Woke up this morning

Woke up this mornitng

I'm gonna take you down

Deep down to the front lines

You woke up this morning

Got yourself a gun,

Mama always said you'd be

The Chosen One.

She said: You're one in a million

You've got to burn to shine,

But you were born under a bad sign,

With a blue moon in your eyes.

You woke up this morning

All that love had gone,

Your Papa never told you

About right and wrong.

But you're looking good, baby,

I believe you're feeling fine,(shame about it),

Born under a bad sign

With a blue moon in your eyes.

Chorus

You woke up this morning

Got a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning

Got a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning

The world turned upside down,

Thing's ain't been the same

Since the Blues walked into town.

But you're one in a million

You've got that shotgun shine. (shame about it)

Born under a bad sign,

With a blue moon in your eyes.

You woke up this morning

Got a blue moon in your eyes

You woke up this morning

Got a blue moon in your eyes

When you woke up this morning everything was gone.

By half past ten your head was going ding-dong.

Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes,

Like a voice trying to tell you there's something you should know.

Last night you were flying but today you're so low

Ain't it times like these that make you wonder if

You'll ever know the meaning of things as they appear to the others;

Wives, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers.

Don't you wish you didn't function, don't you wish you

Didn't think beyond the next paycheck and the next little drink?

Well you do so make up your mind to go on, �?�¢??cos

When you woke up this morning everything you had was gone.

Woke up this morning,

Woke up this morning,

Woke up this morning,

You want to be the Chosen One.

Woke up this morning,

Woke up this morning,

Woke up this morning,

You got yourself a gun.
