I Get Up Early In The Morning Chords & Lyrics - Roger Miller

[VERSE 1]
[G]When Christopher Columbus [D]returned to Spain
[D]The wise men asked him would you [G]please explain
[G]How'd you know the world was round he said I [C]used my brain
[D]And I get up early in the [G]morning

[CHORUS]
[G]Well get up and get up when the [D]sun comes up
[D]Don't lay there dozin' like a [G]lazy pup
[G]Health and wealth will over[C]flow your cup
[D]If you get up early in the [G]morning

[VERSE 2]
[G]Andrew Jackson fought the British down in [D]New Orleans
[D]And he sent them runnin' through the [G]turnip greens
[G]When they wondered how he did it he said[C] were just mean
[D]And I get up early in the [G]morning

[CHORUS 2]
[G]Well get up and get up when the [D]sun comes up
[D]And don't lay there dozin' like a [G]lazy pup
[G]Health and wealth will over[C]flow your cup
[D]If you get up early in the [G]morning

[G]They asked Casanova man [D]uh what you got
[D]That makes all the women think that [G]you're so hot
[G]He said well my little secret boys[C] believe it or not
Is [D]I get up early in the [G]morning

[CHORUS 3]
[G]Well get up and get up when the [D]sun comes up
[D]Don't lay there dozin' like a [G]lazy pup
[G]Health and wealth will over[C]flow your cup
[D]If you get up early in the [G]morning
