Bill Anderson - Mornin' After Ba lyrics

The alarm clock woke my sleeping but I lay there for a minute

With a million cobwebs clinging to my brain

I stopped the bell from ringing in the times it takes a heartbeat

Then I settled back and closed my eyes again

I reached out for my baby for some early morning loving

Then the terrible truth came staggering through my head

There was nothing but the fragrance of her perfume on the pillow

Baby wasn't there beside me in the bed

It's the mornin' after baby let me down

It's the daybreak and the heartbreak that I found

Only silence to torment me no soft hands to touch me gently

It's the mornin' after baby let me down

There was nothing to hold on to except the sheets that fell around me

And I started into tremblin' like a leaf

How could that woman leave me she was more than just a lover

She was every bit a lady warm and sweet

I can taste the salty teardrops God it's gettin' hard to swallow

I hope a glass of bourbon can take the pain away

I got no appetite for eatin' just a sick and empty feelin'

What a good for nothing way to start the day

It's the mornin' after baby...
