I'm gon' get up in the mo'nin'.
Goin' down Highway 51.
Get up in the mo'nin'.
Goin' down Highway 51.
Miss Sally Mae, my sweet woman.
An she don't pay me no mind.
Yes, she left this mo'nin.
Lord, Lord, Lord.
An she rode the B & O.
Um-um, um-mm-mm.mm-mm.
Yes, she left me.
An she rode the B & O.
(Whistles with guitar solo)
When she was leavin', Lord, Lord, Lord.
She wouldn't even, Lord, shake my hand.
Hmm-mmm.
Some day I will meet you.
When your trouble, just like mine.
Umm-mmm-mmm.
