Mellow Morning

Lyrics

A. Staehely Pickin' in the mornin' with my friend Matthew Drinkin' cowboy coffee and thinkin' of somethin' to do The cat's on the table, a-cryin' to be fed But I can't put this guitar down while there's a tune in my head Stumped on the second verse, when up the driveway it came Old friends of Matthew's, John and Marsh were their names A slap on the ass and a hard hand shake, 'Hey John, how you been ?' 'Lost my daddy and my job last week', said John with a grin 'Hey Mat, let's pay a call on Durwood Curly' 'Hop in the car, we'll head on down, hope we're not too early' Talkin' 'bout things we're gonna do when our ship comes in It's been a mellow morning, just the way every day should begin It's been a mellow morning
