Lyrics of Woke Up This Morning - The Sopranos Mix by Alabama 3
intro
I'm gonna take you down
Deep down into the front line
(Deep down)
verse
You woke up this morning, got yourself a gun
Your mama always said you'd be the chosen one
She said, "You're one in a million, you got to burn and shine"
But you were born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes
verse
When you woke up this morning, all that love had gone
Your papa never told you about right and wrong
Ah, but you're, 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
So sing it now
chorus
(Woke up this morning)
Got a blue moon (got a blue moon in your eyes)
So sad, goddamn, goddamn shame about it
(Woke up this morning)
Got a blue moon
Got a blue moon in your eyes, yeah (woke up this morning)
verse
Oh, so you woke up this morning with the world turned upside down
Lord above, things ain't been the same since the blues walked into town
Oh, but you're, but you're one in a million
'Cause you got that shotgun shine, shame about it
Born under a bad sign, with a blue moon in your eyes, yeah (yeah)
chorus
(Woke up this morning)
Got a blue moon
(I got, got a blue moon in your eyes)
So sad, goddamn, a goddamn shame about it
(Woke up this morning)
I got a blue moon
(I got) got a blue moon in your eyes, yeah
Yeah, I know, you just can't help yourself, yeah
hook
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh)
You just can't help yourself
You just can't help yourself (yeah, yeah)
But I know a man who can, Mr. D. Wayne Love
verse
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 tryna 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 makes you wonder if you'll ever know
The meaning of things as they appear to the others
Wives, husbands, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers
verse
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
'Cause when you woke up this morning, everything you had was gone
chorus
Woke up this morning (I know, woke up this morning)
Woke up this morning (woke up this morning)
Woke up this morning
You wanna be (woke up), you wanna be the chosen one
Yeah, you know it
You just can't help yourself, yeah
outro
Woke up this morning (I know, woke up this morning)
Woke up this morning (woke up this morning)
Woke up this morning (woke up)
Got yourself a gun (woke up this morning)
Got yourself a gun (woke up)
Got yourself a gun
