Roger Miller - I Get Up Early In the Morning lyrics
[Roger Miller - I Get Up Early In the Morning lyrics]
When Christopher Columbus returned to Spain
The wise men asked him would you please
Explain how'd you know the world was round
He said I used my brain
And I get up early in the morning
Well get up and get up when the sun comes up
Don't lay there dozin' like a lazy pup
Health and wealth will overflow your cup
If you get up early in the morning
Andrew Jackson fought the British
Down in New Orleans and he sent them runnin'
Through the turnip greens
When they wondered how he did it
He said were just mean
And I get up early in the morning
They asked Casanova uh man what you got
That makes all the women think
That you're so hot
He said well my little secret
Boys believe it or not
Is I get up early in the morning
The wise men asked him would you please
Explain how'd you know the world was round
He said I used my brain
And I get up early in the morning
Well get up and get up when the sun comes up
Don't lay there dozin' like a lazy pup
Health and wealth will overflow your cup
If you get up early in the morning
Andrew Jackson fought the British
Down in New Orleans and he sent them runnin'
Through the turnip greens
When they wondered how he did it
He said were just mean
And I get up early in the morning
They asked Casanova uh man what you got
That makes all the women think
That you're so hot
He said well my little secret
Boys believe it or not
Is I get up early in the morning
