Tom Paxton - Gettin' Up Early lyrics

Gettin' up early to see the mist still kissing the land I watch the sunrise the way the great creator planned I walk the long gra** get my legs all covered with dew Gettin' up eary remembering you Gettin' up early remembering you Out in the meadow I see the cows beginning to graze I watch a crow fly I see the sun start burning the haze These summer mornings not a whole lot left to do but Gettin' up early remembering you Gettin' up early remembering you How many times did we greet the morning sun And send the stars off to bedtime one by one We's sing "Mr Tambouring Man" then We'd fall into each other's arms again Getting up early these days I just can't stay in bed I make the coffee an old song runs 'round my head Out on the back porch I've got a long day to get through Gettin' up early remembering you Gettin' up early remembering you How many times did we greet the morning sun And send the stars off to bedtime one by one We's sing "Mr Tambouring Man" then We'd fall into each other's arms again Getting up early these days I just can't stay in bed I make the coffee an old song runs 'round my head Out on the back porch I've got a long day to get through Gettin' up early remembering you Gettin' up early remembering you
