Well I been walkin' a walkin' in the moonlight
Trippin' in the stralight Lord and I'm feelin' down
Walkin' in the shadows sneakin' down the sideroad
Come early morning I'll be there on the edge of town

I was a thinking thinking bout a good thing
Thinking bout a sweet gleam oh in my honey's eyes
And I was a sinking feelin' kinda lonesome
Come early morning I'll be home by my honey's side

And I have drifted up across the mountains
I have stumbled down the other side
And I've been tempted tried and troubled Lord
Come early morning I'll be home and satisfied

[ banjo ]
She give me little lovin' give me little sunshine
Make me have a good time oh when I'm feeling blue
I couldn't refuse her well I couldn't misuse her
Come early morning I'll be home with my honey dew

And I have drifted up across the mountains...
And I have drifted up across the mountains...
Come early morning I'll be home by my honey's side
Yes I will
