Get Up Jake [outtake-stereo Remix] Lyrics

Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin'

The rain is pourin', we got work to do

Get up Jake, there's no need a lyin'

You tell me that you're dyin' but I know it's not true



Now, me and Jake, we work down on the river

On the ferry Baltimore

And when Jake don't rise up in the mornin'

People lined up all along the shore



Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin'

The rain is pourin', we got work to do

Get up Jake, there's no need a lyin'

You tell me that you're dyin' but I know it's not true



Crap game will take you to the cleaners

Rye whiskey to the grave

River Woman, don't you come no closer

'Cause me and Jake got no time to save, oh, oh



Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin'

The rain is pourin', we got work to do

Get up Jake, there's no need a lyin'

You tell me that you're dyin' but I know it's not true



Dirty Dan, he came up from Savannah

Carried a mean streak in his eye

Now, him and Jake both wanted Annabella

I guess one man here has got to die



Get up Jake, it's late in the mornin'

The rain is pourin', we got work to do

Get up Jake and no need a yin'

Annabelle's cryin' and it's all for you
