ELLY-MAY (Robert J. Purvis)

It's no good, me, leaning on you

I feel I should be on my way

'Cos the sun is on my side and I feel like a ride

So, I'll kiss you goodbye, Elly-May


I'll always feel something for you

And I'll often remember today

But when I feel the light shining down and shining bright

You know, I just can't sit tight, Elly-May


Early in the morning

Early in the morning

[synthesizer solo]

Early in the morning


I feel something I can't explain

So, I'll make tracks and be on my way

But when I feel the light shining down and shining bright

You know, I just can't sit tight, Elly-May


Early, early, early in the morning

I'll be, I'll be, I'll be, I'll be on my way

Early in the morning

Early in the morning
