Текст песни Bettye LaVette - When I Woke Up this Morning (Music from The American Epic Sessions 2017)

Folks, my sweet Daddy done left me
And that's the reason why I'm gonna sing you this song

When I woke up this mornin', he was gone
He made me mad, I felt so sad
And he wouldn't even tell me the reason why

Oh, how he loved to dance, that old grizzly bear
I guess he's gone to Frisco, tryin' to dance it out there
'Cause when I woke up this mornin', he was gone

When I woke up this mornin', he was gone
He made me so mad, Lord, I felt so sad
And he wouldn't even tell me the reason why

Oh, how he loved to dance, that old grizzly bear
I bet he's gone to Frisco, tryin' to dance it out there
'Cause when I woke up this mornin', he was gone

Lord, he's gone, gone, gone
He's gone, gone, gone

It's always a sign, everybody knows it's true
The more you do for people, the less they gonna think of you
Like he left town and he throwed me down
And he's gone, gone, gone
When I woke up this mornin', he was gone
