A
Early in the morning by the break of day
That is when my baby went away
Come back baby I wish you would
This crying and grieving
Will not do me no good
Hugging and a-kissing, late at night
You know pretty baby it feels just right
Come back baby what you are trying to do?
Turning on me and some other men too
Come back baby give me one more chance
You know I still love
You going to give you romance
Yeah, romance all night long
               G
In my arms, oh yeah

Early in the morning by the break of day
That is when my baby went away
Come back baby I wish you would
This crying and grieving
Will not do me no good
Hey pretty baby I love you so
You know pretty baby it hurts me to see you go
Oh yeah
    G
Oh yeah

Oh yeah

Oh yeah
