I.o. I.o.

I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O

You know I love getting up in the morning
When the sun first strikes the trees
All the morning birds that sing above
Still bring back memories

Of a girl who stood beside me
When the rights I did were wrong
But she went back down the river
Just when I thought I could be strong
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing

I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O

She never told me why she left me
But the letter said goodbye
Now my mornings are for wondering
And my nights to reason why

Why a stranger comes to steal the love
Of a girl I had to hold
But she went back down the river
Just when I thought I could be strong
When I thought I could be strong, so I sing

I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I sing, I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I sing, I O, I I I I I I O, I O

I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
I O, I I I I I I O, I O
