From the recording Johnny Hilton 1978
Lyrics
Woke up this morning feeling bad and kinda crazy
Tried to tell ‘em how I felt but no one could know
Your family tells you do one things
And your heart tells you another
I’m alone and standing in the rain
I think it’s time to go
Where the tree’s can talk to me and they tell me they know
And a girl who shows me where and she calls me her lover
Yeah she calls me her love
Big black dogs and crossing logs
They’ll tell you where your kids are
Money tree’s and honey bee’s
They’ll tell you where your hearts are
Childhood dreams and grown up schemes
All here and part of tomorrow
Please look at me and tell me that
I won’t bring you no more sorrow
‘Cause now we’re running out of space,
I swear the feeling is moving
To something else, it don’t take long
To make me forget
When the tree’s can talk to me and they tell me they know
And a girl who shows me where and she calls me her lover
Yeah she calls me her love
