Her name is Miss Kate
She told me to come to the house this mo’nin’
I got there about half past eight
She ask ‘I told you come early in the mo’nin’
Baby ’bout the break of day’
Now ya oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay
I said ‘Look a here woman
You fool with too many men
I can’t never come to see you in the evenin
I have to come ‘n see you when I can’
You tell me ‘Come early in the mo’nin’
Baby ’bout the break of day’
Now you oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay
Well now I said ‘Look you woman
I ain’t gonna fool ’round wit’ you no mo’
I know you don’t love me
You out ’round with Mr So ‘n So
You tell me ‘Come early in the mo’nin’
Baby ’bout the break of day’
Now ya oughta see me grab the pillow
Where my baby used to lay
