If I Don't Be There By Morning Lyrics - The Live Album Collection - Eric Clapton

by Bob Dylan and Helena Springs 

Blue sky upon the horizon, 

Private eye is on my trail, 

And if I don't be there by morning 

You know that I must have spent the night in jail. 

I've been running from Memphis to L. A. 

Had an appointment set sometime for today, 

And if I don't be there by morning 

You know that I must have gone the other way.

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Finding my way back to you girl, 

Lonely and blue and mistreated too. 

Sometimes I think of you girl, 

Is it true that you think of me too? 

I got a woman living in L. A. 

I got a woman waiting for my pay, 

And if I don't be there by morning, 

Pack my clothes, get down on your knees and pray. 

Chorus

I left my woman with a twenty dollar bill. 

I left her waiting, I hope she's waiting for me still. 

If I don't be there by morning 

You know that I, I never will.
