Hoyt Axton

Chorus:
(And) when the morning comes and you gotta get up
How you going to find your shoes
In an empty bed with an achin' head
You know its got to give you the blues.
I don't know what's going on here
I know things are not all right
If you want me to I'll go dear
If you want I'll stay all night.
I came here with my broken heart
Wrapped away with care
And all you do is sit and drink
And stare at your T V.
Chorus:
(And) when the morning comes and you gotta get up
How you going to find your shoes
In an empty bed with an achin' head
You know its got to give you the blues.
You ask me why I came here
But you're the one who phoned
I wasn't very happy
But I did alright alone.
I thought you learned to love me
I guess you never will
The key's lost to the kingdom
And I don't have time to kill.
Chorus:
(And) when the morning comes and you gotta get up
How you going to find your shoes
In an empty bed with an achin' head
You know its got to give you the blues.

Chorus:
(And) when the morning comes and you gotta get up
How you going to find your shoes
In an empty bed with an achin' head
You know its got to give you the blues.
So it's goodbye Carolina
So long Tennessee
California's callin'
And Chicago's good to me.
My feet are in the stirrups
My pony wants to run
Think I'll hit the highway
I guess your not the one.
Chorus:
(And) when the morning comes and you gotta get up
How you going to find your shoes
In an empty bed with an achin' head
You know its got to give you the blues.
Chorus:
(And) when the morning comes and you gotta get up
How you going to find your shoes
In an empty bed with an achin' head
You know its got to give you the blues.
