early in the morning i hear my neighbors stereo
the telephone should start ringing as usual
i listen to my answering machine screening all my calls
solicitor wrong numbers and some i just dont know
i mailed your letter the other day but its got so far to go
someone backed into my car it has a dent in the door
now i cant stand eating breakfast early in the morning
now theres someone knocking at my door
its a friend whos getting married
i hope this one lasts longer than the one before
i got the blues this morning just trying to make it through
to live and to love you sometimes suffer
my neighbor called it payin dues
another day just a fading memory flashes across my eyes
here and there happy said oh lord got to make this rhyme
nothing much to tell you but ive got so much on my mind
guess ill put this pencil down
sincerely your friend
i dont know what to say but how are you today
