Texas Alexander One Morning Blues
One morning, one morning, when God began to break his day
(2)
I was settin' here wonderin', "Where is my babe today?"
She went away laughin', wringin' her hands and cryin' (2)
Says, "I believe my man, he's on the [Johnny run]."
One morning, one morning, when God began to break day
One morning, one morning, when God began to break his day
Says, I wonder, I wonder who's been layin' in my old
woman's place?
I said the graveyard, graveyard, is a low-down dirty old
place (2)
They'll put you in it, pat dirt all in your face
What in the world's gettin' the matter, I can't sleep at
night? (2)
I had the blues so bad 'til I losed my appotite (sic)
