This Mornin', This Evenin', So Soon

(album: String Along - 1960)

Tell old Bill when he leaves home this morning, tell old Bill when he leaves home this evening
Tell old Bill when he leaves home to let those downtown girls alone, this morning, this evening, so soon

Old Sal was baking bread this morning
Old Sal was baking bread this evening
Old Sal was baking bread when she got word that Bill was dead, this morning, this evening, so soon

Oh, no! It can't be so this morning
Oh, no! It can't be so this evening
Oh, no! It can't be so
My Bill left home about an hour ago, this morning, this evening, so soon

They brought Bill home in a hurry-up wagon this morning
They brought Bill home in a hurry-up wagon this evening
Brought Bill home in a hurry-up wagon
Brought Bill home with his toes a-dragging this morning, this evening, so soon
This morning, this evening, so soon

Tell old Bill when he leaves home this morning, tell old Bill when he leaves home this evening
Tell old Bill when he leaves home to let those downtown girls alone, this morning, this evening, so soon
