Don Williams - Come Early Morning

Come Early Morning

Don Williams performs "Come Early Morning",Live on That Nashville Music

They came to call Don Williams “the Gentle Giant” in the decades he was a dominating country hit maker because of his unique blend of commanding presence and that laid-back, easy style that has appealed to adult men and women alike—cutting across national and genre boundaries.  If those personal and musical qualities stood out strongly across the 1970s, ‘80s and ‘90s, they are all the more distinctive in 2012, when so many country and pop records seem to work as check off lists of somebody’s idea of how to be a man, or hard-sell attempts to indicate affection for a woman. Don Williams has never sounded like he felt the need to sell somebody something, or to prove anything.

Don Williams Come Early Morning lyrics

I been a walkin', walkin' in the moonlight 

Trippin' in the starlight, Lord, and I'm feelin' down 

Walkin' in the shadows, sneakin' down a side road 

Come early mornin' I'll be there on the edge of town 

I was a thinkin', thinkin' bout a good thing 

Thinkin' bout a sweet gleam, uum, in my honey's eyes 

And I was a-sinkin', feelin' kinda lonesome 

Come early morning I'll be home at my honey's side 

I have drifted up across the mountain 

And I have stumbled down the other side 

And I've been tempted, tried and troubled 

Come early morning I'll be home and satisfied 

[Instrumental]

She give me little lovin' 

Give me little sunshine 

Make me have a good time, Lord 

When I'm feelin' blue 

I couldn't refuse her 

Well I couldn't misuse her 

Come early mornin' I'll be home 

With my honeydew 

I have drifted up across the mountains 

I have stumbled down the other side 

I've been tempted, tried and troubled 

Come early mornin' I'll be home 

And satisfied...
