Jerry Lee Lewis - Mornin' After Baby Let Me Down lyrics

The alarm clock woke my sleepin' I lay there for a minute With a million cobwebs clinging to my brain I stopped that bell from ringing about the times it takes a heartbeat Then I settled back and closed my eyes again Reached out for my baby for some early morning lovin' Terrible truth came staggerin' through my head Lord there was nothin' that goes on to lay around me That woman she wasn't beside the k**er in the bed (It's the mornin' after baby let me down It's the daybreak and the heartbreak that I found) Only silence to torment me no soft hands to touch me gently It's the mornin' after baby let me down There was nothing to hold on to but the sheets that fell around me My God I was tremblin' like a leaf How could that woman leave me she was more than just a lover Every bit a lady warm and sweet I can taste the salty teardrops it's gettin' hard to swallow But a gla** of bourbon takes that lump away (yes it does) Ain't got no appetite for eatin' I got sick I got an empty feelin' What a good for nothing way to start the day (It's the mornin' after baby... Yeah it's the mornin' after baby...
