I'm gonna get up in the morning I believe I'll dust my broom I'm gonna get up in the morning I believe I'll dust my broom I'm gonna quit the gal I'm lovin' While my friend can have my room
I believe I believe my time aint long I believe I believe my time aint long I got a letter from my baby And she tried to break up our happy home
I don't want no woman To stay drunk all the time I don't want no woman To stay drunk all the time Well that's a no good darling About to drive me outta my mind
I'm gonna call my Miss Fanny She's my good girl over there I'm gonna call my Miss Fanny She's my good girl over there Well I can't find my baby She must be in Ethiopia somewhere
I'm gonna get up in the morning I believe I'll dust my broom I'm gonna get up in the morning I believe I'll dust my broom I'm gonna quit the gal I'm lovin' While my friend can have my room
I believe I believe my time aint long I believe I believe my time aint long I got a letter from my baby She said she'd break up our happy home
I'm gonna write me a letter I'm gonna telephone every town I know I'm gonna write me a letter Telephone every town I know Well she not in New Orleans she in East Monroe you know
I don't want no woman Stay drunk all the time I don't want no woman Stay drunk all the time That's a no good darlin She bout to make me loose my mind
I'm gonna call my Miss Fanny She's my good girl over there I'm gonna call my Miss Fanny She's my good girl over there Well it seems I can't find my baby She must be in Ethiopia somewhere
