[00:13.000]In the early mornin' rain
[00:17.810]With a dollar in my hand
[00:23.020]With an achin' in my heart
[00:27.950]And my pockets full of sand
[00:32.730]I'm a long way from home
[00:37.830]And I missed my loved one so
[00:42.940]In the early mornin' rain
[00:47.960]with no place to go
[00:51.590]
[00:53.220]Out on runway number nine
[00:57.760]Big seven-o-seven set to go
[01:02.780]Well, I'm stuck here on the ground
[01:07.810]Where the pavement never grows
[01:13.110]Where the liquor tasted good
[01:17.980]And the women all were fast
[01:23.420]There she goes, my friend
[01:28.330]She's a rollin' down at last
[01:32.790]
[01:33.370]Here the mighty engines roar
[01:38.420]See the silver bird on high
[01:43.690]She's away in westward bound
[01:48.320]Far above the clouds she'll fly
[01:53.360]Where the mornin' rain don't fall
[01:58.420]And the sun always shines
[02:03.550]She'll be flyin' over my home
[02:08.600]In about three hours time
[02:13.050]
[02:13.620]This old airports got me down
[02:18.020]It's no earthly good to me
[02:23.500]'cause I'm stuck here on the ground
[02:28.470]Cold and drunk as I might be
[02:33.400]You can't jump a jet plane
[02:39.680]Like you can a freight train
[02:43.310]So I best be on my way
[02:48.510]In the early mornin' rain
[02:53.780]So I best be on my way
[02:58.600]In the early mornin' rain
[03:04.650]
