It's no good, me leaning on you
I feel I should be on my way
'Cause the sun is on my side and I feel like a ride
So I'll kiss you goodbye, Elly May

I'll always feel something for you
And I'll often remember today
But when I feel the light shinin' down and shinin' bright
You know I just can't sit tight, Elly-May

Early in the morning
Early in the morning
Early in the morning

I feel something I can't explain
So I'll make tracks and be on my way
But when I feel the light shinin' down and shinin' bright
You know I just can't sit tight, Elly-May

Early, early, early in the morning
I'll be, I'll be, I'll be, I'll be on my way
Early in the morning
Early in the morning
