In the morning
When I rise
Sweet teardrops
Drop from my eyes
About the things that go down
When a guy is not around
About the girl I left behind
Couldn't find no peace of mind
Back and forth is a waste of time
And I'm broke and I ain't got a dime

About the time, yea
I get where I'm goin'
My whole life, my whole life
Is gonna be showin' yea yea
All the things that I done
All because, all because
All because I'm a foolish one
About the girl I left behind
Couldn't find no peace of mind
Back and forth is a waste of time
And I'm broke and I ain't got a dime
