Coffees on the rooster crows They tell me that's the way it goes I ain't one who really knows Early in the mornin They say its pretty, its serene The dew is out, the air is clean Its something I have rarely seen Early in the morning Oh but I know dark, and I know night Smoke filled bars and neon lights Anything that's not as bright Early in the morn Early to bed early to rise Make you healthy, wealthy, wise I can't open up my eyes Early in the morning Those folks that get up with the sun They say it's the time to get things done Doesn't sound like too much fun Early in the morning Oh but I know dark, and I know night Smoke filled bars and neon lights Anything that's not as bright Early in the morn
