Footsore this morning At the break of day Not the curtains won't part Not the curtains won't part He left his fingersprints Dull trails upon a heart Yeah weary come this morning Slid on his black boots Settled and stayed Stettled and stayed Envy come to live with me He looked into my head Spoke my conversations Come to sleep with me in my bed Trouble, oh he came this morning Called out my name And covered me with shame Oh trouble oh trouble Weary walkin' over me Softly he won't tread Broke into my centre With his hard heart Led me onto shelter This shelter is my home I borrow no light
I know no treasured sights I see no-one No-one sees me Envy come to live with me, etc.
I know you I know you I know trouble I know trouble Footsore come this morning, etc. Trouble come this morning At the break of day Now the company I'me keeping Has change my name
