Woke Up This Morning

I woke up this morning

Got myself a gun

Mama always said I´d be the

Chosen One

One in a million

I´ve got live burn to shine

I was born under a bad sign

With a blue moon in my eyes

And I

Woke up this morning

And all that love had gone

Papa never told me

About right and wrong

But I´m looking good, baby

I believe that I´m feeling fine

I was born under a bad sign

With a blue moon in my eyes

So help me now

Woke up this morning

I got a blue moon in my eyes

Woke up this morning

I got a blue moon in my eyes

I woke up this morning

The world turned upside down

Lord above, things ain't been the same

Since the Blues walked in our town

But I´m one in a million

Cause I´ve got that shotgun shine; shame about it

Born under a bad sign

With a blue moon in my eyes

Woke up this morning

I got a blue moon in my eyes (God-damn shame about it)

Woke up this morning

I got a blue moon in my eyes

I can´ t help myself

I woke up this morning, everything was gone

By half past ten, my head was going ding-dong

Ringing like a bell from your head down to my toes

Like a voice telling you there was something I should know

Last night I was flying, but today I´m so low

Ain't it times like these make me wonder if you'll ever know

The meaning of things as they appear to the others

Wives, husbands, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers

I wish you didn't function

And I wish you didn't think

Beyond the next paycheck and the next little drink

Well you do, so make up my mind to go on, 'cause

When I woke up this morning, everything I had was gone

Woke up this morning

I wanna be the Chosen One

Woke up this morning

Got myself a gun
