Early in the mornin', early in the mornin'

I'm callin' you to, I'm callin' you to please come home

Yes, I guess I could make it without you

If I just didn't feel so all alone

Don't let me down, don't let me down

I won't let you down, I won't let you down, no I won't

You know I can if you can, honey

But, honey, please don't

I got my black dog barkin', black dog barkin'

Yes it is now, yes it is, outside my yard

Yes, I could tell you what he means

If I just didn't have to try so hard

Your mama's workin', your mama's moanin'

She's cryin' you know, she's tryin' you know, you better go now

Well, I'd tell you what she wants

If I, but I just don't know how

Fifteen jugglers, fifteen jugglers

Five believers, five believers all dressed like men

Tell your mama not to worry because

Yes, they're just my friends

Early in the mornin', early in the mornin'

I'm callin' you to, I'm callin' you to please come home

Yes, I could make it without you

If I just didn't feel so all alone
