Early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man or woman miss out on the night life
Early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man or woman miss out on the night life
One drink call it a early night
Soon you're curled up beneath the reading light
Or you bathe in the TV's blue tint
On your pillow an after-dinner mint
Early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man or woman miss out on the night life
Early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man or woman miss out on the night life
Early to bed so you can wait
For three buses a trolley and a train
I think it's worth it for you to stay awake
Maybe tomorrow you'll be a little late
But early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man or woman miss out on the night life
Early to bed and early to rise
Makes a man or woman miss out on the night life
You'll miss out on the night life
You'll miss out on the night life
Tore open a package it was an empty box
No meaning to me just an empty box
Sender was a woman
Sender was a woman
She said she's sending me everything that I I I never gave her before
She said fill it up and send it back
Fill it up and send it back
So I send her back an empty box
A big mistake sent back an empty box
Half in the shadows half in the husky moonlight
And half insane just a sound
I crossed into a valley a valley so dark
That when I look back I can't see where I begin
I can't see my hands
I don't even know if my eyes are open
In the morning I was by the sea
And I swam out as far as I could swim
Until I was too tired to swim anymore
And then I floated and tried to get my strength back
And then an empty box came floating by
An empty box and I crawled inside
Half in the shadows half in the husky moonlight
And half insane just a sound in the night
Half in the shadows half in the husky moonlight
And half insane just a sound
I got buttons bursting in the air
I got apple orchards everywhere
I got grapes swinging from the vine
Swinging in a line lined up in the sunshine
I'm on time fresh fast a sweetheart
Who'll watch your back I'm all swing
Swinging from the shoestrings
Right or wrong to me it's the same thing
You especially you especially you especially
You have my loyalty
You in wartime love peace I need to walk you down the street
I'm right here I'll watch your back
In case the wind blows off your hat
You your on time your eyes are like a diamond mine
Deep and bright inside
I got buttons bursting in the air
I got apple orchards everywhere
I got grapes swinging from the vine
Swinging in a line lined up in the sunshine
Mmm mmm mmm
I got buttons burst in the air
Ideas run fingers through my hair
My shoes they're ready to move
My shoes they're ready to move
Swing it low
Swing it low
Swing it low low low
Swing it low
Swing it low
Swing it low low low
Mmm
Mmm
Swing it low
