[Chorus]
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
[Verse 1]
You know I love getting up in the morning
When the sun first strikes the trees
All the morning birds that sing above
Still bring back memories
Of a girl who stood beside me
When the rights I did were wrong (wrong)
But she went back down the river
Just when I thought I could be strong
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing
[Bridge]
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
[Verse 2]
She never told me why she left me
But the letter said goodbye (bye)
Now my mornings are for wondering
And my nights to reason why
Why a stranger comes to steal the love
Of a girl I had to hold
But she went back down the river
Just when I thought I could be strong
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing
[Chorus - Var.1]
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I sing, I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I sing, I O, I I I I I I O, I O
[Outro]
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
