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 your down

I won't let your 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 now

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 cryin' you know
You better go now

Well, I'd tell you what she wants
But I just don't know how.
Fifteen jugglers

Fifteen jugglers
Five believers
Five believers

All dressed like men
Tell yo' mama not to worry because
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 guess, I could make it without you
If I just didn't feel so all alone.
