THERE'S A QUIET TIME
IN THE EARLY DAWN
BEFORE THE
MORNIN' PAPER
BEFORE THE
COFFEE'S ON
WHEN THERE AIN'T
MUCH MOVIN'
IN THE WORLD OUTSIDE
OH I LOVE
TO TAKE A MORNIN' RIDE
MY BABY KNOWS
IT'S THE TIME WE SHARE
SHE WAKES ME GENTLY
AND BRUSHES
BACK HER HAIR
THEN SHE MOVES
INTO MY ARMS
KINDA SWEET
AND SLOW
AND I CAN'T WAIT
TO GET UP AND GO
GONNA TAKE MY BABY
ON A MORNIN' RIDE
WHEN THE SUN COMES
SLIPPIN' 'ROUND
THE MOUNTAINSIDE
'BOUT AN HOUR
MAYBE TWO
AIN'T NOTHIN' ME
AND HER
WOULD RATHER DO
THAN SEE THE
GREEN GRASS GLISTENIN'
IN THE MORNIN' DEW
WHILE THE
WORLD IS STILL
BRAND SPANKIN' NEW
OH I KNOW
HOW BEAUTIFUL
THE DAY WILL BE
WHEN SHE TAKES
A MORNIN' RIDE WITH ME
AND WHEN WE GET BACK
IT WILL FEEL SO RIGHT
JUST LAY BACK
AND LINGER
IN THE MORNIN' LIGHT
THEN SHE'LL SMILE AT ME
THINKIN'
WHERE WE'VE BEEN
WANTIN' ME
TO TAKE HER AGAIN
I'M GONNA TAKE MY BABY
ON A MORNIN' RIDE
WHEN THE SUN COMES
SLIPPIN' 'ROUND
THE MOUNTAINSIDE
FOR AN HOUR
OR MAYBE TWO
AIN'T NOTHIN'
ME AND HER
WOULD RATHER DO
THAN SEE THE
GREEN GRASS GLISTENIN'
IN THE MORNIN' DEW
WHILE THE
WORLD IS STILL
BRAND SPANKIN' NEW
OH I KNOW
HOW BEAUTIFUL
THE DAY WILL BE
WHEN SHE TAKES
A MORNIN' RIDE WITH ME
OH I'M GONNA
TAKE MY BABY
ON A MORNIN' RIDE
WHEN THE SUN COMES
SLIPPIN' ROUND
THE MOUNTAINSIDE
'BOUT AN HOUR
MAYBE TWO
AIN'T NOTHIN'
ME AND HER
WOULD RATHER DO
THAN SEE THE
GREEN GRASS GLISTENIN'
IN THE MORNIN' DEW
WHILE THE
WORLD IS STILL
BRAND SPANKIN' NEW
OH I KNOW
HOW BEAUTIFUL
THE DAY WILL BE
WHEN SHE TAKES
A MORNIN' RIDE WITH ME
