Don Williams – Come Early Morning lyrics

I been a walkin’, walkin’ in the moonlight
Trippin’ in the starlight, Lord, and I’m feelin’ down
Walkin’ in the shadows, sneakin’ down a side road
Come early mornin’ I’ll be there on the edge of town

I was a thinkin’, thinkin’ bout a good thing
Thinkin’ bout a sweet gleam, uum, in my honey’s eyes
And I was a-sinkin’, feelin’ kinda lonesome
Come early morning I’ll be home at my honey’s side

I have drifted up across the mountain
And I have stumbled down the other side
And I’ve been tempted, tried and troubled
Come early morning I’ll be home and satisfied

[Instrumental]

She give me little lovin’
Give me little sunshine
Make me have a good time, Lord
When I’m feelin’ blue
I couldn’t refuse her
Well I couldn’t misuse her
Come early mornin’ I’ll be home
With my honeydew
I have drifted up across the mountains
I have stumbled down the other side
I’ve been tempted, tried and troubled
Come early mornin’ I’ll be home
And satisfied…
