Early in the mornin' Early in the mornin' I'm callin' you to I'm callin' you to Please come home Yes, I guess I could make it without you If I just didn't feel so all alone
Don't let me down Don't let me down I won't let you down I won't let you down No I won't You know I can if you can, honey But, honey, please don't
I got my black dog barkin' Black dog barkin' Yes it is now Yes it is now Outside my yard Yes, I could tell you what he means If I just didn't have to try so hard
Your mama's workin' Your mama's moanin' She's cryin' you know She's tryin' you know You better go now Well, I'd tell you what she wants But I just don't know how
Fifteen jugglers Fifteen jugglers Five believers Five believers All dressed like men Tell yo' mama not to worry because They're just my friends
Early in the mornin' Early in the mornin' I'm callin' you to I'm callin' you to Please come home Yes, I could make it without you If I just didn't feel so all alone
