| Lyrics: | Blue sky upon the horizon,
Private eye is on my trail,
And if I dont be there by
morning
You know that I must have spent the night in jail.
Ive been running from
memphis to l. a.
Had an appointment set sometime for today,
And if I dont be there by
morning
You know that I must have gone the other way.
Finding my way back to you
girl,
Lonely and blue and mistreated too.
Sometimes I think of you girl,
Is it true that
you think of me too?
I got a woman living in l. a.
I got a woman waiting for my
pay,
And if I dont be there by morning,
Pack my clothes, get down on your knees and
pray.
Chorus
I left my woman with a twenty dollar bill.
I left her waiting, I
hope shes waiting for me still.
If I dont be there by morning
You know that i, I never will. |
