FAIR CHANCE TO KNOW

(JOHN DAWSON)

I WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH MY
HEART DOWN IN MY SHOES
I GUESS YOU’D UNDERSTATE IT IF YOU SAID
THAT I WOKE UP THIS MORNING
WITH A BAD CASE OF THE BLUES
AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT I’M A GONNA DO TODAY

CHORUS:
AND WHY OH WHY
WHY DID SHE HAVE TO LEAVE
SHE LEFT WITHOUT GIVING ME
A CHANCE TO SAY PLEASE
AND WHY OH WHY
WHY DID SHE HAVE TO GO
SHE LEFT WITHOUT A-GIVING ME A
FAIR CHANCE TO KNOW

I LOOKED OUT MY WINDOW DOWN UNTO
THE STREET BELOW
SCENES OF SUNLIGHT FILL THE AIR
BUT IT’LL TAKE MORE THAN THE SUNLIGHT
TO KEEP ME FROM FEELING LOW
AND I GOTTA GO FIND SOMEONE TO CARE

REPEAT CHORUS
I WOKE UP THIS MORNING WITH MY
HEART DOWN IN MY SHOES
I GUESS YOU’D UNDERSTATE IT IF YOU SAID
THAT I WOKE UP THIS MORNING
WITH A BAD CASE OF THE BLUES
AND I DON’T KNOW WHAT I’M A GONNA DO TODAY

REPEAT CHORUS
