Don't do no good for me to keep a-wishin'
It's no use 'cause you I keep a-missin'
I'm a-gonna get up right now
I'm a-gonna come get you

Don't do no good for me to keep a-lyin'
To myself and I'm a-gonna stop tryin'
I'm a-gonna get up right now
I'm a-gonna come get you

I'm a-gonna come get you, I'm a-leavin' in the mornin'
You better be ready I'm a-givin' you warnin'
Baby, I don't want to be left down
'Cause this time I'm not a-playin' around

I've been sittin' home thinkin' and decidin'
I've made up my mind and there ain't no use a-hidin'
I'm a-gonna get up right now
I'm a-gonna come get you

--- Instrumental ---

You left home and you went and told your pappy
That I could'nt never ever make you happy
I'm a-gonna get up right now
And I'm a-gonna show get you

It does no good for me to be a-cryin'
It's no use for me to be denyin'
I'm a-gonna get up right now
And I'm a-gonna come get you

I'm a-gonna come get you, I'm a-leavin' in the morning
You better be ready I'm a-givin' you warnin'
Baby, I don't want to be left down
'Cause this time I'm not playing around

I've been sittin' home thinkin' and decidin'
I've made up my mind and there ain't no use a-hidin'
I'm a-gonna get up right now
I'm a-gonna come get you
