Lyrics

[Verse 1] It was early in the mornin' I heard the roosters crowing for day It was early in the mornin' I heard the roosters crowing for day I looked out my window Saw my baby walk away [Verse 2] I cried Lord, please stop her Ain't gonna get drunk no more I cried Lord, please stop her Ain't gonna get drunk no more I hollered out my window Come back baby, please don't go [Verse 3] I know she heard me callin' She looked back and waved her hand I know she heard me callin' She looked back and waved her hand I could heard her telling her mother Ma that's one no good man [Instrumental Interlude] [Verse 4] I watched my baby leavin' Her mother had her by her hand No, I watched my baby leavin' Her mother had her by the hand I could hear her tellin' her mother 'Ma that's one no good man [Verse 5] I cried Lord, stop her I ain't gonna get drunk no more I cried Lord, stop her I ain't gonna get drunk no more I hollered out my window Come back baby, please don't go
