I'm gonna take you down Deep down to the front lines
You woke up this morning Got yourself a gun, Mama always said you'd be The Chosen One. She said: You're one in a million You've got to burn to shine, But you were born under a bad sign With a blue moon in your eyes
You woke up this morning All that love had gone Your Papa never told you About right and wrong
But you're looking good, baby I believe you're feeling fine,(shame about it) Born under a bad sign With a blue moon in your eyes
(Chorus) You woke up this morning Got a blue moon in your eyes You woke up this morning Got a blue moon in your eyes
You woke up this morning The world turned upside down Lord above, thing's ain't been the same Since the blues walked into town But you're one in a million You've got that shotgun shine (shame about it) Born under a bad sign With a blue moon in your eyes You woke up this morning Got a blue moon in your eyes You woke up this morning Got a blue moon in your eyes
When you woke up this morning everything was gone By half past ten your head was going ding-dong Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes Like a voice trying to tell you there's something you should know Last night you were flying but today you're so low Ain't it times like these that make you wonder if You'll ever know the meaning of things as they appear to the others; Wives, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers Don't you wish you didn't function, don't you wish you Didn't think beyond the next paycheck and the next little drink? Well you do so make up your mind to go on, �?�¢??cos When you woke up this morning everything you had was gone
Woke up this morning Woke up this morning Woke up this morning You want to be the Chosen One
Woke up this morning Woke up this morning Woke up this morning You got yourself a gun
