I reached out for my baby for some early morning loving Then the terrible truth came staggering through my head There was nothing but the fragrance of her perfume on the pillow Baby wasn't there beside me in the bed.
It's the mornin' after baby, let me down It's the daybreak and the heartbreak that I found Only silence to torment me no soft hands to touch me gently It's the mornin' after baby, let me down.
There was nothing to hold on to except the sheets that fell around me And I started into tremblin' like a leaf How could that woman leave me she was more than just a lover She was every bit a lady warm and sweet.
I can taste the salty teardrops God it's gettin' hard to swallow I hope a glass of bourbon can take the pain away I got no appetite for eatin' just a sick and empty feelin' What a good for nothing way to start the day.
