Early in the morning and I can´t get right, now
Had a little date with my baby last night, now

And it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)

I know it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning (early in the morning)
Hey, I am not got nothing but the blues (blues)

I went to all the places where we used to go
I went to her house but she don´t live there no more

And it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
I know it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning (early in the morning)
Hey, I am not got nothing but the blues (blues)

I went to her girlfriends house, but she was out
I knocked on her fathers door and he began to shout, "Get away from here boy"

And it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
I know it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning (early in the morning)
Hey, I am not got nothing but the blues (blues)

I went to Dukie Chance´s to get something to eat
The waitress looked at me and said, "Ray, you sure look beat"

And it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
I know it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning (early in the morning)
Hey, I am not got nothing but the blues (blues)

I had a lot of money when I started out
Can´t find my baby now my money run out, now

And it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
I know it´s early in the morning (early in the morning)
Early in the morning (early in the morning)
Hey, I am not got nothing but the blues (blues)

Yeah, early in the morning (early in the morning, yeah)
I ain´t got nothin´ but the blues, now
