A. Staehely Pickin in the mornin with my friend Matthew Drinkin cowboy coffee and thinkin of somethin to do The cats on the table, acryin to be fed But I cant put this guitar down while theres a tune in my head Stumped on the second verse, when up the driveway it came Old friends of Matthews, John and Marsh were their names A slap on the ass and a hard hand shake, Hey John, how you been ? Lost my daddy and my job last week, said John with a grin Hey Mat, lets pay a call on Durwood Curly Hop in the car, well head on down, hope were not too early Talkin bout things were gonna do when our ship comes in Its been a mellow morning, just the way every day should begin Its been a mellow morning
