Randy Starr/Dick Wolf

I remember Grandpa telling me that I was born as the sun was comin' up early in the morn
Told me I was born early in the morn

Chorus:
When you lift your eyes and see the sun a-risin' on the far horizon early in the mornin'

It was early in the day when I set out to roam Went to seek my fortune far away from home
I set out to roam far away from home

(Chorus)

But today when I awoke I missed my darlin' so Gotta have her by my side forever more I know
Need my darlin' so Evermore I know

(Chorus)

So tomorrow I'll be leavin' at the break of day Gonna hurry to my love and there I'll always stay
At the break of day There I'll always stay

(Chorus)
