Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, have you ever woke up in the mornin' sometimes
Just about the break of day
Well, have you ever woke up in the mornin' sometimes
Just about the break of day
[Verse 2]
Reach over and fill the pillow, baby
Where your sweet man used to lay
[Verse 3]
Well, baby
It's so lonesome by myself
Well, it's so lonesome, babe
Child, sleepin' all by myself
[Verse 4]
Well, I don't want nobody but my baby
Child, and my baby's lovin' somebody else
[Verse 5]
Oh, baby, won't you please hear my plea?
Hallelujah, I say, oh, oh, babe
Won't you please hear my plea?
Well, wherever you may be, darlin'
Bring your fine self home to me
