Lyrics
I'll take you down
Deep down to the frontline
(Deep down)
You woke up this morning
Got yourself a gun
Your mama always said you'd be the chosen one
She said, you're one in a million
You got to burn to shine
But you were born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes
When you woke up this morning
All that love had gone
Your papa never told you
About right and wrong
But you're, but you're looking good, baby
I believe that you're feeling fine, shame about it
Born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes
So sing it now
Woke up this morning
(You got a blue moon)
Got a blue moon in your eyes
(So sad)
(Goddamn, a goddamn shame about it)
Woke up this morning
(You got a blue moon)
Got a blue moon in your eyes
You woke up this morning
The world turned upside down
Lord above, thing's ain't been the same
Since the Blues walked into town
But you're, but you're one in a million
'Cause you've got that shotgun shine, shame about it
Born under a bad sign
With a blue moon in your eyes, yeah
Woke up this morning
(You got a blue moon)
Got a blue moon in your eyes
(So sad)
(Goddamn, a goddamn shame about it)
Woke up this morning
(You got a blue moon)
Got a blue moon in your eyes
Yeah, I know you
You just can't help yourself, yeah
You just can't help yourself
You just can't help yourself
When you woke up this morning everything was gone
By half past ten your head was going ding-dong
Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes
Like a voice tryna tell you there's something you should know
Last night you were flying, but today you're so low
Ain't it times like these makes you wonder if you'll ever know
The meaning of things as they appear to the others
Wives, husbands, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers
Don't you wish you didn't function?
Don't you wish you didn't think beyond the next paycheck
And the next little drink?
Well, you do, so make up your mind to go on
'Cause when you woke up this morning
Everything you had was gone
Woke up this morning
(Woke up this morning)
Woke up this morning
(Woke up this morning)
Woke up this morning
You wanna be my
You wanna be the chosen one
Yeah, you know it
You just can't help yourself, yeah
Woke up this morning
(When you woke up this morning)
Woke up this morning
(Woke up this morning)
Woke up this morning
You got yourself a gun
Got yourself a gun
Got yourself a gun
