Morning light shine in my window
Morning light tell me to leave you
Morning light and I wonder just
How can I wander alone in this world without you

All day I work with pick in hand
Until the sun go down,
All day I think of you, my girl,
And my poor heart spins 'round

Sun go up, the moon come down
The whole world spinnin' 'round
Before that stops and heaven drops
My love still keeps us bound

Rooster crows at break of day
And when the sun go down
Were I that rooster lovin' you
I'd make a sweeter sound
