| Meet me in the morning
|
| 56th and Wabasha
|
| Um, meet me in the morning, yes
|
| 56th and Wabasha, eh
|
| Honey, we could be in Kansas
|
| By time the snow begins to thaw
|
| They say the darkest hour, eh
|
| Comes a-right before the dawn
|
| They say that the darkest hour, baby
|
| Come right, eh, right before the dawn
|
| Ah, you wouldn’t know it by me, sugar
|
| Every day’s been darkness since you been gone
|
| Since you been gone
|
| I hear the rooster when it’s crowing
|
| Must be something on his mind
|
| I hear the rooster when it’s crowing
|
| Must be something on his mind
|
| Um, something on his mind
|
| And I feel just like that rooster
|
| Every time you treat me so
|
| You treat me so unkind
|
| Treat me, baby
|
| Oh, I struggled through barbed wire
|
| And I felt the hail when it fell all from up above
|
| I struggled through barbed wire
|
| And felt the hail, ooh, when it fell from up above
|
| I even outran a hound dog, baby
|
| Don’t you think that I’ve earned your love?
|
| Earned your love
|
| Look at the sun, oh, yeah
|
| Ooh, when it’s sinking like a ship
|
| Like a ship, like a ship, like a ship
|
| Look at the sun, at the sun, at the sun, baby
|
| When it’s sinking, sinking like a ship
|
| Ain’t it just like my heart, babe
|
| Every time you kiss my lips
|
| Every time that you kiss my lips |
