Album: Complete Studio RecordingsNo QuarterI received a message from my brother across the water,
He sat laughing as he wrote the endÚFFFF92s in sight.
So I said goodbye to all my friends,
And packed my hopes inside a matchbox,
Because I know it's time to fly.
Oh yeah come on meet me in the morning,
Meet me in the middle of the night.
Oh yeah the morning light is coming,
Don't it make you wanna feel all right.
I just jumped a train that never stops,
So now so how'll they know I never,
Finished paying for my ride.
Just now someone pushed a gun into my hand,
Tell me I'm the type of man,
To fight the fight that I'll require.
Oh yeah come on meet me in the morning,
Meet me in the middle of the night.
Oh yeah the morning light is coming,
Don't it make you wanna feel all right.
Oh mama well I think it's time I'm leaving,
Nothing here to make me stay.
Oh mama well it must be time I'm going,
They're knocking down them doors,
And trying to take me away.
Please Mr. Brakeman won't you ring your bell,
And ring it loud and clear.
Please Mr. Fireman won't you ring your bell,
Tell the people they got to fly away from here.
I once saw a picture of a lady with a baby,
Southern lady had a very very special smile.
We are in the middle of a change in destination,
When the train starts all together we will smile.
Oh yeah come on meet me in the morning,
Meet me in the middle of the night.
Everybody know the morning time is coming,
Don't it make you wanna feel all right.
