it is early in the morning
I mean early in the morning
Early in the morning
And I ain't got nothing but thе blues
[Verse 3]
I went to your girlfriend's housе but she was out
I knocked on her mother's door and she began to shout
"Get away, from there son"
Early in the morning
I mean early in the morning
Early in the morning
And I ain't got nothing but the blues

[Verse 4]
Can't find my baby and it's early in the morning
I want to see my baby this morning
Where is my woman this morning
Have you seen the darling this morning?
If you see her will you just tell her that Joe wants to see her in the worst way
This morning

[Verse 5]
I went to restaurant to get something to eat
The waitress looked at me and said
"Joe, you sure look beat"
I said baby it's early in the morning
Matter a fact you've been getting to look kinda good to me bout' this time in the morning
Early in the morning
And I ain't got nothing but the blues
[Verse 6]
I had a lot of money when I started out
And then I couldn't find my baby, now my money's run out
Now it's early in the morning
I mean it's after twelve in the A.M baby

[Outro]
It's early in the morning
And I ain't got nothing but the blues
Well, it's early in the morning
And I ain't got nothing but the blues
