The Band - Get up jake - 2000 digital remaster lyrics

Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin' The rain is pourin', we got work to do Get up Jake, there's no need a lyin' You tell me that you're dyin' but I know it's not true Now, me and Jake, we work down on the river On the ferry Baltimore And when Jake don't rise up in the mornin' People lined up all along the shore Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin' The rain is pourin', we got work to do Get up Jake, there's no need a lyin' You tell me that you're dyin' but I know it's not true Crap game will take you to the cleaners Rye whiskey to the grave River Woman, don't you come no closer 'Cause me and Jake got no time to save, oh, oh Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin' The rain is pourin', we got work to do Get up Jake, there's no need a lyin' You tell me that you're dyin' but I know it's not true Dirty Dan, he came up from Savannah Carried a mean streak in his eye Now, him and Jake both wanted Annabella I guess one man here has got to die Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin' The rain is pourin', we got work to do Get up Jake and no need a yin' Annabelle's cryin' and it's all for you
