Rooster Call

Cornbread in the mornin'
 Whiskey when I'm dry
 Up before the sunrise
 To make that county line
 Rooster call this morning
 That rooster's gonna die
 Sun beats down upon my head
 In a shady grove I lie
 Every day is another way
 To please that gal o' mine
 If no pleasure I can give her
 I'll surely up and die
 No shoes upon my horses
 There's no shoes upon my feet
 And I try to be friendly
 To the people that I meet
 Some folks get all the money
 Some folks get all the class
 I got my sweet darlin'
 Which is more than I can ask
 Oh, every day is another way
 To please that gal o' mine
 If no pleasure I can give her
 I'll surely up and die
 Oh, cornbread in the mornin'
 Now it's coffee when I'm dry
 And I'm sober every Sunday
 Just to please that gal o' mine
 Rooster call this morning
 That rooster's gonna die
 Sun beats down upon my head
 In a shady grove I lie
 Every day is another way
 To please that gal o' mine
 If no pleasure I can give her
 I'll surely up and die
