Early In the Mornin' - Poncho Sanchez

In the early mornin' rain With a dollar in my hand An achin' in my heart And my pockets full of sand I'm a long way from home And I missed my loved one so In the early mornin' rain With nowhere to go Out on runway number nine Big 707 set to go I'm stuck here on the ground Where the cold winds blow The liquor tasted good And the women all were fast There she goes my friend She's a rollin' down at last Here the mighty engine's roar See the silver bird on high She's away in westward bound Far above the clouds she'll fly Where the mornin' rain don't fall And the sun always shines She'll be flyin' over my home In about three hours time This old airports got me down It's no earthly good to me 'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground Cold and drunk as I might be You can't hop a jet plane Like you can a freight train So I best be on my way In the early mornin' rain

Early mornin' Alright, I was a little late last night Got a little messy Early mornin' Can't be like that anymore, no I was shaking my ass in the streets 'til mornin' Just walked in and it's early mornin' (uh) Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and It don't stop 'til the early morning Passed out on the couch, I'm yawning Just walked in and it's early mornin' (passed out again) Bump, bump 'til the break of dawn and It don't stop 'til the early mornin' Met a dark dude, kinda dark hair When he walked up, Tony grabbed him But I liked him, told him "Come here" Kinda cool, baby, we can make plans Where you live?

In the early morning rain With a dollar in my hand And an aching in my heart And my pockets full of sand I'm a long way from home And I missed my loved one so In the early morning rain With no place to go Out on runway number nine Big 707 set to go But I'm out here on the grass Where the pavement never grows Well, the liquor tasted good And the women all were fast There she goes my friend She's rolling down at last Hear the mighty engine roar See the silver wing on high She's away and westward bound Far above the clouds she'll fly Where the morning rain don't fall And the sun always shines She'll be flying over my home In about three hours time This old airport's got me down It's no earthly good to me 'Cause I'm stuck here on the ground Cold and drunk as I might be You can't jump a jet plane Like you can a freight train So I'd best be on my way In the early morning rain So I'd best be on my way In the early morning rain

Stop the clocks, it's amazing You should see the way the light dances off your hair A million colours of hazel, golden, and red Saturday morning is fading The sun's reflected by the coffee in your hand My eyes are caught in your gaze all over again We were love-drunk, waiting on a miracle Tryna find ourselves in the winter snow So alone in love like the world had disappeared Oh, I won't be silent and I won't let go I will hold on tighter 'til the afterglow And we'll burn so bright 'til the darkness softly clears Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow The weather outside's changing The leaves are buried under six-inches of white The radio is playing Iron & Wine, ooh yeah This is a new dimension This is a level where we're losing track of time I'm holding nothing against it, except you and I We were love-drunk, waiting on a miracle Tryna find ourselves in the winter snow So alone in love like the world had disappeared Oh, no I won't be silent and I won't let go I will hold on tighter 'til the afterglow And we'll burn so bright 'til the darkness softly clears Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow Oh, I will hold on to the afterglow
